Why KXLY Brands?

We care about your life outside work as much as the work you do to help local businesses thrive. You'll receive training, support and the opportunity to build a rewarding sales career while developing lasting client relationships.

Successful candidates bring:

• Strong communication, relationship-building and presentation skills.
• A proactive approach to prospecting and closing new business.
• Excellent organization, follow-through and ability to work independently.
• A collaborative, accountable and customer-focused mindset.
• Sales experience in media, retail, automotive, insurance or a related field is helpful-but not required. We will train ambitious candidates with the right attitude and drive.
• Ability to work primarily face-to-face with clients in the Spokane/Coeur d'Alene market.

What you'll receive:

You'll join a supportive team of colleagues and leaders who value your work, time and perspective. We are committed to helping employees grow professionally and personally-80% of our senior leaders have been promoted from within.

We offer a comprehensive sales training program and the opportunity to work with talented professionals throughout the broadcast and digital marketing industry.

Pay range: $42,000-$150,000 per year, including supplemental pay such as commission. Compensation is based on experience, performance and the sales opportunities you create. A $50 monthly cell phone allowance is included.
