Position Overview
Are you bored with your current situation and looking for a fast-paced, exciting career where each day is unique? Are you a hard worker, good at solving problems, and enjoy helping businesses succeed? If so, then maybe our Account Executive opening at our television stations KTBY and KYUR in Anchorage, AK may be a perfect fit for you.
We value your opinions and want to develop your creativity so that you can effectively evaluate, analyze, and present clients with the best television advertising solutions for their businesses. We will train, coach, and give you all tools to excel so that you can reap financial rewards from your hard work.
Why us?
We sell cool products! Unlike traditional business development roles that hawk generic widgets, here you’ll be pitching and delivering television media solutions. Where else can you sell ads for the NFL, Primetime shows, and highly rated media events? Every day is an opportunity to create excitement for you, your clients, and the viewing public.
We will also give you a good deal of responsibility and enable you to leverage your creativity and technological knowledge to be successful. Your career is entirely dependent on your desire to learn, work hard, generate business, and build long-lasting client relationships.
And, this a perfect opportunity for people who want to re-enter the workforce, re-invigorate their careers, and are driven to succeed.
What you’ll do
You’ll be responsible for managing the entire sales cycle by sourcing new clients, pitching marketing packages, developing media campaigns, closing contracts, and converting clients into long-term business partners.
You will research market trends, devise methods to attract prospective customers, and formulate sales strategies to reach your personal goals.
You will build your sales pipeline by reaching out to prospective businesses and cultivating new relationships within the local business community.
You will target and show companies using other advertising platforms like radio, print, digital, and cable that they will receive superior value and results through our television offerings.
After new business is generated, you will collaborate with our station’s creative team to help develop and produce client campaigns. You’ll also work with our production crews to create advertising spots and assist in their production.
You will help us diagnose, preserve, and expand our client base by developing new products, delivering excellent customer service, and exceeding customer expectations. You will give our customers proof and comfort that they are making the right decision by advertising with us.
