Original job description
Launch Point Strategy | Full-Time | Hybrid Join a Team Redefining Local Media Launch Point Strategy is a full-service digital marketing agency and the driving force behind some of Tampa Bay's most trusted media brands - including the Tampa Bay Beacons, Tampa Bay Times, tbt Weekend, and Bay Magazine, along with award-winning weekly publications serving Pasco, Pinellas, Hernando, Manatee, and Hillsborough counties. We help local businesses grow through a powerful mix of integrated media solutions - SEM, SEO, social, display, email, streaming, and beyond - paired with the reach and credibility of Tampa Bay's most recognized media names. This isn't your typical ad sales role. It's a chance to build real partnerships with local businesses and help them thrive using tools that actually move the needle. We're looking for a Business Development Representative to drive integrated media growth across Pinellas County - someone who's motivated, relationship-driven, and energized by the idea of being out in the community, not stuck behind a desk. What You'll Do
- Identify, pursue, and close new integrated media opportunities across our full digital and publishing portfolio
- Manage and grow a defined book of business throughout Pinellas County
- Design strategic, multi-channel marketing programs tailored to each client's goals
- Build lasting relationships with local business owners and decision-makers
- Keep a healthy, active sales pipeline
- Partner with internal teams to bring campaigns to life
- Meet and exceed revenue and growth targets
What You Bring
- Media or sales experience is a plus - but a hunter's mindset matters more
- Strong communication and presentation skills
- Confidence prospecting, negotiating, and closing new business
- Comfort with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Teams
- Experience with CRM software
- Sharp time management and organizational instincts
- A valid driver's license
The Setup This is a hybrid role built for someone who likes variety - time in the field building relationships across your Pinellas County territory, balanced with flexibility to work from home or our office as needed.
