Pros

Remote, able to craft own schedule

Cons

Base pay is just above minimum wage. Expected to make +80 ice-cold calls daily. Upper Mgmt is run by a family and is in its own world Extremely cheap and nickel and dime on everything. Sales tools are from the 90's and marketing is nonexistent in the life of a rep as you are on your own selling ads that no one sees.

As a current employee, I hope you’ll reach out to your manager, or me personally. Upper Management is a team of professionals with an average of over 10 years in the industry, and are not related to the family who owns the company – so we’re all vested in the success of the ad sales team! Yes, the role requires an individual who can make cold calls, but we do invest heavily in lead resources and lead management software to help our team succeed. Base pay is a salary is only part of the total compensation, and we find that on our team of nearly 150 full-time Ad Sales professionals the average pay is nearly 2X salary and lands well over $80K per year. We just hosted 82 of our top ad sellers and account managers along with their guest at our Circle of Excellence trip to Cancun, MX – anyone can qualify, it’s not just for the top 10. Our successful sellers believe in the product, and the value we bring to the advertisers who want to reach our targeted audiences in communities we serve across the U.S. Please reach out to me if you don’t feel your manager is supporting your efforts. -Tim Potrikus, CRO
