Media Advisor - Sales

Des Moines Media Group, Des Moines, IA, United States


We are a marketing and advertising company partnering with small, medium, and large businesses in Des Moines, Iowa.

Our mission is simple but powerful:

Help local businesses get Wanted. Found. Chosen.

We do that by connecting strategy, creative, data, and media execution into measurable business outcomes. We are not in the business of selling ads. We are in the business of helping business owners:

Increase foot traffic

Show up higher and more often in search

Outperform their competitors

We need a serious sales professional who understands that modern advertising is about guiding the consumer journey — from awareness to action.

This is not a “spot pusher” job.

This is not a transactional sales role.

This is a strategic marketing position built around performance, accountability, and growth.

What You’ll Do You will work directly with local business owners to build integrated advertising solutions that include:

Website strategy

But tools are not the point.

Your responsibility is to connect those tools to outcomes.

Every proposal, every conversation, every campaign must answer:

How does this help the business become Wanted, Found, and Chosen?

Because at the end of the day, what matters is:

More inbound calls

More branded searches

More sales

You are not selling inventory.

You are designing growth.

What You’ll Own Revenue & Pipeline Discipline

Build and maintain a strong, active prospect pipeline

Consistently prospect and open new accounts

Forecast accurately and manage deal flow

Grow both new and existing client revenue

Identify competitive gaps and growth opportunities

Build integrated, performance-focused proposals

Tie every recommendation back to measurable outcomes

Present confidently and close decisively

Market Presence

Become known in the community as a marketing resource

Develop strong relationships with business owners

Represent the company professionally in public settings

Stay informed on industry trends and consumer behavior

Execution Partnership

Collaborate with digital and creative teams

Ensure campaigns launch correctly and on time

Monitor results and communicate performance clearly

Identify upsell and optimization opportunities

The Type of Professional Who Thrives Here

Comfortable prospecting and asking for business

Competitive and growth-minded

Coachable and open to ongoing training

Disciplined with pipeline management

Confident presenting to business owners and decision-makers

Understands that marketing is about strategy, not just products

Self-motivated and accountable

You will succeed here if you believe:

Advertising only works if it drives action.

Action only matters if it drives revenue.

Revenue is the only scoreboard that counts.

Why This Role Is Different You are not selling radio.

You are not selling digital impressions.

You are guiding the consumer journey:

From someone who doesn’t know a business exists…

To someone who searches for them…

To someone who chooses them.

That transformation is what you sell.

This is a performance-based role with significant upside.

On average, total compensation (base + commission) ranges from $70,000 to $120,000+ annually, with top performers exceeding that.

Benefits include:

Ongoing sales and marketing training

Career growth opportunities

If you want a job, this isn’t it.

If you want to build relationships, drive measurable growth for local businesses, and get paid for performance — we should talk.
