About the job

As an Inside Sales Representative on our Advertising team, you’ll help grow one of the most compelling place-based media networks in the country: real environments, real audiences, and high-dwell consumer moments. You’ll work directly with SMB, regional, mid-market, and select national advertisers owning relationships from outbound prospecting through close, renewal, and account growth.

This is a true full-cycle sales role with a strong outbound focus. You’ll build pipeline, develop media recommendations, close business, manage renewals, and grow long-term advertiser relationships. Success in this role requires strong prospecting discipline, comfort operating autonomously, and curiosity about the evolving digital out-of-home (DOOH), retail media, and advertising landscape.

Why Rockbot

  • A front-row seat in two rapidly growing advertising categories: DOOH and retail media
  • Backed by Google and Universal Music Group; trusted by brands across fitness, restaurants, retail, hospitality, and entertainment
  • A media platform that delivers measurable real-world audience engagement
  • A high-ownership environment where strong performers can directly influence revenue growth
  • Competitive compensation with uncapped commission, equity, benefits, and meaningful career growth opportunities

What You’ll Do

Build and Manage Outbound Pipeline

  • Prospect and develop new advertising opportunities across SMB, regional, and mid-market accounts, with exposure to select national advertisers and agencies
  • Generate pipeline through outbound outreach, relationship-building, networking, referrals, and market research
  • Develop fluency in Rockbot’s place-based media inventory across audio, TV, and digital signage offerings
  • Identify advertisers with strong contextual, audience, or event-based alignment opportunities across Rockbot venues and audiences

Own the Full Sales Cycle

  • Qualify opportunities, pitch solutions, develop media recommendations and proposals, negotiate terms, and close business
  • Manage advertiser and agency relationships from first conversation through renewal and account expansion
  • Educate advertisers and agencies on the value of reaching consumers in high-dwell, real-world environments
  • Partner cross-functionally with Ad Operations and Account Management to support campaign execution and advertiser success

Drive Revenue Growth

  • Meet or exceed monthly and quarterly revenue goals through disciplined pipeline management and consistent outbound activity
  • Balance hunting new business with managing renewals, repeat business, and account growth opportunities
  • Learn how different advertiser verticals, media objectives, and campaign strategies impact sales performance
  • Use campaign performance insights and client feedback to identify optimization and upsell opportunities

Operate with Strong Sales Discipline

  • Maintain accurate opportunity tracking, forecasting, and pipeline hygiene in Salesforce and HubSpot
  • Prioritize high-potential opportunities using data, market insights, and advertiser demand signals
  • Contribute market feedback, competitive insights, and advertiser trends during team planning discussions
  • Operate effectively in a lean, evolving environment where sales reps maintain significant ownership over the customer experience

Requirements:

  • A college degree (BA, BS, or equivalent) is required
  • 1–4 years of experience in advertising, media, media sales, media planning, media buying, account management, client services, agency services, or consultative sales
  • Prior experience within advertising agencies, media agencies, publishers, digital media companies, broadcast media, retail media networks, digital out-of-home media or ad tech strongly preferred
  • Experience prospecting and generating pipeline in a high-volume outbound environment, or a demonstrated desire to transition from a client-facing advertising or media role into a sales-focused career path
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills with the ability to adapt messaging across advertisers, agencies, and business stakeholders
  • Genuine interest in advertising, media, consumer behavior, audience targeting, campaign strategy, digital out-of-home, retail media, or omnichannel marketing
  • Ability to discuss campaign objectives, audience alignment, media recommendations, and business outcomes with prospective advertisers
  • An interest in owning a full-cycle sales process with meaningful autonomy and accountability
  • Familiarity with CRM and sales engagement tools (Salesforce and HubSpot preferred)
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-moving, evolving environment with lean support structures
  • Located in or willing to work West Coast hours (Pacific or Mountain time)
