Media Advisor

Mitchell Media Group (Full-time) | $39,000+ (First-year earnings: base + commission)

Your sales experience is worth more here.

If you’re good at sales and tired of capped commissions, micromanagement, or selling something you don’t care about, this is the move.

As a Media Advisor, you’ll help local businesses grow using Google Ads, targeted digital display, streaming audio, and radio. You’re not pushing a product. You’re building a plan that gets your clients more leads, calls, and customers, and you can show them the results.

What you get

  • Real earning potential. [Base salary/guaranteed draw] plus [uncapped] commission. The more your clients grow, the more you make.
  • Paid training. No media experience needed. We’ll teach you digital marketing, Google Ads, and audio advertising, skills that stay on your résumé for life.
  • Control of your day. You manage your own schedule and client list. No one is hovering over your shoulder.
  • Work that isn’t stuck at a desk. You’re out meeting business owners, brainstorming ideas, and seeing your campaigns live in the community.
  • Visible impact. You’ll watch the businesses you work with get busier, hire, and expand, in the town you live in.
  • A full toolbox. Digital, streaming, news and broadcast under one roof, so you can always offer what fits the client, not just what you have to sell.
  • [Health/dental/vision, 401(k) with match, vacation, sick, paid holidays]

What you’ll do

  • Find and connect with local and regional businesses that want to grow
  • Learn their goals and build advertising plans to match
  • Work with our creative and digital teams to launch campaigns
  • Review results with clients and keep improving them

What you bring

  • Sales experience in any industry: retail, auto, insurance, wireless, B2B, hospitality
  • Comfort starting conversations and following up
  • Curiosity about how businesses work and how marketing drives results
  • Self-motivation; you don’t need someone telling you what to do next
  • A valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
