Data-Driven Selling: Utilize listener demographics and download data to build compelling, ROI-driven business cases for advertisers.

Network: An existing book of business and strong relationships with media agencies and direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands is preferred.

Entrepreneurial Spirit: You thrive in a fast-paced, "startup" environment where you have the autonomy to build your own territory.
Mission-Aligned: A genuine interest in financial literacy and empowering listeners to build wealth.
