Develop and deliver consultative pitches that align advertiser objectives to Paved solutions (newsletter sponsorships, dedicated sends, ad network.), with clear measurement plans and success criteria.
Collaborate on proposal development and pricing/packaging strategy in partnership with internal teams (Account Management/CS, Ad Ops, Publisher team, Marketing), ensuring campaigns are sold effectively and set up for success.
Maintain accurate pipeline, pacing, and forecasting in CRM; provide weekly updates on deal stage, next steps, risks, and close plans.
Use advertiser KPIs (e.g., CTR, CVR, CPA/CPL, ROAS, lift, reach/frequency, CAC/LTV where applicable) to position value, set expectations, and drive repeatable renewal/expansion conversations.
Gather market feedback (buyer objections, category trends, creative learnings) and share internally to improve positioning, products, and go-to-market strategy.

After 1 week

Complete onboarding on Paved’s marketplace, inventory types, pricing/packaging, and core sales motions; understand how newsletter/email performance is measured and communicated to advertisers.
Set up your territory/vertical focus, build an initial target list (brands + agencies), and create outreach sequences with messaging frameworks and talk tracks.
Get fully operational in CRM (pipeline stages, forecasting hygiene, activity expectations), and begin logging outreach/activity consistently.
Shadow sales calls and internal handoffs (AM/CS, Ad Ops/publisher-facing teams), and start running discovery on a small number of prospects with manager support.

Actively manage a live pipeline of qualified opportunities across brand-direct and agency, with clear next steps, stakeholders mapped, and forecast updates maintained weekly.

After 6 months

Produce a predictable pipeline engine and demonstrate strong pacing toward quota via a repeatable prospecting + closing cadence.
Close and renew/expand a portfolio of advertisers (mix of brand-direct + agency), building multi-campaign relationships and referrals.
Become a go-to resource on selling newsletter/email media with strong command of performance narratives, KPI benchmarking, and optimization levers (creative, audience fit, offer/landing page considerations, etc.).
Consistently deliver accurate forecasts and deal plans; contribute to team playbooks (objection handling, vertical learnings, winning pitch decks).
