OPTYO is a performance marketing agency and brand accelerator built exclusively for eCommerce brands in the sports, fitness, and wellness space. We partner with founder-led brands to drive measurable growth through paid media, creative, email, and conversion-focused web experiences, operating at the intersection of brand and performance where strong creative directly impacts revenue.

Our team brings deep industry specialization and hands-on experience scaling brands from early traction to 7 and 8-figure revenue. At OPTYO, you will work in a fast-paced, results-driven environment with direct exposure to how high-growth D2C brands are built, optimized, and scaled.

• Self-Sourced Pipeline: Supplement BDM-sourced opportunities with creative outreach to brands that fit OPTYO's ideal client profile.
• Consultative Selling: Diagnose each brand's growth challenges across paid media, creative, CRO, and retention, and scope the right multi-service solution.
• Quota Achievement: Meet or exceed monthly and quarterly new revenue targets.
• Account Growth: Identify opportunities to expand client retainers and add project work.
• CRM Management: Accurately document every deal, interaction, and next step in OPTYO's CRM to keep the pipeline transparent and forecasting accurate.
• Market Feedback: Share insights from client conversations with marketing and leadership to refine messaging, offers, and positioning.
• Professional Representation: Uphold a high level of professionalism, embodying the OPTYO brand in all interactions.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• A persistent, goal-oriented mindset with strong attention to detail.
• Familiarity with the sports and fitness industry and/or eCommerce brands is preferred.
• A BA/BS in Marketing, Business, or a related field is preferred.

Compensation

$65,000 to $70,000 base salary plus commission (target first-year OTE $100,000 to $105,000), with a path to Senior Growth Manager.

Location

In person at our San Diego office for candidates based in the San Diego area. Remote (US) for candidates located elsewhere.
