Launch Point Strategy | Full-Time | Hybrid

Join a Team Redefining Local Media

Launch Point Strategy is a full-service digital marketing agency and the driving force behind some of Tampa Bay's most trusted media brands — including the Tampa Bay Beacons, Tampa Bay Times, tbt Weekend, and Bay Magazine, along with award-winning weekly publications serving Pasco, Pinellas, Hernando, Manatee, and Hillsborough counties.

We help local businesses grow through a powerful mix of integrated media solutions — SEM, SEO, social, display, email, streaming, and beyond — paired with the reach and credibility of Tampa Bay's most recognized media names. This isn't your typical ad sales role. It's a chance to build real partnerships with local businesses and help them thrive using tools that actually move the needle.

What You'll Do

• Identify, pursue, and close new integrated media opportunities across our full digital and publishing portfolio
• Manage and grow a defined book of business throughout Pinellas County
• Design strategic, multi-channel marketing programs tailored to each client's goals
• Build lasting relationships with local business owners and decision-makers
• Partner with internal teams to bring campaigns to life
• Meet and exceed revenue and growth targets

What You Bring

• Media or sales experience is a plus — but a hunter's mindset matters more
• Strong communication and presentation skills
• Confidence prospecting, negotiating, and closing new business
• Comfort with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Teams
• Experience with CRM software
• Sharp time management and organizational instincts
• A valid driver's license
