Join One of Minnesota's Most Trusted Media Brands

As Minnesota Monthly prepares to celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2027, Greenspring Media is seeking an exceptional media sales professional to help shape the next chapter of our continued growth.

For nearly six decades, Minnesota Monthly has been one of the state's most respected lifestyle media brands, connecting businesses with highly engaged consumers through award-winning print publications, digital marketing, custom publishing, visitor guides, events, and integrated marketing solutions.

If you're an experienced media sales professional who enjoys building long-term client relationships while driving new business, we'd love to talk with you.

About the Opportunity

This is not an entry-level sales position. We are seeking a Senior Media Account Executive with a minimum of five years of successful print and digital media sales experience.

Unlike many media sales opportunities, this position includes an established book of business, allowing you to generate immediate revenue while growing existing client relationships and developing new business.

Success in this role requires someone who is strategic, consultative, self-motivated, and accountable. We're looking for someone who enjoys collaborating with teammates, delivers exceptional customer service, and isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves to help the entire team succeed.

What You'll Do

• Manage, retain, and grow an established portfolio of advertising clients.
• Prospect and develop new business opportunities through strategic outreach and relationship building.
• Create customized integrated marketing solutions utilizing print, digital, sponsored content, custom publishing, visitor guides, email marketing, and white-label digital marketing services.
• Present strategic marketing recommendations that help clients achieve measurable business results.
• Expand client partnerships across Greenspring Media's diverse portfolio of brands and products.
• Consistently meet and exceed monthly and annual revenue goals while maintaining a healthy sales pipeline.
• Collaborate with editorial, creative, digital, production, and leadership teams to deliver exceptional client experiences.
• Ultimate Travel Guide
• Custom Publications
• Print & Digital Advertising
• White-Label Digital Marketing Solutions
• Sponsored Content
• Email Marketing
• Integrated Marketing Campaigns

Qualifications

• Minimum of five years of successful print and digital media sales experience
• Demonstrated success growing existing accounts while generating new business
• Strong consultative selling, presentation, and negotiation skills
• Proven ability to build long-term client relationships
• Excellent communication and organizational skills
• Self-motivated with a competitive drive and results-oriented mindset
• Collaborative, accountable, and positive team player
• Experience using CRM software and Microsoft Office
• Uncapped commission plan with significant earning potential
• Established book of business with substantial growth opportunity
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k)
• Paid vacation and holidays
• Hybrid work environment
• Professional development and career growth opportunities

Why Greenspring Media?
