Director Of Sales

Director Of Sales - Manager

Saga Communications

We are a marketing and advertising company working with small, medium, and large businesses in some of the finest small and mid-markets in the United States. A core focus of our work is managing and scaling high-performing ad campaigns to maximize lead generation and conversion. We specialize in connecting the dots between products, tools, strategy, data, and return on ad spend (ROAS) to giving our clients deeper insight into what’s driving real growth for their business.

We need a serious sales leader who understands pipeline discipline, forecasting, accountability, sales training, and culture.

This is not a desk job. It’s not a spreadsheet job.

What You’ll Lead

This role oversees a team of salespeople selling integrated advertising solutions including:

• Search marketing
• Targeted display
• Paid social
• Audio
• Digital video

Your responsibility isn’t leading a sales team to push products, it’s to ensure every campaign connects strategy to measurable business outcomes. That can only be accomplished with an understanding that the digital advertising tools, products, and strategy only matter if we are able to help local businesses see how those things turn into:

• Website clicks
• Store visits
• Phone calls
• Branded searches
• And revenue

You would want this opportunity to teach, coach, elevate, and build something that gets better because you are here.
