About the Role

Manage and convert inbound demand for Affiliate and Influencer Marketing Services. This is an operational, full-cycle closing role where you will qualify, route, and run the sales process on inbound opportunities, taking deals under $250K in annual contract value from first conversation through signed contract. This is not a prospecting or outbound role; your focus is on qualifying leads, routing opportunities outside your scope, and running a tight sales process.

Responsibilities

  • Own the intake of inbound leads generated by our marketing team.
  • Qualify each opportunity quickly and accurately, and route anything outside your scope to the right owner.
  • Manage qualified deals under $250K ACV from first contact through close, including negotiation and contracting.
  • Own the timeline and keep the process moving.
  • Ask the right questions, understand each prospect's business challenges, and build the strategic recommendation yourself, showing how Affiliate and Influencer Marketing can drive measurable growth for their business.
  • Present your recommendation directly to the prospect.
  • Maintain rigorous CRM hygiene and accurate forecasting on your book of inbound opportunities.
  • Stay current on the Affiliate and Influencer Marketing space to be a credible, trusted advisor to every prospect.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated track record of closing deals under $250K in annual contract value, owning the strategic pitch yourself without handing it off.
  • Comfortable managing a fast-moving, full sales cycle, sometimes with multiple stakeholders, sometimes with a single decision-maker.
  • Experience selling into marketing or ecommerce departments at growing or mid-sized companies is a strong plus.
  • Deep understanding of the digital marketing space, with specific knowledge in one or more of: Affiliate / Influencer, customer acquisition strategy, revenue growth marketing, mobile marketing, CRM and lifecycle marketing, or ecommerce growth channels.
  • Ability to speak credibly with marketing buyers about performance, measurement, and channel strategy.
  • Salesforce required; HubSpot an advantage.
  • AI fluency, using AI tools to work smarter in research, proposal development, or pipeline management.
  • Proficient in Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
  • Comfortable owning a deal solo, from qualified inbound lead through signed contract, pulling in marketing or sales support for collateral and modeling but not reliant on anyone else to carry the narrative.
  • Strong time management and prioritization across a steady flow of inbound opportunities.
  • Sharp qualification instincts and good judgment about what to route elsewhere.
  • Mature judgment, adaptability, and the ability to solve problems independently in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
  • AI fluent and committed to continuous improvement.
  • 3+ years of digital marketing or marketing services sales experience.
  • Demonstrated experience closing full-cycle deals independently, without dedicated strategy or account management support.
  • Experience selling into marketing and/or ecommerce departments at mid-sized or growing brands.
  • Experience managing and qualifying inbound lead flow.
  • A genuine interest in AI tools, including hands-on experience integrating AI into your work.
  • Must be based in the US in the Eastern or Central time zone.
