Digital Automotive Advertising Sales Manager

About the Opportunity We are partnering with a highly established, fast-growing Automotive Digital Advertising Agency that has been driving real, measurable results for over 15 years. Unlike typical agencies that merely resell third-party platforms, this firm has built a unique, proprietary in-house product suite spanning SEO, SEM, Programmatic display, and an exclusive SaaS platform.

The Role We are seeking a highly driven Automotive Advertising Sales Consultant to take ownership of a regional market. This is an Outside Sales role built for a true "Road Warrior" and Digital Consultant who understands how to partner with retail automotive stores to optimize their marketing budgets, increase lead volume, and dominate local markets.

You will be responsible for targeting new car franchises and individual dealership rooftops, auditing their current digital presence, and pitching comprehensive ad strategies directly to the decision-makers on the showroom floor.

What You Will Do

• Hunt & Pitch: Prospect via high-volume cold calling, in-person dealership drop-ins, and social media outreach to secure meetings with Dealer Principals and General Managers at the retail/rooftop level.
• Consultative Selling: Conduct virtual and in-person meetings to educate customers on industry trends, audit their current websites and ad spend, and deliver custom, data-backed presentations.
• Technical Analysis: Analyze current dealership marketing strategies (Paid Search, SEO, Programmatic) and recommend in-house solutions that solve specific pain points.
• Pipeline Management: Balance a daily workflow of prospecting, responding to leads, scheduling, and conducting appointments using modern CRM tools.
• Relationship Building: Develop and foster long-term, trusted advisory relationships with prospects and clients to drive retention and monthly residual growth.

What We Are Looking For

• Proven Track Record: 5–10+ years of progressive B2B sales and business development experience, with a documented history of exceeding quotas.
• Automotive Digital Experience: Direct experience selling digital advertising (SEO, SEM, targeted display) into the automotive industry (New Car Dealers and Franchises). Note: This is a retail-level (Tier 3) sales role, not an OEM or enterprise dealer group sales role.
• The "Drop-In" Mentality: You possess a highly organized, self-starter mentality. You aren't afraid to walk onto the showroom floor, bypass the gatekeeper, ask for the GM, and confidently command the room.
• Technical Aptitude: You can speak fluently about website optimization, lead generation, and Google Analytics without relying on a support team.

Why Join This Team?

• Incredible Earning Potential: Competitive base salary + an aggressive commission structure offering 75% of upfront revenue sold, plus monthly residuals for the first 12 months of every account.
• Top-Tier Tech: You aren't selling a white-labeled commodity. You are selling a proprietary AdTech suite that actually delivers ROI for dealers.
• Comprehensive Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, and PTO.

Pay: $80,000.00 - $100,000.00 per year
