What You Bring

• Sales Drive: A passion for helping local businesses grow through advertising, along with strong communication, negotiation, and closing ability. Prior ad sales experience helps but isn't required, we provide extensive training both on-site and virtual.
• Persistence: A self-motivated, resilient mindset and a willingness to keep learning and improving.
• Community Mindset: Real interest in building lasting relationships with local business owners and championing their success.

Why City Lifestyle?
