Jpixx is hiring our first dedicated outbound sales hire to help us proactively grow new business.

We’ve grown for over a decade through referrals and reputation. Now, we’re ready to build a more intentional outbound sales engine — and we’re looking for someone who enjoys opening doors, starting conversations, and selling creative solutions.

This is not a marketing role and not an account manager role.

This is a new business / hunter role.

You’ll partner directly with the founders and production team to bring in new opportunities and help shape how we sell.

This Role Is a Fit If You:

• Enjoy outbound prospecting and starting new conversations
• Are comfortable building pipeline from scratch
• Have experience selling services or ideas (creative, marketing, media, SaaS, consulting, etc.)
• Like working in a small, collaborative environment
• Want to help build something — not step into a rigid corporate system

Core Responsibilities:

Outbound Prospecting & Lead Generation

• Identify and reach out to potential commercial, nonprofit, and government clients
• Use email, phone, LinkedIn, and networking to generate meetings
• Build and manage an active pipeline

Discovery & Sales Conversations

• Lead discovery calls
• Present Jpixx’s capabilities and approach clearly
• Understand client goals and align creative solutions

Proposal & Deal Support

• Collaborate with producers and owners on project scope
• Support proposals and estimates
• Negotiate budgets and timelines
• Close new business ethically and professionally

Early Relationship Management

• Maintain communication through kickoff
• Ensure smooth handoff to production
• Identify future or ongoing opportunities

What You Will NOT Do:

• Run marketing campaigns
• Manage video projects or creative teams
• Handle operations or internal production logistics
• Own long RFP writing alone

Your focus is new business generation, not production.

Qualifications

Required

• 1–5 years in sales or business development
• Experience selling services (not just products)
• Comfortable with outbound outreach
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Able to work independently and manage your own pipeline

Nice to Have

• Experience with creative or video environments
• Comfort with longer sales cycles
• Familiarity with government or regulated industries

Additional Information

Compensation

• Base salary range: $50,000–$60,000 depending on experience
• Commission is paid on new business and designed to grow meaningfully as relationships, deal size and momentum over time.
• Commission structure and performance expectations discussed during early interview stages one-on-one.

Location Requirement

This is a local, in-person role.

Applicants must live in — or be willing to relocate to — the Hampton Roads / Virginia Beach area.

We are not considering fully remote candidates. We may be open to Hybrid or discussing thisat some future point.

Why Work With Jpixx

• First strategic sales hire — real influence
• Strong creative portfolio and reputation
• Supportive, collaborative team
• Opportunity to shape sales strategy and grow earnings over time'
