Launch Point Strategy | Full-Time | Hybrid

Join a Team Redefining Local Media

Launch Point Strategy is a full-service digital marketing agency and the driving force behind some of Tampa Bay's most trusted media brands — including the Tampa Bay Beacons, Tampa Bay Times, tbt Weekend, and Bay Magazine, along with award-winning weekly publications serving Pasco, Pinellas, Hernando, Manatee, and Hillsborough counties.

We help local businesses grow through a powerful mix of integrated media solutions — SEM, SEO, social, display, email, streaming, and beyond — paired with the reach and credibility of Tampa Bay's most recognized media names. This isn't your typical ad sales role. It's a chance to build real partnerships with local businesses and help them thrive using tools that actually move the needle.

We're looking for a Business Development Representative to drive integrated media growth across Pinellas County — someone who's motivated, relationship-driven, and energized by the idea of being out in the community, not stuck behind a desk.

What You'll Do

  • Identify, pursue, and close new integrated media opportunities across our full digital and publishing portfolio
  • Manage and grow a defined book of business throughout Pinellas County
  • Design strategic, multi-channel marketing programs tailored to each client's goals
  • Build lasting relationships with local business owners and decision-makers
  • Keep a healthy, active sales pipeline
  • Partner with internal teams to bring campaigns to life
  • Meet and exceed revenue and growth targets

What You Bring

  • Media or sales experience is a plus — but a hunter's mindset matters more
  • Strong communication and presentation skills
  • Confidence prospecting, negotiating, and closing new business
  • Comfort with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Teams
  • Experience with CRM software
  • Sharp time management and organizational instincts
  • A valid driver's license

The Setup

This is a hybrid role built for someone who likes variety — time in the field building relationships across your Pinellas County territory, balanced with flexibility to work from home or our office as needed.
