Media Sales Representative
About The Position
Best Version Media is seeking a community-focused outside sales representative to develop a local territory and build a community magazine business. The role begins as an Associate Publisher, selling advertising in a neighborhood magazine and coordinated digital marketing solutions to local businesses. After the magazine reaches its revenue baseline, the representative can graduate to Publisher and earn 70% commission on collected sales above baseline, with the potential to reach 80% through performance incentives.

Bonus earnings are available while building the magazine. The posting cites potential earnings of $65,000+ in year one and $150,000+ in year two, and notes that top performers may exceed $1,000,000 in annual sales volume. The representative meets local business owners in person, helps them reach nearby households, and develops integrated advertising programs that combine magazine placements, digital ads, and online presence. Best Version Media provides structured training, daily live coaching, and local leadership support.
