Careers at Stylehive

Media Sales Executive

Stylehive.com is currently looking for a Media Sales Executive to join our growing team.

COMPANY: Stylehive.com
The Stylehive is a global social shopping community, dedicated to discovering and sharing the most exciting products, the stores that sell them, and the people that find them.  Our loyal fan base is made up of fashionable women aged 18-45.

The Stylehive team is a talented group of technology and online shopping experts who are passionate about making it easier to find the most interesting products, brands, and designers on the web, while providing a simple way to save and share these finds with others.

Based in San Francisco, the Stylehive brings together the distinct worlds of technology and trendsetting fashion, shopping and online retail. 

POSITION: Media Sales
Stylehive.com is seeking a highly motivated online media sales professional.  We are a fast-paced environment, with huge yearly growth, and an established list of top-tier advertisers.  This position represents our first full-time, professional sales hire.  You will have unrestricted territory, with no account limitations.  Your compensation will be set based on your experience, but you will have unlimited earning potential. 

You will collaborate closely with the marketing and editorial groups on developing new products and services for our clients, and have direct access to the President and the CEO.  As additional sales staffers are hired, there will be the opportunity for promotion into management and executive roles.  This is an ideal position for the experienced media sales person who values autonomy, and who works best without a lot of messy bureaucracy.

The Company has many reference-able clients that have already renewed their contracts. This is an excellent opportunity to get in early before the company hits its valuation growth acceleration.

LOCATION: San Francisco
The ideal employee will be able to drive to San Francisco for company and client meetings.  Since the territory is worldwide, travel will be required and in-office “face-time” is not required.  As long as your sales goals are met, you control your time and can work from wherever you choose.

COMPENSATION:
The compensation package will be based on experience but will include: base salary, unlimited quota upside with accelerators, and stock options.  Plus, we offer a full benefits package.

MANAGEMENT STYLE/CORPORATE CULTURE:
Until the sales team grows larger, this position will report directly to the President.  Goals will be developed together with the President and you will have significant freedom to determine how best to meet your goals.  The company is extremely cooperative and tight-knit, and you will be well supported as you come up the learning curve.

Stylehive is a lean, autonomous, performance-based culture.  Our corporate culture is very team oriented.  There is open communication and exchange of new ideas.  You will have as much support needed to be successful, but will not be slowed down by excessive bureaucracy.

POSITION REQUIREMENTS:

• Recent and significant experience selling new media and/or online advertising to advertising agencies, retailers and big name brands such as Coca-Cola, Visa, Ford, Target, Wal-Mart, Sony, Apple, Ogilvy & Mather, Leo Burnet, McCann, etc.
• A well developed “Rolodex” of key contacts (decision makers) at ad agencies, retailers and big name brands.
• Understanding of online media businesses, social networking and luxury brand advertisers.
• A record of quota over-achievement.
• We Prefer candidates who have experience taking a company from startup to a significant media sales organization.
• Exceptional degree of intelligence, analytic skill, conceptual thinking, common sense and leadership. Strong business acumen.
• As one of the faces of Stylehive you will have the opportunity to interact with others at all levels in the fashion community.  As such, you must present an appropriately stylish image.
• Driven, passionate, self-starter, able to execute and deliver with minimal oversight.
