Oath is the new opportunity created by the merger of Yahoo and AOL under Verizon. For the first time, one sales team is now able to sell AOL, MSN, and Yahoo! all with the power of Verizon’s data and technology. Among other advantages, this is the value proposition our AD’s can offer their clients at Oath.
The result: Our clients can efficiently promote their products and services to billions of consumers with one buy, in any format they choose: Search, Native, Sponsorships, Video, Mobile, Social and DSP, all with true 1st party data from 1B+ users. They also have exclusive opportunities on Yahoo, AOL and MSN properties they can’t get anywhere else.
Our Team:
We are a team in the truest sense: smart, motivated, professionals who cheer for their peers when they win, and help them up when they miss. Our culture is fueled by collaboration and great camaraderie between AD’s as well as the leadership team. We thrive in consistent change, and win by identifying the the best opportunities for our clients. This reputation precedes us and has been built over 16 years. We are a best-in-class sales team that has fun selling a product we can (and should) believe in.
This role is a hunter AND farmer role. Find it, close it, keep it, grow it.
The ideal candidate has a proven track record in online and/or traditional media sales and a comfortability with adtech. We're looking for energetic self-starters with a consultative sales approach who are proactive in finding new business, and growing / cross-selling current clients.
The perfect candidate is expected to hit a sales quota through a high volume of outbound activity, coupled with the understanding of Oath’s mission and the ability to articulate our value proposition to advertisers.
