SALES - Sponsorship/ Advertising

Job Description

Wouldn't it be great to sell something your clients LOVE TO BUY!?
When's the last time one of your clients asked to take YOU out to dinner? Or sent you a thank-you note? Or told you that YOUR product was the best they'd bought in 17 years? That's what Eaton Hall's clients say about our unique and effective live business-to-business selling events. They're a fantastic product for you to sell, because your clients love them.

Come, join us and sell a great product to great clients

Our clients include IBM, AT&T, Philips, General Dynamics, Tyco, Rockwell Collins, Adobe, as well as small firms whose entire marketing budget is in our hands. Our customers love our events in technology, construction, law enforcement & public safety, retail, and other niche markets. We've been featured in the industry press and admired by our colleagues as a successful, nimble company that's profiting in B2B media. We're growing, and that's why we need you.

You've sold business media? You love B-to-B? Services?

You'll put your experience selling media, trade shows, advertising or services to work on a successful product that your customers love. Eaton Hall Exhibitions produces targeted face-to-face marketing events that give our clients guaranteed, pre-matched sales appointments with their key buyers within highly-targeted vertical markets.

And we have a great time doing it, too!

Our company President says he's "got the greatest job in the world." We fly our clients to beautiful 5-star resorts, set them up for productive and powerful meetings with exactly the people they need to do business with, and we host our client-friends offering white-glove service with lots of food, drink, entertainment and cigars. What's not to like?

We have no office politics. No boiler-room sales attitudes. Just insanely great service for clients who appreciate it. And a chance for you to join our $1,000,000+ salesmakers with no limits.

Desired Skills & Experience

Have you sold trade show space, advertising, or other media?
If you've sold for Reed, Advanstar, Penton, Nielsen, Pennwell, Cygnus, IIR, IQPC, Crain, ALM or other B2B media companies, if you've sold advertising space or broadcast time, Yellow Pages, or if you're a skilled B2B salesperson who can bring your talents to bear for any great product, then this may be for you.

You'll identify prospects and build your database of leads. You must be able to qualify and build your pipeline.

You'll make well-prepared, consultative phone calls to the prospects you've identified. You may travel to several of our resort hotel events each year, as well as to competitive industry functions.

Most of our selling is done on the phone, but we don't believe in boiler rooms here. Bring your brain, because we value thinking people who know how to sell. We expect results, and we value intelligence.

2+ years of business-to-business telephone sales experience required, with a strong preference for business media. Sales experience in other BtoB intangibles or services is also relevant.

We're a meetings company, but this is NOT a meeting planningor event production position.

(Please don't apply if your only history is in planning or production. You must have sales experience.)

How to Apply:

Since this is a telephone sales position, we'd like to hear how you sell yourself. Call (973) 514-5900 Extension 150 and leave your message. That's a required first step; you'll get no points for going around it.
Then reply with a resume to sgoldman *AT* eatonhall *.com*.

Let's see if you're a match, and if so, we're excited to have you join us as we grow.
