Ascent Digital is growing, and we’re looking for a proven B2B sales hunter to help us reach the next level.
This is not an account management position, and it is not a role for someone who prefers to wait for opportunities to come to them. We are looking for a driven, competitive business development professional who knows how to identify prospects, open doors, build relationships and close new business.
You’ll be selling high-impact digital marketing and advertising solutions to businesses that want to grow. Our services include paid search, local SEO, AI search visibility, social advertising, streaming television, programmatic advertising, video production, website development and more.
Ascent has the team, capabilities, reputation and infrastructure to deliver exceptional results. We’re looking for the right salesperson to bring new clients into that ecosystem and help us continue scaling.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
This role offers a rare combination of stability and upside:
- Competitive base salary

- Unlimited earning potential
- Full employee benefits
- Fully remote work environment
- A broad portfolio of proven marketing solutions
- Strong fulfillment and client success teams supporting what you sell
- Significant opportunity for professional growth and advancement
- The ability to make a meaningful impact within a growing agency
You won’t be limited to selling one narrow product or working inside a small territory. You’ll have the opportunity to build relationships with businesses across multiple industries and markets while offering customized solutions that can genuinely transform their growth.
For the right person, this is an opportunity to build an exceptional income while helping shape the future of one of the region’s fastest-growing marketing agencies.
What You’ll Do

- Meet and exceed monthly, quarterly and annual new-business goals
Who We’re Looking For
You are a motivated, confident and persistent salesperson who takes ownership of results. You enjoy building a pipeline, creating opportunities and winning new business.

- Experience selling recurring-revenue services
- Experience selling to home services businesses, franchise organizations, professional service companies or other small and midsized businesses
- A history of meeting or exceeding sales quotas
You’ll Thrive Here If You Are
- A hunter who enjoys creating opportunities rather than waiting for inbound leads
- Competitive, ambitious and motivated by uncapped earning potential
- Consultative enough to understand a prospect’s business before recommending a solution
- Persistent without being pushy
- Comfortable managing a longer, relationship-driven sales process
