About LocaliQ
At LocaliQ, part of USA TODAY Co., we help businesses grow by bringing together advanced marketing technology, trusted audience reach, and the expertise to turn it into results. In this role, you'll work at the intersection of digital marketing and one of the most trusted media networks in the country—helping businesses connect with customers across the full marketing funnel.

- Build and present data-informed digital and traditional marketing proposals.
- Own the full sales cycle—from initial outreach through close—while maintaining accurate CRM activity.
- Partner with internal account management, creative, and strategy teams.
- Stay engaged post-sale through reporting, optimization, and performance conversations.
Qualifications

- Proficiency with CRM, Microsoft Office Suite, and AI tools.
- Valid driver's license and vehicle insurance.
Benefits

- High-performance culture with recognition and incentives.
- Comprehensive health, dental & vision coverage.
- Unlimited MTO time off, including paid holidays.
- Expense reimbursement.
Step into a territory where you can own the full sales cycle, bring smart marketing solutions to the table, and be recognized for the results you deliver. If you're ready to grow your career and be part of a high-performing team, we encourage you to apply. #LI-SD1 #LI-Hybrid
