Sales Associate

Hochberg Sports Marketing (HSM) is the leading US-based sports marketing agency for up-and-coming professional athletes. There is currently a massive gap in the athlete marketing space in which those in growing sports - women's soccer, for example - are largely ignored by the industry. On the other end, startups and other growing companies without seemingly unlimited marketing budgets - brands that would potentially be perfect fits to work with athletes - are unable to break into the industry given the large financial asks of the top 1% of athletes.

Well, that's where HSM comes in. We are the bridge that works on behalf of growing athletes and upstart brands to create win-win partnerships, serving both sides and democratizing sports sponsorship altogether.

HSM is seeking a Partnership Sales Associate to join us and work hand in hand with the company's founder to scale our partnership efforts and assist in making athlete marketing more accessible.

This is a part-time contractor position; hourly pay & fully-remote.

What you will be doing -
- Conduct daily outreach to brands (primarily via cold emails), creatively pitching them on HSM/our athletes and why it is worthwhile to take a call/meeting with us
- Conduct lead generation to build and maintain a healthy pipeline
- Schedule calls and secure meetings with companies for HSM's founder to lead
- Provide weekly reporting to HSM's founder, sharing updates on lead generation, outreach, and strategy
- Other duties as assigned

What you will ideally have already -
- Fluency in English
- 1+ years of sales and/or marketing experience
- Passion for sports marketing
- A joy for the journey; it isn't just about closing deals, but also excitement for the everyday hunt
- High EQ

** NOTE: In addition to submitting your application here, please send a message to ---------- with the below information:
- 1 video (30-60 seconds is perfectly fine) of you discussing an idea for a partnership between a professional athlete and a brand/company
- 1 sample sales email, pitching that athlete to the brand
