Job Description:
Are you ready to work hard and resourcefully (and handle some some grunt jobs), as you achieve higher levels of accomplishment? Do you want fair compensation, with a reasonable starting salary, and much personal freedom and autonomy? Then you may want to work with us as a regional publisher.

We publish regional construction newspapers in Ottawa, Toronto, and North Carolina -- and will soon expand the business to other communities, perhaps yours! You will help build and develop the existing products and (when the time is right), participate in the business expansion. This opportunity will appeal to you if you are interested -- and capable! -- in sales and marketing.

You need to be a great salesperson, but also appreciate the background of relationships and the business environment because most people who do business with us respond less to selling than effective marketing communication. If you review our websites and blogs, you'll gain an understanding of the business.

Feel free to email your resume and cover letter; virtually no one is 'screened out' at the early stages. For additional insights, you can review http://www.constructionmarketingideas.blogspot.com/ (for the highest understanding, you should check the earliest archived entries).

Skills:
Most work is daytime business hours, but you should plan on a few evening events/meetings a month. There is little weekend work. You should have access to your own transportation. Experience in sales work is useful, but not essential -- we can show you the ropes if you have the right attributes.

Company Description:
We publish regional construction trade newspapers and websites in several Canadian and U.S. cities. Our goal is primarily about effective selling -- though the selling process in our business is unconventional in that the biggest sales often require the 'purchaser' to spend no money -- while achieving substantial value/results. You will spend much of your time 'connecting' in the community -- and much on the phone -- tracking down leads, arranging appointments, and selling advertising.
