Digital Marketing Account Executive at Zimmer… · Overland…

Zimmer Marketing is expanding into the Kansas City market, and we're looking for an experienced, driven digital marketing sales professional to help lead that growth.

We're seeking someone who knows the Overland Park and greater Kansas City business community, enjoys opening doors, and understands how to help businesses grow through effective digital marketing strategies.

This is an opportunity for an established sales professional to help build Zimmer Marketing's presence in a new market, develop meaningful client relationships, and grow a portfolio of business with the support of an experienced marketing, creative, and digital team.

We're not looking for someone who simply sells advertising products. We're looking for someone who can identify business challenges, develop smart marketing solutions, and build long-term partnerships.

Our primary focus is on core digital marketing solutions, including paid search, targeted display advertising, geofencing, connected TV, streaming audio, paid social media, SEO, and website development.

If you have a strong understanding of digital advertising, an established network of business relationships, and the drive to help grow a new market, we'd like to talk.

About the Role

As a Digital Marketing Account Executive, you'll focus on developing new business throughout Overland Park, Johnson County, and the greater Kansas City metropolitan area.

You'll have the opportunity to build your own client portfolio while representing a full-service marketing company with the resources to develop, execute, and optimize effective campaigns.

Key Responsibilities:

• Establish and grow Zimmer Marketing's presence in the Kansas City / Overland Park market.
• Identify, prospect, and develop new business relationships with local and regional companies.
• Build relationships with business owners, marketing directors, executives, and key decision-makers.
• Sell digital marketing solutions, with an emphasis on paid search (SEM), targeted display, geofencing, OTT/CTV, streaming audio, paid social, SEO, and website development.
• Evaluate prospective clients' business goals, marketing challenges, competitive landscape, and opportunities for growth.
• Develop customized digital marketing strategies designed to generate measurable results.
• Present proposals, negotiate agreements, and close new business.
• Pursue established businesses, multi-location companies, and growing organizations with meaningful marketing budgets.
• Develop recurring monthly and annual advertising relationships, with opportunities to grow accounts into $25,000–$100,000+ annual partnerships.
• Manage and grow client relationships through ongoing communication, campaign reviews, and strategic recommendations.
• Collaborate with Zimmer Marketing's digital strategy, creative, and campaign management teams to deliver successful campaigns.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of successful experience in digital advertising sales, agency business development, media sales, or related B2B marketing sales.
• A strong understanding of digital advertising products and how they help businesses attract customers and generate revenue.
• Experience selling solutions such as Google Ads, programmatic display, geofencing, connected TV, paid social, SEO, or related digital services.
• Familiarity with the Overland Park, Johnson County, and greater Kansas City business community.
• Demonstrated success prospecting, developing, and closing new business.
• Ability to confidently communicate with business owners, marketing directors, and senior decision-makers.
• A consultative sales approach focused on understanding client needs rather than selling individual products.
• Strong presentation, communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
• Self-motivation, accountability, and the ability to work independently while helping develop a new market.
• Experience managing recurring advertising relationships and growing existing accounts.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Existing business relationships throughout the Kansas City metropolitan area.
• Previous experience with a digital marketing agency, advertising company, or media organization.
• Experience selling recurring digital marketing campaigns with monthly budgets of $2,000–$10,000+.
• A proven record of developing new territories or expanding business into new markets.
• Experience working with multi-location businesses or regional advertisers.
