  • The Mindset: You understand the unique business landscape of Marin and the North Bay. You have a proven track record of exceeding sales targets, not just meeting them
  • The Skills: You are a gifted communicator and presenter. You are tech-savvy, proficient in sales CRM/analytics, and able to negotiate complex contracts with ease
  • The Passion: You believe in the power of local news. You understand that when a local business thrives, the entire community benefits, and you are driven to make that happen
