About Niched

Niched is the sales engine behind leading media companies—podcasts, newsletters, and YouTube channels—looking to scale revenue through sponsorships. Backed by data-driven intent signals, we help our partners maximize their advertising potential.

The Opportunity

We're bringing on experienced Sponsorship Sales Partners to help scale our advertising and brand partnership revenue. This opportunity is structured to support:

  • Sellers who want to make this a primary revenue focus
  • Experienced AEs, consultants, or media sellers who want flexibility to bring in deals alongside an existing role

The Role

You will own the full sales cycle across podcast and digital sponsorship opportunities—from prospecting through close—using Niched's data, systems, and active media partnerships. This is not a lead-gen or appointment-setting role. This is a true revenue seat.

Responsibilities

  • Identify and pursue potential advertisers and sponsorship partners
  • Build and manage a live sales pipeline
  • Execute consistent outreach across email, LinkedIn, and warm introductions
  • Pitch podcast, newsletter, and YouTube sponsorship opportunities
  • Clearly communicate audience value, positioning, and performance
  • Close new sponsorship and advertising agreements
  • Coordinate with internal stakeholders to ensure campaigns are delivered smoothly
  • Provide regular updates on outreach, pipeline, and closed revenue

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in podcast advertising, sponsorship sales, or media sales
  • Comfort owning a full sales cycle in a remote, autonomous environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to pitch both ad placements and larger integrated partnerships
  • Understanding of ad formats (podcast, newsletter, and YouTube)
  • Organized pipeline management habits
  • Independent, reliable, and outcome-driven
  • Existing brand or agency relationships are a strong plus
  • Comfortable working in a performance-based, commission-only structure

Compensation

This is a commission-only independent contractor role. You earn a generous percentage of all sponsorship and advertising revenue you close.

No cap on earnings
Short sales cycles
High deal values
Monthly performance bonuses

Commission structure is negotiable based on experience and scope.

Why Niched

Sell into leading publishers, not speculative interest
Work with real inventory, real partners, and real buyers
Data, systems, and proven methods to close more business
Grow into a senior revenue role as Niched scales

No micromanagement. Success is measured by pipeline and revenue.

How to Apply

If this sounds like a fit, send a short intro and your resume or LinkedIn profile. Include a few sentences on why you're interested, your sponsorship or media sales experience, and the types of brands or deals you've closed. Relevant deal examples are a big plus.
