<p><span data-teams="true"><strong>Senior Sales Closer — AI-Powered PR &amp; Media Placement</strong><br>Base: $120K–$150K | OTE: $165K–$195K | Top Performers: $250K+ (Uncapped)<br>Full-Time | Individual Contributor</span></p> <p><strong>THE OPPORTUNITY</strong></p> <p>We hand you a full calendar of qualified prospects every day. You close.</p> <p>No prospecting. No cold calling. No pipeline generation. No RFP writing. No conference schmoozing. We have a proprietary AI-powered outbound engine that analyzes 300,000+ daily media stories, tracks 250,000+ journalist relationships, and generates a steady stream of qualified decision-makers who want to talk. Your only job is to get on Zoom, run the conversation, and close.</p> <p>Our top-performing closers earn $250K+ annually. Here’s the math: 6 deals/month at an average of $8,500 MRR ($102K ACV) with commission accelerators and retention bonuses. The commission is uncapped. The leads are provided. The product sells. You just have to be the person who can close it.</p> <p>If you’re currently spending 30–50% of your time generating your own pipeline, imagine what you could do with that time back. That’s what this role offers.</p> <p><strong>WHAT WE DO</strong></p> <p>Interdependence is the fastest-growing AI-powered PR and earned media placement firm in the country. We combine proprietary technology with world-class communication professionals to get our clients covered in the media outlets that matter — Forbes, Bloomberg, Wall Street Journal, CNN, industry-leading trade publications, and top-tier podcasts.</p> <p>What makes us different: we guarantee results. While traditional PR agencies charge $10K/month retainers, we back our placements with performance guarantees. Our technology identifies the right journalists, the right stories, and the right timing — and our team executes. It’s why we’re growing while the traditional agency model is dying.</p> <p>We sell to VPs of Marketing, CMOs, and CEOs at companies with 50–200+ employees across virtually every industry. Our average engagement is $8–10K/month, with deals ranging from $7K to $35K/month. We are scaling and need closers who want to be part of that run.</p> <p><strong>THE ROLE</strong></p> <p>You will run 4–5 qualified sales presentations per day over Zoom with decision-makers who have already expressed interest. The sales cycle is 2 calls: Call 1 is discovery and qualification. Call 2 is a customized proposal and close. The typical cycle is 30–60 days.</p> <p>Your monthly target is 5–8 closed deals. Our team writes the proposal, and you schedule the close. You are supported by a sales coach, a proposal team, and a leadership team that has built and scaled this motion across multiple brands.</p> <p>This is an individual contributor closing role. You are not managing a team. You are not building a pipeline. You are not writing decks or attending conferences. You are closing. Every day, all day. If that sounds like the best job in the world to you, keep reading.</p> <p><strong>WHAT YOU’LL SELL</strong></p> <p>Interdependence’s core offering is AI-powered PR and earned media placement at $6K–$25K/month. But you won’t be limited to one product line. We operate multiple brands, and top performers sell across the portfolio:</p> <p><strong>Search Engine Optimization (SEO) —</strong> advanced search visibility strategy focused on ranking, authority, and sustained organic traffic growth.</p> <p><strong>Generative Engine Optimization —</strong> next-generation search visibility for the AI era. This is where sophisticated deals live.</p> <p><strong>WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR</strong></p> <p><strong>You’ve closed deals at our price point.</strong> Previous average deal of $5K–$20K/month ($60K–$180K ACV). You know what it takes to get a CEO to commit $8-10K/month because you’ve done it.</p> <p><strong>You close 5–8 deals per month, personally. </strong>Your deals, your name on the board. You know your close rate, deal size, and monthly count without looking it up.</p> <p><strong>You sell to marketing decision-makers. </strong>VPs of Marketing, CMOs, or CEOs at 50–200+ person companies. You speak their language.</p> <p><strong>You’ve sold services, not just software.</strong> Agency retainers, consulting, managed services and you understand the consultative motion that comes with recurring spend.</p> <p><strong>You thrive on volume.</strong> 5 deals at $8-10K beats one whale at $40-50K. A packed Zoom calendar excites you.</p> <p>You qualify hard. You’ve walked away from closeable deals because the client was a bad fit. We pay retention bonuses because we want closers who care about what happens after the signature.</p> <p><strong>PR knowledge is not required. </strong>We teach the domain in 30 days. What we can’t teach is how to close at $8K/month. Bring the skill. We handle the rest.</p> <p><strong>THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR YOU IF</strong></p> <p><strong>Enterprise seller stepping down —</strong> if your average deal was $500K+ with 6–12 month cycles, this is a different motion.</p> <p><strong>You want to manage a team —</strong> this is IC. If you’re here as a stepping stone to VP, we’re not the right fit.</p> <p><strong>Relationship-first seller —</strong> if you need 6–9 months before asking for the business, our 2-call close will feel uncomfortable.</p> <p><strong>Previous deals under $3K/month —</strong> the $8K conversation requires executive presence that smaller deals don’t demand.</p> <p><strong>HOW TO APPLY</strong></p> <p>Send your resume and a short note with three things:</p> <ol> <li>Your average deal size (MRR or ACV) and how many you closed per month at your most recent role.</li> <li>Your target total compensation and how you’d expect base vs. variable to split.</li> <li>One sentence on why you want to close instead of manage.</li> </ol> <p>No cover letter essays. Just the numbers and the reason. If the numbers are right, we’ll be on a Zoom within 48 hours. We move fast, we don’t ghost, and we’ll tell you directly whether it’s a fit.</p>
