Job Description:
Strategic Account Manager – High School Sports Media (Wichita Area)
VYPE is a high school sports media company that tells short, human-interest stories about student-athletes and helps local businesses connect with their communities through magazines, websites, and social media.
We’re building up our Kansas market and looking for a few new team members in the Wichita area who enjoy talking sports, meeting people, and building real relationships. While this is technically a sales role, it doesn’t feel like a traditional sales job. You’re talking about high school sports and local pride — not pushing a product people don’t care about.
What you’ll do
- Share advertising opportunities across our magazines, websites, and social platforms
- Spend time out in the community meeting businesses in person
(expect roughly 30 face-to-face conversations per day) - Follow up by phone and email to stay connected and organized
- Travel across Kansas as we grow into new markets
- Keep track of conversations and follow-ups so clients feel supported
- Create simple sales materials and Proof of Performance reports
- Help answer questions and make sure clients have a great experience
Who this is a good fit for
- People who enjoy relationship-based work
- Sports fans, former athletes, coaches, or educators
- College students or recent grads looking for hands-on experience
- Self-motivated individuals who like setting and hitting goals
- Anyone who prefers being out in the community rather than sitting behind a desk
What helps
- Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport
- Basic familiarity with Google Docs, Sheets, and email
- Organization, follow-through, and reliability
- Comfort working independently and managing your schedule
Pay & bonuses
- Straight commission with performance-based bonuses
- No cap on earnings — your income grows with the relationships you build
- Bonuses tied to hitting milestones and growth goals
- Flexible schedule with clear expectations and support
Company culture
- Casual, supportive, and goal oriented
- Community-driven work with real impact
- Clear expectations without micromanagement
- Opportunity to grow as the company expands
