About Stacker

Stacker is revolutionizing how brands connect with audiences through earned media. Our platform helps marketers extend the reach of their content by seamlessly integrating with a network of thousands of trusted news publishers. By combining data-driven storytelling with a newsroom of expert journalists, we ensure that brand stories aren’t just seen—they make an impact.

At our core, Stacker solves one of content marketing’s biggest challenges: distribution. Unlike traditional PR and paid syndication, we offer a scalable way for brands to earn media placements by creating newsroom-ready content that publishers want to run. This model empowers brands to engage audiences organically while giving publishers access to quality stories that drive engagement.

As a bootstrapped, fast-growing company, we’re resourceful, innovative, and committed to building an inclusive, equitable culture. We are a remote-first team that values ownership, integrity, and collaboration—offering flexible schedules, unlimited vacation, an employee equity program, and full health & dental coverage. We champion long-term impact over short-term gains and believe in empowering our team with autonomy and opportunities for career growth.

What You’ll Do
  • Lead the entire sales cycle, from initial outreach and pitching to negotiation, closing, and renewal.

  • Identify high-value prospects and build relationships with key decision-makers across mid-market and enterprise organizations.

  • Develop and implement a strategic sales plan, identifying key enterprise prospects and executing outbound and inbound engagement strategies.

  • Lead consultative sales conversations with senior marketing executives, demonstrating Stacker’s ability to solve content distribution and audience engagement challenges.

  • Communicate Stacker’s value proposition effectively, showcasing our unique offerings to potential clients.

  • Collaborate closely with Account Management and Newsroom teams to ensure seamless onboarding and client success.

  • Proactively contribute to the development of scalable sales strategies and improve operational efficiencies.

  • Utilize tools like HubSpot, Apollo and SalesNav to manage a healthy and active sales pipeline.

  • Analyze sales data to refine strategies, forecast growth, and exceed revenue targets.

What We’re Looking For
  • 5-7 years of experience in a closing sales role - preferably in martech, adtech, B2B SaaS, or media.

  • Proven track record of meeting and exceeding sales quotas, with demonstrated success in a full-cycle sales role.

  • Solid understanding of digital marketing, PR, content, SEO, and earned media.

  • Ability to engage with senior executives, confidently leading sales conversations with CMOs, VPs of Marketing, and PR leaders.

  • Consultative sales approach, with the ability to deeply understand client needs and propose tailored solutions.

  • Strong business acumen, with the ability to navigate complex buyer journeys and procurement processes.

  • Data-driven mindset, leveraging insights to create compelling sales narratives and business cases.

  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence senior stakeholders.

  • Highly organized, with a meticulous attention to detail and a proactive, self-starting approach.

  • Passionate about digital media/marketing or journalism.

Why Join Us?

Stacker is a diverse, distributed team building a more trusted future for media. As a bootstrapped company, we are resourceful, fast-moving, and focused on measurable, sustainable growth. Our culture is rooted in trust, ownership, and collaboration, with a strong publisher-first mindset.

You will join a team that values clarity over noise, quality over shortcuts, and impact over vanity metrics. This is a place where your work will shape how an industry evolves — and where you’ll grow from running campaigns today into owning the systems behind them tomorrow.
