An advertising representative sells space in print publications, on websites, and on outdoor media to companies that want to advertise their products. He or she may also sell airtime during radio or television broadcasts. The advertising sales representative must convince advertisers that this is the best way to reach consumers. Also known as an advertising sales agent or ad sales rep, he or she builds a customer base by setting up meetings with potential clients, assessing their needs and presenting proposals to them.
