Business Develpment Connector

Hybrid / Remote - must reside within 75 miles of Colorado Springs, CO

FOX21 News & SOCO CW are looking for a Business Development Connector who isn’t afraid to make the call. Literally.

We’re growing and need someone who thrives on cold calls, books high-quality appointments for our Account Executives, and knows how to blend business with banter. You’ll be the first point of contact with future advertisers — and your mission is to open the door with confidence, clarity, and a killer value pitch.

What You’ll Do:

  • Cold call prospective businesses and book appointments for our Account Executives
  • Use Valid Business Reasons to start conversations that matter
  • Build quick rapport — no scripts, just real talk
  • Track outreach and follow-ups in our CRM system
  • Manage our CRM system for AE Activities
  • Work closely with the sales team to align strategies and refine messaging

What You Bring:

  • Zero fear of rejection — actually, you kind of like the challenge
  • A conversational, confident phone presence — you keep it light, fun, and engaging
  • Excellent communication skills and a sharp ear for opportunity
  • Proven ability to hit performance goals
  • Sales, appointment setting, or call center experience is a big plus, but not required if you’ve got the grit and grind

What We Offer:

  • Remote flexibility — as long as you’re within 75 miles of Colorado Springs
  • $50,000 on target earnings
  • Performance incentives that reward hustle and consistency
  • A solid support system — our team’s got your back
  • A casual, driven, no-fluff team culture that celebrates wins and works hard
  • Health, dental, vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Access to Nexstar’s full training resources and best-in-class tools

Interested?
Send your resume and a short note on why you’re the perfect fit. Bonus if you include a sample cold call or a short video intro — show us what you’ve got.
