Business Development Associate

Who We Are

Beyond Marketing (BMK) is a full-service marketing agency with 35 years of history right here in the greater Wheeling area. We work with clients across a wide range of industries including banking, healthcare, hospitality, tourism, entertainment, and more, delivering everything from brand strategy and advertising to digital marketing, media, and public relations.

We’re one of only a few agencies of our kind in this region, and we’re proud of the community we’ve grown up in. If you’re a local talent looking to launch your career in a creative, fast-moving environment without having to leave the area to do it, keep reading.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Business Development Associate to join our team. This is an entry-level role built for someone who is driven, people-oriented, and ready to learn. You don’t need a sales background to apply – you need energy, curiosity, and the kind of personality that makes people want to do business with you.

You’ll work closely with our Business Development Manager, who will not only train you, but remain a hands-on partner. Over time, you’ll take on increasing ownership of BMK’s business development efforts including building a sales pipeline, engaging prospects, supporting proposals, and helping grow the agency.

What You’ll Do

Once you’ve completed training and onboarding, your day-to-day will look something like this:

• Identify, research, and engage leads, prospects, and referral sources in our target markets
• Promote the BMK brand through networking events, community outreach, and public relations initiatives
• Use our CRM and sales tools to build, track, and manage a growing pipeline of opportunities
• Nurture relationships with existing clients to generate repeat business and referrals
• Contribute to the development and delivery of proposals
• Support the agency’s own marketing efforts
• Work toward established sales goals, with a focus on consistent progress and growth
• Follow best practices and bring fresh ideas to how we develop and refine our processes
