Are you an experienced online sales manager and entrepreneur at heart? Do you love the idea of building a new online business from the ground up? Are you equally comfortable with client visits and web analytics? If so, keep reading….
We're an internet startup looking to re-invent local online advertising, and we're seeking a web- savvy sales manager to be the Regional Publisher of a dynamic new site devoted to news and information about suburban Essex County.
In this job, you and your team will be working closely with local advertisers -- from mom and pops to large regional clients — as their local online advertising expert. You'll know your own platform (and others) backwards and forwards so you can present complete advertising solutions. You may even decide to host a local seminar on how to achieve the best results by advertising on the web. As the top regional business executive you will attend chamber and trade functions, get involved in community groups, head up charitable efforts, and maintain a highly visible presence in several business communities.
It's the right job for an utterly self-motivated individual who gets an adrenaline rush from starting up a business, closing deals, obsessing over numbers and analytics, and can work flexible hours. Ideal candidates will have worked in online advertising for 3-5 years, have built and managed a sales team and have in-depth understanding of current and emerging media. Preferably, you're an Essex County local yourself, you have a car, and you're plugged into the local business communities.
It will be a huge, live-and-breathe-it endeavor, which is why we're offering competitive compensation, benefits, performance-based bonuses, and an equity stake.

28th Annual Global Growth Conference, InterContinental Boston, Boston
August 12-14, 2008
Nothing says "super fun!" like a full day of nothing but investment bankers, Internet researchers, and private companies pitching their wares in a stuffy Boston hotel. It's not bad if you like to learn about private companies' missions and needs, and enjoy tented parties along the Boston Harbor plating food from some of the best restaurants Boston has to offer. The only mood cramper would be, oh I don't know, something like anti-photo sentiments leveled at the person invited to photo-document the day. That's me.
It was drizzling and blue-grey when I arrived, which made the sea-blue windows of the hotel gleam with investment banking decadence. I was running a little late for the first lunch "Roundtable Discussion" with Colin Gillis, Internet Analyst, Canaccord Adams, Eric Alterman, founder of Kickapps, and special guests. I was handed an agenda devoid of speaker names so I had to keep popping back and forth into the rooms to confirm the speakers.
The discussion was "Rise and Fall: The Pending Fragmentation of Social Networks - Moving Past Web 2.0." Colin presented the Canaccord research, then introduced Alterman, who was barely visible, seated at the front of the room. He spoke, pitched, and pontificated from his seat. Odd, but not as odd as his view of Web 3.0. He must have missed the memo with the subject "Web 3.0 is virtual worlds" a couple years ago. Not once did he mention virtual worlds/gaming, but why would he? His view has to include his product/service. "For me, Web 3.0 is partly what Colin described… all those Web 2.0 things… within the context of brands and every other site on the Internet," he offered. He also opined the #1 place where he sees video growing is in live video. So develop those high quality, easy to mess with webcam applications, kids!
If I had large amount of money, I would partner up with Heath Clarke, the big cheese at Local.com. He gave me a good "well, duh" moment. When searching for parties to cover in the NYC media scene, I always include "nyc". Why would I want my search results to display parties in Beijing? Heath's presentation was simple, clear, and matter-of-fact - there was no condescension and he was very honest about what he was willing and not willing to reveal.
Clarke was a refreshing contrast to the Mzinga room, which began with a huffed outburst of "It's just that I've done so many of these …" from Barry Libert, Chairman of the Board at Mzinga. He secured his ShamWow! style mic and launched into a video: "Chevy Tahoe is your bitch." He smiled confidently, expecting the attendees to laugh along. And here's the bummer - he had valid ideas and assertions, but they were so greased up with aggression and "What will it take to get you in this car" slime, it was hard to absorb. The video emphasized how UGC can potentially ruin your brand, but it wasn't obvious to me how Mzinga could help. I tried to black out when he needled Eric Alterman with "when did you start your business?" to which Eric answered, "As a small child," derailing Barry's attempt to show that he's been around longer. "So, you've been around as long as me then," Barry continued.
I hit the party full of apprehension, a bit raw from the nameless woman scolding me, as if I were a five-year-old, about taking photos of the registration signage (seriously?) I only got a few "we can't be seen together"s. How do you leave the house? What if you're in line at the Halal stand and someone gets a picture of you by Chauncey!? While wandering around the grass I chewed on Kobe beef with heirloom tomatoes, some sort of creamy fresh crab or lobster sandwich, tuna tartare, and a lamb lollipop (sounds gross, but it's delightful) dipped in a crème fraiche.
I ran into Wayne Chang, a friendly face and also the only person willing to lower himself to chat with me. I only stuck around for a couple rounds of pictures and headed out. No one needed anything from me and many preferred to avoid the camera, so it was next to impossible to be part of the party. Maybe if I remained for the tequila shots things would have turned around and I'd be reporting from the bottom of the Boston Harbor!
Send invitations to kelly@mediapost.com for your wild and wooly camera friendly shindig!
There is more food for you to drool over in the online photo set !
You can follow me on Twitter if you just can't get enough.

We are seeking a CTO/Senior Technical Advisor to architect and guide the execution of a consumer-facing web-based application. The project has the potential to transform the way people interact with content on the web. We believe that simple ideas and elegant, empathetic design can empower and delight people. Success for us is not just a highly useful and emotionally compelling application—it is a sustainable and lucrative business. No Web 2.0 fantasies here.
The current team consists of a non-technical founder and lead designer. Both have substantial product development experience across a range of categories and businesses. We have funding.
What we're looking for is someone with considerable technical expertise who can make high-level strategic decisions about use of platforms, languages, technologies, and ultimately help to hire and oversee the developer who executes on the development plan. Someone who has 5-10 years broad-based product development experience and has the judgment to make thoughtful decisions that balance user experience, cost, and implementation challenges. An interest or knowledge of semantic web and interpretative databases will be especially helpful. In terms of specific technical skills, knowledge of Java, MySQL, AJAX, Rails, Python, PHP, and DHTML are crucial. As are a superb understanding of current and forthcoming technologies (popular APIs, widget creation, etc). Prior experience in startups is extremely desirable. We believe that this role may be undertaken, at least in the beginning, on a part-time basis. We are located in New York City.
If this describes you, we'd love to hear from you. Please send a CV, cover letter telling us a little bit about yourself, and if possible, some links to your work.

Wanted: Braveheart, unafraid of a challenge and ready to take a heroic stand to lead Neighborhood America into our next evolution.
Call it whatever you'd like – Community Evangelist, Social Media Strategist, even Chief if it suits you. We prefer to focus on YOU rather than what your business card might say.
So, who might you be?
You've achieved much success throughout your career and have gained a reputation that lies somewhere between King Midas and Joan of Arc. Fully clothed, of course, but fearless in leading new charges in the pursuit of revolution. Most of which you've touched has turned to gold, and those things that didn't are seen as valuable learning experiences.
You've long moved away from ‘the world according to me' way of thinking, as you've learned that success can never be achieved by the power of one. You have the unique ability to lead, teach, inspire and share, and people flock to you because…well, they like you.
The games have been played, and you've probably won most of them along the way. Today, though, you realize that the only game that really matters is the game of life – and the gratification that comes from knowing you are achieving your very best. But make no mistake about it – you haven't lost that competitive spirit that makes you want to win. It just feels good.
You've climbed the ladder of success only to realize that the top rung wasn't really what you were after. With that wisdom, you're ready for your next career move, quietly but powerfully leading a company – if not the world - into a new era. You take gratification in knowing your crucial role without the need to stand atop a building and tell the world. Because you know that the ones who really matter will notice when your work speaks volumes. Sure, a little stroke to the ego can't hurt any – but you don't depend on it for your livelihood. After all, you are successful. You've proven it for many years. And when you talk, people listen.
