Join the Future of Media Sales: SDR Program @ TEGNA (Dallas) At TEGNA, we don't just sell advertising; we empower local businesses and support the vital local journalism that keeps our communities informed. Our Sales Development Representative (SDR) Program in Dallas is an elite, 24-month "masterclass" designed to build the next generation of world-class Media Account Executives. In one of the most competitive media markets in the country, we provide the roadmap, the mentorship, and the technology. You provide the grit and the voice. Our DNA: The TEGNA Values in Action We don't just put these on the wall; we live them on the sales floor every day. We Demand the Truth: We lead with facts and data-backed insights. You will learn to consult with business owners by providing honest, transparent marketing solutionsnot just a sales pitch. We Work Smarter: We believe in high-velocity outreach powered by intelligence. You'll be equipped with Salesforce, ZoomInfo, and our proprietary suite of custom AI tools to identify high-intent leads and out-prospect the competition. We Do the Right Thing: Integrity is our foundation. We prioritize the client's success over a quick win and support our teammates to ensure we all rise together. We Win: We play for the top of the leaderboard. This is a high-energy, high-activity environment for people who love to compete, hit milestones, and see their efforts reflected in their commission checks. The 24-Month Mastery Path This program is structured to ensure that when you transition to your own book of business, you are the most prepared pro in the room. We begin with the SDR Academy, an immersive 4-week training on the media landscape, salesmanship, digital / linear products and our AI-powered tech stack. You'll master the art of the "cold open" and learn to leverage data to work smarter. After a 3-month traineeship, you will be a full-fledged Sales Development Representative on the phone, moving fast, and filling the pipeline for our company's sales leaders. You'll partner with Account Executives in stations and with our Inside Salesforce to see how multi-platform deals (TV, Streaming, and Digital) are structured. In your second year you will have the opportunity to take more ownership. You'll lead complex prospecting strategies, begin closing your own SDR-sourced opportunities, and mentor the incoming class of trainees. Upon successful completion of the ~24-month program, you transition into a full Junior Account Executive role, either in our stations or in our Inside Salesforce managing your own client relationships and closing high-value advertising solutions.
