Want a job at Amp Idea? Reading this post is a good start, but then what? Get a job faster with Found Your Career, our 21-day entry level job search prep course.
I know just what you’re thinking right now! “I don’t get advertised to enough.” (If you’re really thinking that, why don’t you check out our job search prep course that will teach you how to get a job faster?) Ok, so that’s not really what you’re thinking, but it’s what the guys at Boston based Amp Idea are thinking. They think that online advertising has developed some amazing ideas, while outdoor advertising (and other similar mediums) have lost their effectiveness. They want to bridge that gap through things like Taxi Interactive Screens, Hotel Tourist GPS, Tabletop Restaurants, and Limo and Bus interactive devices. Over at One Day, One Internship we checked out a company called Captivate Network that is doing this kind of thing in elevators, so it seems as though there is a lot of room for growth in “digital advertising in the out of home space for business owners.”
Get Amped About Amp Idea
Amp Idea is very early stage startup, but they’re already deploying interactive taxi screens in Boston, and they plan to expand to New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C. in the very near future. It’s a really cool idea, and if they can gain market share quickly, they’re going to have a very serious business on their hands in a couple of years. According to the company’s LinkedIn Profile the company has 5 employees, and they’re looking to add more. They have an Outside Sales Executive position posted on Startuply that looks pretty interesting. Now, they have this posted as a commission only position, so I think that they’re going to have a tough time finding the person with 2 years in the Advertising Industry that they’re looking for. That means that if you think that you have what it takes, you’ll probably have a pretty good shot at landing this job (it’s not a lot of risk to them). Now it’s up to you to decide if a job without base salary is something that you can do (and if it isn’t, you can always try negotiating).
