Hello! I had applied for a radio sales job. I was called for an interview, and it didn't go as well as I thought. The job was posted again and so I re-applied I am planning on meeting with the station and presenting a "sales plan" example to show my skills, any advice? should I do it? or not?
Hello Patricia,
We'll be including this in this week's newsletter, but in the meantime, here are some posts you might like to take a look at:

Just what I needed. Thank you Rebecca!
Glad to hear - my pleasure! Please keep us posted!
First thing kudos, you kept calling, contacting the station and have a second meeting. I look at applying for employment the same as a sales call, don't give up.
Management, personnel changes. I just signed a car dealer with a former manager who said he would not do business with me (he didn't like radio). I did my 90 day courtesy call. Guess what? He's gone, new manager. He asked why they didn't advertise? I said the other guy didn't want to. He said really (I know many that listen to your station) let's get on the air now.
Persistence is the key. The might not hire today, but they will tomorrow.
Best wishes.
Thank you Damon. I think as well as you do, persistence and patience will lead my way
