Portsmouth Public Media (PPMtv) is currently seeking an individual experienced in the sales of underwriting support for this non-profit, 501(c)3, Public Access Television and streaming media station.

PPMtv is the only Public Access Television station in the New Hampshire seacoast and is available on Comcast Cable Channel 98 as well as streaming on the PPMtvnh.org/live website. We are a membership driven organization helping members of the seacoast community create and execute television and media programming of their own design.  We seek underwriting support for the content they produce as well as programming we acquire through third party sources.

The individual we seek will have experience in securing underwriting for non-profit media organizations and will understand the unique personal level of interaction that exists between potential funders and PPMtv.

The position will build underwriting relationships with new clients as well as revisit leads from existing funders.

Channel 98 serves the greater Portsmouth area and offers broadcast exposure to funders on an established rate card basis.  Funders outside of the immediate Portsmouth, NH area will receive exposure only through the online streaming of our daily broadcast line up and thru national exposure on specific projects headed to distribution.

Experienced prospects who find this position of interest, please submit via e-mail only a letter of introduction, resume indicating sales experience – please highlight experience with non-profit organizations if applicable, all pertinent contact information, and a short statement of your approach and philosophy in the pursuit of funding.  Please, no phone calls.
