>> Katie DeMaio.

00:00:00.900 --> 00:00:02.660
I work at Outdoor Channel.

00:00:02.660 --> 00:00:07.490
I am a sales account executive,
and I graduated in December 2007.

00:00:07.490 --> 00:00:12.310
So advertising sales is basically -- so
my network, we have commercial spaces,

00:00:12.310 --> 00:00:16.590
and I sell the commercial
spaces to different advertisers.

00:00:16.590 --> 00:00:19.540
I also come up with different
marketing elements,

00:00:19.540 --> 00:00:21.910
creative ideas for them to get on the network.

00:00:21.910 --> 00:00:24.850
And I take their products, and I
can integrate them into our shows.

00:00:24.850 --> 00:00:26.910
You'll see that more and more happening.

00:00:26.910 --> 00:00:28.900
There's a lot that goes into it on the back end.

00:00:28.900 --> 00:00:33.310
And it's fun and it's creative and it's
a lot of hard work but it's worth it.

00:00:33.310 --> 00:00:35.440
A typical day, it completely ranges.

00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:37.880
You know, I could have a fire
drill and I could just be working

00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:40.070
on one account all day long
making sure everything

00:00:40.070 --> 00:00:42.160
in tip-top shape and running smoothly.

00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:46.640
Or I can be working with my marketing
team and coming up with new ideas to try

00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:49.870
to pitch new advertisers and go
after business we don't have.

00:00:49.870 --> 00:00:53.370
I like to do that a lot, actually,
because I like a challenge.

00:00:53.370 --> 00:00:59.230
And definitely keeping my clients happy but also
trying to grow my list all the time and think

00:00:59.230 --> 00:01:01.770
of creative ideas for them
to do on the Outdoor Channel.
