Company Description

We Are Purple Cow is an independent creative agency that believes in innovation, strategic thinking, and original ideas. We work across branding, advertising, marketing, digital, and content to create work that makes a meaningful impact.

We are looking for someone who understands not just how to sell agency services, but how creative businesses actually work.

Position: Business Development Manager

We are seeking an experienced Business Development professional with strong advertising/creative agency experience who knows how to identify opportunities, pitch the right solutions, negotiate with decision-makers, and close business quickly.

This role is for someone commercially sharp, highly networked, and confident enough to take a lead from the first conversation to a signed deal.

Prior experience in an Advertising, Creative, Branding, Marketing, Digital, or Design Agency is mandatory.

Key Responsibilities

Generate new business through networking, cold outreach, references, partnerships, and existing industry relationships.

Identify and approach potential clients across branding, advertising, marketing, hospitality, healthcare, retail, corporate, and lifestyle sectors.

Own the complete sales cycle — from lead generation and first meeting to pitch, negotiation, closure, and onboarding.

Convert qualified leads into paying clients quickly and efficiently.

Lead business pitches, presentations, meetings, negotiations, and commercial discussions.

Understand client requirements and translate them into relevant creative and marketing solutions.





Work closely with the creative team to develop proposals and pitches that have a strong commercial and strategic proposition.

Build and maintain long-term relationships with founders, CMOs, marketing heads, brand managers, and key decision-makers.

Prepare proposals, quotations, scopes of work, and strategic business presentations.

Achieve monthly and quarterly revenue targets.

Develop strategic partnerships and new revenue opportunities for the agency.

Represent the agency at exhibitions, networking events, industry meets, and business meetings.

Maintain a strong sales pipeline, regular follow-ups, reporting, and CRM records.

Candidate Requirements

4–8 years of proven experience in Business Development, preferably within an Advertising, Creative, Branding, Digital, Marketing, or Media Agency.

Advertising/creative agency experience is mandatory.

Robust understanding of how agencies sell creative, branding, advertising, digital, content, and marketing services.

Demonstrated ability to independently acquire, pitch, negotiate, and close clients.

Must be comfortable with short sales cycles and capable of converting opportunities into business quickly.

Strong existing network among founders, CMOs, marketing heads, brand managers, and corporate decision-makers is a major advantage.

Excellent communication, negotiation, presentation,



and relationship-management skills.

Commercially smart with a strong understanding of pricing, margins, proposals, and negotiations.

Ability to understand a client's business problem and sell a solution, rather than simply selling agency services.

Highly proactive, target-driven, and comfortable working independently.

Comfortable working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven creative environment.

What We’re Looking For

We are specifically looking for someone who can:

Bring business, not just leads.

Close clients, not just arrange meetings.

Take ownership of revenue and business growth.

Understand the advertising and creative ecosystem.

Build relationships with senior decision-makers.

Identify opportunities before competitors do.

Move quickly from conversation → pitch → negotiation → closure.

Work closely with creative teams to create commercially strong pitches.

Contribute to the overall growth and positioning of the agency.

Think beyond monthly targets and build long-term business opportunities.

This is NOT a beginner-level sales role.

We need someone who has already worked inside an advertising/creative agency, understands the business, knows how clients think, and can walk into a conversation, identify an opportunity, pitch the right solution, negotiate confidently, and close the deal.

If you are someone who needs multiple months to convert a lead, this role may not be for you. We are looking for a fast-moving business developer who knows how to get deals across the line.
