About the Opportunity
This role transcends traditional sales; it presents a unique opportunity to create and manage a hyperlocal magazine that resonates with your community, supported by a reputable national organization. You will cultivate your own market, nurture client relationships, and develop a sustainable revenue stream.
If you are a seller who thrives on relationship-building and is eager to invest in your own business, this position combines sales, ownership, and community leadership in a distinctive way.
Position Summary
We are on the lookout for a Senior Account Executive, or Area Director as referred to at N2, to establish, grow, and oversee a Stroll publication within your local market. If selected, you will operate as a local publisher: generating revenue, forging partnerships with local business owners, and curating a magazine that reflects the essence of your community.
Your initial months will focus on defining your territory and expanding your client base, ultimately allowing you to develop a valuable asset that you own.
This hybrid role involves a combination of in-person community involvement and remote work from your home office.
Who You Are
- Entrepreneurial and self-motivated: you thrive on building and creating rather than just maintaining.
- A natural relationship-builder with strong consultative sales skills.
- Driven by a desire to help local businesses flourish.
- Confident in leveraging N2's established systems to make them your own.
What You'll Do
- Conduct consultative meetings with local business owners to forge long-term advertising partnerships.
- Develop meaningful relationships within the community through a proven engagement model.
- Connect local businesses with their target customers via your publication.
- Engage with homeowners to gather authentic, community-driven content.
- Manage your territory, sales pipeline, and publication operations effectively.
- Collaborate with N2's national team for design, production, training, and ongoing support.
- Champion the growth of your publication as the face of Stroll in your market.
What You’ll Love
- Ownership, Not Just Employment: Build and run a local publication business in your market.
- Flexible Schedule: Structure your workday around your personal life.
- Comprehensive Training: Benefit from proven, repeatable systems that enhance your success.
