Area Sales Director

About the Opportunity

This isn’t a traditional sales role; it’s a chance to build and operate a hyperlocal magazine in your community, backed by the support of an established national company. You’ll build something of your own: developing your market, your client relationships, and working to grow a recurring revenue stream.

If you’re a relationship-driven seller ready to invest in building a business, this role blends sales, ownership, and community leadership into one unique opportunity.

Your first months will focus on establishing your territory and building your client base. From there, you grow an asset you own.

This hybrid position involves a blend of in-person community engagement and work performed from your home office.
