Area Sales Director

The N2 Company is a dynamic media organization dedicated to helping small- to mid-sized businesses connect with affluent homeowners through high-quality monthly publications, targeted digital advertising, and engaging community events. With a portfolio of over 800 custom publications across various brands such as Stroll, BeLocal, Greet, Real Producers, and more, N2 has positioned itself as a leader in the community-focused publishing space. The company prides itself on fostering local connections and empowering entrepreneurs to lead community-driven initiatives that promote business growth and recognition.

One of the prominent brands under The N2 Company is Real Producers, a distinguished magazine celebrating top real estate agents in local markets. Real Producers serves as a platform where the real estate community is both acknowledged and connected, offering agents valuable recognition and opportunities to build meaningful relationships with local businesses. This symbiotic relationship helps strengthen the local economy by linking businesses and professionals to their ideal audiences.

The role of Area Sales Director at The N2 Company presents a unique opportunity for entrepreneurial-minded individuals to launch, grow, and lead a Real Producers publication within their community. Unlike traditional sales positions, this role provides the chance to build and operate a hyperlocal magazine business as a local publisher. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing their market, fostering client relationships, and growing a recurring revenue stream. It blends core elements of sales, business ownership, and community leadership into one hybrid position that combines in-person community engagement with work from a home office.

This role is perfectly suited for relationship-driven sellers who are motivated by helping local businesses flourish and who take pride in building something of their own. The Area Sales Director will invest in establishing a local market presence and gaining the trust of business owners by conducting consultative meetings aimed at building long-term advertising partnerships. The role requires a natural relationship-builder with consultative sales instincts, someone entrepreneurial and self-directed, energized by the prospect of creating and growing a publication rather than simply maintaining it.

During the initial months, the focus will be on territory establishment and client base development. As the Area Sales Director grows their local publication business, they will act as the face of Stroll in their market, leading its growth, shaping the magazine content to reflect authentic community interests, and leveraging N2’s proven systems and national support. The position offers a flexible schedule, allowing the individual to design their workday around their lifestyle, supported by comprehensive training and an award-winning company culture.

Financially, the role offers significant income potential through commission structures. Top-performing Area Directors have earned average commissions exceeding $240,000 annually, with the highest earners realizing commissions above $680,000 in the 2024-2025 fiscal year. These figures indicate strong earning possibilities for those who are driven and successful at building their local publication business under the N2 banner.
