Senior Account Executive

About the Opportunity

What would you build if you had the freedom to set your own schedule, choose who you work with, and grow your income without a ceiling?

As a Senior Account Executive (known to N2 as Area Directors), you'd launch and lead a Stroll publication in your market, using a proven business model with the training, tools, and national support to help you succeed. It's freedom, built on a plan.

Stroll is the magazine neighbors look forward to, celebrating the people, stories, and businesses that make a community feel like home. Imagine being the person who brings it to life in your area.

Position Summary

We're seeking an Area Director to launch, grow, and lead a Stroll publication in your local market. Area Directors operate as a local publisher: building partnerships with local business owners, featuring residents and their stories, and growing a recurring revenue stream.

If accepted, you'd follow a clear, step-by-step launch plan. Your first months focus on establishing your territory and building your client base. From there, you'd grow a business with your name on it.

This hybrid opportunity combines in-person relationship building with work from your home office.

Who You Are

• You value a proven plan and will follow a system that works while making it your own.
• You're a natural relationship-builder with consultative sales instincts.
• You're curious and coachable, always looking to sharpen your skills and learn from people who've done it before.
• You don't need to check every box. If this sounds like the life you want to build, we want to hear from you.

What Area Directors Do

• Meet with local business owners to build long-term advertising partnerships.
• Help local businesses reach the homeowners in the neighborhoods you serve.
• Connect with residents to capture authentic stories that reflect the heart of each community.

What Area Directors Love
