When work started supporting life...
After years of working weekends in the wedding industry — through my dad’s illness, my daughter’s health crisis, and everything in between — this opportunity allowed me to put family first. It’s changed my life financially, spiritually, and personally.
When purpose meets ownership...
I went back and forth about whether to take a more traditional path, but my wife said, ‘Rick, this is built for you.’ And with her support, I jumped. The N2 Company has given me a platform to do work I believe in while building a business on my own terms. And the people I’ve met are some of the most generous and mission-minded I’ve ever known.
Built for people who want more from
their work.
HOME-BASED
No office required, and no ceiling either. N2 owners work from home, a local café, or wherever the week takes them. When you’re not meeting with clients, you’re running a real business on your own terms.
PURPOSE-DRIVEN
Every N2 publication is a much-loved resource cherished by our community members. Hyperlocal magazines are how we do good locally. Donating millions through N2GIVES is how we do good globally.
SELF-DIRECTED
We give you the training, the systems, and the support. You decide how to use them. Your week is yours to structure: built around your life, not someone else’s schedule.
AWARD-WINNING
Eight-time Inc. 5000 honoree. We’ve led the industry since 2004, so we’re proud to be the stable foundation hundreds of entrepreneurs trust with their next chapter.
The honest answers to the questions we hear most.
What does The N2 Company actually do?
The N2 Company publishes hyperlocal community magazines through a network of independent business owners. You can own one of those magazines, advertise your business in one of our 850+ titles, or join our Home Office team. Whichever path fits, it starts with a conversation.
How many magazines does N2 publish?
N2 publishes more than 850 hyperlocal titles across five brands: Stroll, Greet, Real Producers, BeLocal, and Uniquely You. Each magazine is locally owned and serves its own community or audience, and together they reach neighborhoods across the country.
Is N2 a magazine company or a marketing company?
Both. Our magazines put local businesses in front of the households and professionals they most want to reach, and our internal digital marketing team, N2 Digital, extends that with retargeting, social media management, email and SMS marketing, and website support. Advertisers get print and digital working together.
How is N2 different from a local newspaper or city magazine?
Local newspapers and city magazines aim at a broad, general readership. N2 magazines are built around one defined audience, such as an established neighborhood, a town, new movers, or a market’s top real estate agents, and they are mailed directly to those readers. Residents often keep issues on the coffee table, so advertisers stay in front of the same people month after month.
How do I get involved with N2?
There are three paths. To own a magazine, start on our franchise page and book a discovery call. To advertise, visit our advertising page to talk with our team about the right magazine and market. To work on N2’s internal team, see Current Openings on our Careers page.
