Meet the company behind a national hyperlocal magazine network.
Strong communities start with giving people a voice.
Since 2004, we’ve operated with a clear and ambitious mission: to honor God, strengthen the family, and create financial wealth for everyone involved.
What began as a single neighborhood newsletter has grown into a national media network with 850+ magazines, 500+ owner-operators, and 30,000+ advertising partners across all 50 states.
Yet our focus remains the same. We build meaningful connections at the local level and create stronger, more connected communities.

A message from the N2 Founders.
The N2 Company was founded in 2004 by two best friends, Duane Hixon and Earl Seals, who knew they wanted more out of their own professional lives: More time with their young and growing families, more of their values reflected in a company, and more earning potential for everyone involved.
They started with a simple mission, and it’s still the reason N2 exists today:
To build a nationwide company that honors God, strengthens the family, and creates financial wealth for everyone involved.
In this video, learn about our co-founders’ shared values and how they effectively lead a company that isn’t faith-based, but is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves respect.
