Reentering the workforce after becoming a mother can feel incredibly overwhelming. How on earth do you integrate your home life into a traditional 9-5 schedule?!. Thankfully, N2 provides a way to have the best of both worlds. Below, we discuss how our Area Director opportunity allows for a flexible schedule, all the training you need, and a supportive company culture.
Flexible Schedule
Every mom knows there’s a neverending list of responsibilities at all times. Everything from accomplishing the bedtime routine to planning a birthday party can feel taxing, even without adding a busy work schedule to the mix. Our Area Director opportunity breaks the conventional 9-5 schedule, providing a flexible, self-directed arrangement that accommodates the unique needs of working moms. Flexibility is not just a perk; it’s a core component of the N2 structure. This means you have the freedom to set your daytime hours, allowing you to prioritize family commitments while still excelling in your professional role.
Area Directors own and manage their publication business, giving them complete control over when and where they work. As an Area Director, you set your meetings (virtually or in person) with local business owners and magazine contributors at times that work for you and your family, Need to be “off the clock” by 3pm every day to pick the kids up from school? We get it. That’s possible when you are your own boss. No micromanagers here! Plus, our Area Directors have the freedom to work from a home office instead of renting a separate office space. Dishes, laundry, or cooking between daytime sales appointments = relaxation at night when the kids are tucked in. It doesn’t get better than that.

Comprehensive Training
Whether you were a corporate ladder-climber for years before starting your family or you are hunting for your first full-time gig, you may be concerned with how relevant or timely your experience still is today. Sadly, not every employer is open to seeing the gaps of service on a résumé. But this is never the case at N2. We seek coachable candidates who are ready to learn the tried and true N2 program – a proven playbook for success in launching and managing your own publication business. Over the 20 years we’ve been in business, we’ve witnessed people from every walk of life, background, and skill set go through our training program and succeed. Many of our top-performing Area Directors are mothers, so we know firsthand how achievable success at N2 is for working moms who are passionate about making a positive community impact and who know how to put in the work while their kids are at school. (After all, an uninterrupted mom can get more done in an hour than most of us can get done in 8!).
Supportive Company Culture
You’ll never have to worry about feeling alone in your role at N2 because a supportive company culture is what drives our success. We recognize the challenges that moms face when reentering the workforce, and we strive to create an environment that not only understands but actively supports these challenges. Our organization is made up of more than 500 local Area Directors and hundreds of dedicated team members (IT experts, graphic designers, billing specialists, and more) who support them. So while you would be your own boss and may or may not choose to bring on local support staff, you are never alone.
Though we are a sales organization, this is not one of those eat-or-be-eaten, ultra-competitive environments. Our national team supports one another. This is evident in the many awards we’ve won based on anonymous third-party-collected feedback from our actual Area Directors. One of our favorites is being named a Top Franchise for Women for four years in a row by Franchise Business Review.
There’s nothing that feels easy about searching for a new role as a mom and we recognize the stress that surrounds it. At N2, we celebrate moms and how our business ownership opportunity supports flexibility and work-life balance.
