Pros

Incredible Company and great teams to work with, love being part of my local community and it is wonderful helping businesses with their marketing. Flexible working hours and a wonderful company to work for.

Cons

I dont have any complaints. I takes a while to get started and gaining an income as it is purely commission based, but if you work hard and you have quality clients, it is great.

Content coordinator

Pros

Everyone - from publishers to designers and corporate office staff - is helpful and eager to see the whole team succeed. Other content coordinators are wonderful about sharing information that would be relevant to magazines outside of their area. Quarterly webinars also keep us abreast of what's new.

Cons

Some things within the software can occasionally be clunky; but IT listens to suggestions and always works to make improvements.
