Are you an Independent Consultant?

Macaroni Kid Middletown is looking for Independent Consultants for our Work-at-Home Guide!  

Macaroni Kid is family friendly FREE resource in the Middletown area (as well as 500 other cities nationwide). We send out weekly e-newsletters with information on events for kids and families and often highlight local businesses in an effort to encourage families to buy local if/when they can. I am the publisher of the Middletown edition and one of my passions is encouraging moms and helping other women in business. As a small business owner, I know that advertising can be costly and my budget doesn't necessarily allow for advertising outside of self promotion ;)  

Macaroni Kid is solely supported by advertising and more often than not I have independent consultants want to advertise on our site, but don't have room in their budget for it. I have come up with something that I think will work for independent consultants and be affordable!  I know that most of you benefit from signing up new consultants under you and of the over 1,000 subscriber mom's and 7,000 views we reach each week - there are definitely some that may be interested in becoming an independent consultant. This will be your opportunity to reach those moms to potentially grow your team, gain some sales and get your business known!  

Macaroni Kid will be running an article for four weeks that will highlight local mom owned businesses. The goal? To create awareness to local moms that there ARE options out there that will allow them to work from home. Options that are not scams, and options that will be fun! And those that aren't looking for a business opportunity? They may just want to shop - and that is of course a great benefit to your business. We will only be accepting ONE consultant from each company, (Scentsy, Mary Kay, Thirty One, and so on) as to not create competition among your peers. We will include your logo, links to your website & facebook pages, a description of your business and your contact information.  Typically the cost for this type of advertisement is over $200. For this special feature, I am offering it at $25 to all independent consultants.  It will be first come, first serve, so please contact Christelh@macaronikid.com
