Macaroni Kid South Birmingham Hiring Marketing/Ad Sales Assistant

By Jess Searcy January 26, 2019

Publishing Macaroni Kid South Birmingham has been an amazing experience for my family and I, these past (almost) two years. But, now that I am homeschooling our kids, I'm struggling to keep up with it all! I'm looking for someone who can help grow MK South Birmingham to its fullest potential, starting as an assistant and possibly growing into a full partner. The most successful Macaroni Kid sites seem to be two-person 50/50 partnership ventures, with one person doing most of the publishing side of things (that would be me) and the other person doing the marketing, ad sales and networking side of things (that would be you). If you aren't interested, do you know someone who might be? Maybe a mom whose kids have recently started school? A young professional looking for experience? A retired empty nester who needs a new purpose? PLEASE SHARE!

Do you have 5-10 or more hours a week during the day to make phone calls, meet with potential and existing clients, attend networking events? You don't need ad sales or marketing experience (though that would certainly be a bonus), just a bit of enthusiasm and a love of Macaroni Kid.

Do you live locally? Within 20 minutes of the South Birmingham (anywhere from downtown B'ham, Mountain Brook areas to Hoover to Alabaster) area would be ideal.

Are you looking for a job that is super flexible and mostly work from home? Much of this job can be done from home and meetings can be arranged to suit your schedule.

Do you have a family that would benefit from Macaroni Kid perks? We barter with local businesses and events for kids classes, tickets to shows, etc. But having kids is not required!

Are you looking for a job that serves your community? Thousands of families depend on Macaroni Kid South Birmingham to find free and low cost things to do with kids! Plus, through partnerships with local organizations, we help spread the word about disaster relief, special needs kids events, domestic abuse prevention and so many other local resources that help our community! The local businesses that support Macaroni Kid allow us to pay it forward to organizations that have no advertising budget.

Would you love to join an amazing sisterhood? Assistant publishers get to participate in Macaroni Kid's annual meet up and join our online Facebook groups. I have made some amazing new friends over the past two years that I definitely consider sisters! Plus, locally, there's me! :)
