Pros

The positivity radiates fullthroughout the organization within every level. From our fantastic tri-fecta in leadership,to handling the small details, BVM has it together to help the passionate succeed!

Cons

A personal challenge exists as every Publisher craves out their own business. If you build it...it will grow.

Pros

Management is very supportive in helping each publisher to build and grow their publications with daily conference calls with peers and managers giving advice and sharing experience - no negative enforcement. So far, very honest about what to expect - no income for the few months before you go to print but the potential for a lucrative income is there without the threat of corporate downsizing. Great opportunity to get to know more about your community and the businesses that serve the community. BVM staff is very responsive to all inquiries and requests and has a well run organization. Promotes good work ethic and creates good quality magazines on a local level. High level of satisfaction and accomplishment when a magazine goes to print.

Cons

This is for people that are self disciplined to do the hard work to build a business without income for several months and the determination to make it happen- not for everybody - and you have to be willing to make cold calls for a living. You will have to pay your own way to company conferences including hotel and meals as needed.

Pros

You work for yourself and build a great business. When you follow the metrics given to you by Best Version Media (BVM), you cannot help but become successful. BVM has come as close as they can to creating a stressful environment. I have worked as a publisher at BVM for over a year and I've never heard one person yell, belittle, or speak behind anyone's back.This company gives off the most positive energy I have ever experienced in my work career.

Cons

When you work for yourself, you need to make every hour of every day count, especially until your magazine has been launched. In order to get advertisers you need to make a lot of calls every day. You do not need sales experience to make calls, but you need the type of personality where you only look at your successes and not the rejections that are part of all sales jobs. BVM is there to pick you during your low times
