Decent hours, poor pay, holidays off
With the exception of gas money and a small sum spent paying for our web space, the $380 per issue cost to print 2400 copies of North of Center every two weeks at the Danville Advocate Messenger represents the entirety of our operation costs. We are looking for someone to help offset these costs by selling ad space for the paper. The position will operate on a 10% commission basis—our fist paid position!
North of Center aims to keep ad rates low in order to encourage advertisement from small-scale local businesses. The paper writes to a demographic of people who are vested in drinking, frolicking, music-making, politic-ing, paddling, hiking, biking, eating, reading, filming, vagranting, fornicating, ROCK-ing, polo-ing and/or disc-golfing. We are banking that some local businesses want to reach that demographic. Our distribution is centered around the UK campus and along the heavily trafficked downtown and North Limestone corridors.

Are you a business student wanting to bring in a little extra cash and burnish your skills in sales? Come on over and let us corrupt you.
Are you a graphic designer who likes to dabble in print layout but still wants to expand into online advertising? We’re the paper for you.
Come one, come all. Come somebody.
