Community Editors Wanted For Santa Cruz County

SantaCruzParent is expanding in its goal of providing choices for families and of being the "go to" online resource for parents. We are three years old, have doubled our "reach (stats)" several times and are poised to double again this year. There are other parenting sites, but none matching our particular business model, our depth and growth potential.

We are looking for "Community Editors" to be our local ambassadors to families, schools, businesses and non-profits in local communities and to bring local information to our website. A Community Editor could also be an ambassador to a particular resource area depending on your areas of expertise and interest. This is an opportunity to design your role within our larger mission.

We are free for parents and modest cost to businesses and non-profits for an annual listing (see List your Business on website).

You are an independent contractor working out of your home and in your chosen community (although not necessarily limited to it). Remuneration is by commission on sales of listings to businesses and non-profits & newsletter ads, and also per item payment for data entry. The two go hand-in-hand in building information into the site, increasing our stats and increasing our value to potential clients. There are other opportunities to generate income as we grow.

We give support with materials, training in sales, learning the back end of our website and our monthly business newsletters that go to all our listed businesses and non-profits. Because we put a lot of energy into getting you started, we hope you can commit to a year. We also seek an ability to be consistent on a weekly basis in what you commit to. Over a year's time you can build a nice income. We recognize that family matters come up and come first and that occasionally you will need to shift things around. Think about the amount of hours per week you would like to commit to, with 10 hours per week being a minimum. We will help you set goals and priorities for an enjoyable and successful venture.

If you would like to explore this further, please tour around our site using the Easy Search drop down menu, see where we have filled in information and where we have yet to list information. You might also visit two of our sister sites, SantaCruzParent.com and SBParent.com.

Go ahead and practice on the front end doing test entries on the Events Calendar and Business Listing so you can see how clients use our site. Just title them "Test Entry - Mary Doe", don't worry they won't be activated.

Lastly email us a letter about why you are interested in joining our team, what neighborhood or resource interests you and why you would be good at this endeavor.  Feel free to call and chat.
