Pros

Run your own business, work remotely, work with local businesses

Cons

Not nearly the commissions they boast; expensive ad prices for even upscale areas; too much work for one person (you'll have to work all the time). EXTREMELY sales culture, full of low-educated wannabes

Best Version Media Response

We proudly offer one of the highest commission rates in the industry. Our independent contractors enjoy financial freedom and flexibility while building a business that brings the community together.

Misrepresentation of Compensation

Business Outlook

Pros

Freedom to choose hours, choose wisely.

Cons

The starting bonus compensation is misrepresented. I sat through a week of training and worked full time for just over a month - using my transportation, gas, phone, and my own social media contacts to make a measly $1,000. I also used my own money to buy business cards, presentation materials, etc. No reimbursing for any of it. The training hyped us up to make anywhere from $2,000 to $10,000. Not even close.

Best Version Media Response

Our Recruiting Team clearly communicates the role and commission model during the interview process. This information is also explained in-depth during initial training. Our Publishers are independent contractors who own their businesses, so optional expenses such as business cards are paid by the Publisher and not BVM. We work with hundreds of entrepreneurs who have found great success with us and we look forward to growing into more communities.
