Vendors, Listen Up!!!

A street paper vendor sitting on the steps of the U.S. capitol building.

I’ve been selling Street Sense papers for about four years now. It’s very demanding. Long days … too cold in the winter … too hot in the summer. It also can be very competitive among vendors. We are all independent, working for ourselves. But we have a common goal.

Street Sense gives us an opportunity to better our lives and gives us a way to earn and save money. As vendors, we should always look out for each other. Now, I know it’s not easy, but looking out for one another gives us all a better chance to succeed. I promise myself that I will always look out for vendors who just started selling Street Sense papers.

Street Sense will always make sure that each and every vendor will be successful as long as we follow the code of conduct. If any vendor has a problem with another vendor, our vendor manager, Allen, will take care of it.
