Junior Creative Stategist Posted yesterday Worldwide Summary $250K/MONTH IN AD SPEND. DOUBLING IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. Junior Creative Strategist (Full-Time): $3,000/month STARTING base that grows with you + 5% commission on the spend your ads drive. Unlimited upside. ----- Read this if you'd rather learn on a real budget than in a course. Most junior creatives spend years writing scripts that never run. Ideas that get $200 of testing, then die in a Google Drive folder. That's not what happens here. We're a fast-growing DTC pet brand putting around $250,000 a month behind our ads, and we plan to double that over the next few months. More spend means more tests, more winners, and more money behind every idea that works. We need someone hungry to help us write them, and we'll pay you more as you get better at it. You don't need a crazy résumé or 10 years in the game. You need some writing chops, a willingness to work hard, and an obsession with getting better. We'll handle the rest. ----- WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO • Write ad scripts: hooks, UGC scripts, problem/solution, testimonial-style, founder-led • Dig into customer research (reviews, Reddit, comment sections, competitor ads) and find the exact words pet owners use • Pitch new angles and concepts every week • Break down what's winning (ours and competitors') and figure out WHY it's winning • Work 1-on-1 with me to turn performance data into the next round of ads ----- WHAT YOU GET • A $3,000/month STARTING base salary. This is where you start, not where you stay. As you hone your craft, sharpen your skills, and drive more results, your base salary goes up. The better you get, the more you earn. Simple as that. • 5% commission on the ad spend behind the creatives you make. If your ads are carrying $50K/month in spend, that's an extra $2,500 that month. Write more winners, earn more. There's no cap. Your upside is unlimited, and our budget is about to double. • 1-on-1 training. Not a course or a Loom library. You get direct feedback on your scripts, your ideas, and your thinking. • Reps at a scale most strategists don't touch until they're senior. You'll see what works on $250K+/month budgets, with real data, in real time. • A real path. We're not hiring a script writer. We're building a creative strategist demon, and we'll take the time to get you there. ----- YOU DON'T NEED A STACKED RÉSUMÉ We're not looking for a senior strategist with a decade of experience. If you've written some scripts, ads, or content and you want to get seriously good, that's enough. Frameworks can be taught. Work ethic and curiosity can't. We'd rather hire someone sharp and hungry and train them our way than hire someone set in their habits. ----- YOU'RE A FIT IF • You can write. Short, punchy, and in plain English. You know a good hook when you read one. • You like research. Rabbit holes, reviews, forums: you actually enjoy figuring out why people buy. • You have more ideas than you know what to do with. • You take feedback without taking it personally, then come back better. • You want to work hard and grow fast, not coast. • Bonus: you're a pet owner and get why people treat their pets like family. THIS ISN'T FOR YOU IF You're looking for a side gig just to make some extra money. This is a full-time role. We're investing real time in training whoever we bring on, so we want someone serious about building a career in creative strategy and growing with us. ----- HOW TO APPLY Please message us on upwork and we will send you an upwork task. ----- The budget is going up. The seat is open now. Applicants who move fast and follow the instructions will hear back first. P.S. Quick recap: a full-time role with a $3K/month starting base that increases as you sharpen your craft and drive results, 5% commission with no cap, 1-on-1 mentorship, and a $250K/month budget that's about to double. If you're serious about becoming a creative strategist, this is your shot.
