| Description |
Boundaryless Brands is a small e-commerce marketing and technology company that is creating a new website for home improvement products. We plan to have a very active presence in social marketing on the Internet, and are looking for a person to fill that role. This person could either work remotely or work with us at our office in Columbus, Ohio.
Responsibilities of the Position:
- Social marketing – This will involve blogging about home improvement, and interacting with the home improvement community through Twitter, Facebook, posting on other home improvement blogs, posting on home improvement forums, etc.
- Traditional marketing – We also need this person to handle press releases, working with a designer to create print and banner ads, answering media inquiries, etc.
- Due diligence/Reporting/Misc. – We are a small company, so we all wear a lot of hats. You can expect to sometimes be asked to do things that are not within the scope defined above, but these duties will generally be a small part of your time.
- Hourly Requirements – We have enough work for a full-time person, but would also be willing to consider hiring the right person on a part-time basis.
- Outside work – If you currently have a blog or website that you operate, we would be fine with you continuing to operate that site in your spare time.
What We’re Looking For in a Candidate:
- Optimism – Even when you’re succeeding, working for a startup can be challenging. We are looking for someone who is not afraid to take on new challenges on a daily basis.
- Experience in Home Improvement – This qualification is a must, since this position will require the applicant to give expert advice on a broad range of home improvement projects.
- Experience in Social Marketing – This is also a must. This experience should include blogging for sure. Other preferred but not required skills are Facebook, Twitter, press releases, email/newsletter marketing, and some experience posting on forums or as a forum moderator.
- Organization – The demands of this position make it essential to be well-organized.
- Self-Motivation – We’re looking for someone who could grow into a position of importance with the company, and initiative is a must.
- Solid Writing Skills – This position will involve a decent amount of writing for the Web. You don’t need to have been an English major, but we need to know that you can write competently.
Compensation:
Compensation is commensurate with experience and skill set.
Please send a current resume and writing sample to our CMO, Jeff Versteeg
The writing sample can be a link to your blog or blog posts that you have written. We are currently collecting resumes for this position, and will be looking to interview starting in mid June, or possibly sooner depending on workload. We will not respond to any emails until we are ready to start interviewing. Thanks for looking!
