What We are Looking for

You will be directly responsible for driving the end-to-end strategy and execution of our lifecycle marketing strategy for Launch Potato's FinanceBuzz brand which has around 7 million monthly consumer visits. This is an opportunity to be an owner and a doer, someone who will scale, rebuild, or reimagine an email brand that already does well over $1M in revenue annually. (This is NOT a managerial role). We need someone who can Hustle and roll up their sleeves and do the work. The only limitations are your imagination and data-driven creativity as you launch new initiatives and campaigns that impact millions of consumers monthly.

You are driven by your own motivation and success, you should be the one telling us when the job is done, not the other way around. You love the never ending pursuit for perfection in lifecycle marketing which allows you to thrive in an extremely fast-paced, dynamic environment. You are going to be rolling up your sleeves and need to understand consumer psychology and the need for quality content and messaging.

You must be passionate about being hands on in data and utilize insights to drive your email strategies from ideation, to send, to inboxing and action. You thrive on success and the impact that your work has on consumers as well as the impact to the business: Revenue, Life Time Value (LTV), and Revenue per User (RPU).
