Looking for a Growth-Minded eCommerce Email Marketing Superstar!
-------------------------------------------------------------
This is a dream role designed for a high-achiever who is looking for something different. A role at a place where results are more important than hours spent, where we don’t care where you’re working from, a place that cares about you just as much as our clients. We’re building a different kind of workplace and looking for someone special to join us.
-------------------------------------------------------------
- Do you want to grow your skills without burning out or being under-appreciated?
- Are you looking to flex that creative mind of yours in an environment that supports problem solving and experimentation?
- Do you geek out about the latest in eCommerce and email marketing industry news?
- Does the opportunity to drive incredible results for clients excite you?
We’re building a team of the most talented digital marketers distributed across the globe, so if you're a driven, smart and an analytical email marketer who is passionate about taking their skills and career to the next level - this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
Who We Are
We’re a group of talented eCommerce marketers focused on helping D2C eCommerce brands scale profitability. I’m Jason, the founder, and I’ve worked on the consulting and agency side for 20+ years with large brands like Air Canada, Smuckers, Folgers, Nivea, Bick’s, TD Bank, Microsoft, RBC and many more.
We don’t believe in a “9-5” culture or standard 40 hour work weeks. We believe in delivering impact on time and on schedule. We believe in letting every employee set their own hours and to have the work-life balance they deserve.
We don’t believe in growth for the sake of growth. Bigger is NOT better. Better is better. We believe that incredible growth can happen without stress and burnout. Life is too short to be miserable for the sake of a paycheque. We work hard to hire people we enjoy working with, people that love what they do and we find clients with the same values. They must respect our teams, appreciate their talent and be people we genuinely want to help.
We see a new way for agencies to operate and we’re excited for the future.
Our Mission
Our goal is to make a real measurable impact on those around us.
For our clients, our goal is to help 50 entrepreneurs scale to at least $1MM in profit over the next 3 years.
For our team, our goal is for them to live their best life while doing work they love. That means supporting personal and professional growth, encouraging time for passions outside of work, and helping them grow without sacrificing their personal life.
For our community, we want to give back a % of our profits to not-for-profits we care about as a team. Our goal is to become a B-Corp in 3 years.
Making an impact is at the core of our mission. We don’t work to just get paid. We do work that makes an impact and believe in this win-win scenario for everyone around us.
