We’re so deeply tired of YouTube and social media videos about email that cover the same old topics in the same old ways.
At GMass, we never do anything unless we can do it in a different and better way than anyone else. That philosophy on the product also extends to our content.
So now, we’re looking for someone who can take a fresh approach to videos.
We’re hiring a video content creator to create engaging, useful, entertaining, and cool short-form videos about all things email and GMass. In this role you’ll come up with ideas (eventually), write scripts, serve as the on-camera talent, edit, and publish the videos — basically, every aspect of the process from start to finish.
This is a contract position with no specific end date;as long as the videos are good, the audience is growing, and the videos are bringing in results, we’ll keep making them.
