JOB SUMMARY

We’re looking for a highly driven person to lead creator partnerships for a budding creator economy tech startup. You’ll be the first employee of a 3 person team for a startup that already has funding, growing monthly recurring revenues, and repeat creators and users.

You will lead creator identification, sales, support, and strategy. Your ability to get creators to join the platform will be critical to the success of the company. And as the first employee, you will work closely with the founders to help drive decision making for other aspects of the business as well.

WHO YOU ARE

The ideal candidate has a) a deep and current understanding of the creator economy across many verticals, b) an intuitive ability to communicate with creators, and c) the desire and hustle necessary to scale an early stage tech startup.

You are a gifted communicator who is skilled at getting the attention of a wide array of creators - whether by sliding into DMs, cold emailing, getting intros from your existing network, etc.

You have hustle, you are highly organized, you are entrepreneurial, and you are comfortable taking initiative within a small team.

You identify patterns in user behavior and can propose systems to improve the experience for users, increase revenue, or improve internal processes.

WHO WE ARE

We are a funded creator economy tech startup that launched its beta 6 months ago and already has traction with repeat users and growing monthly recurring revenues.

Popcall is a link-in-bio tool for influencers, coaches, and experts to take instant "facetime" calls from their followers and get paid per minute if they pick up or call back. For callers, it’s an informal way to hop into a convo with someone they want to speak to. For creators, it’s a novel way to connect or offer advice and get paid when they feel like it.

How the product works

• Creators keep their Popcall link in their link-in-bio.
• People who want to talk leave them a short video voicemail.
• Creators video call back any time they want and get paid per minute at whatever rate they set.
