Senior Copywriter

Remote - Austin, TX

We’re Looking for a Premium Senior Copywriter to Join our Team! (100% Remote)

Do you obsess over writing the perfect sales page headline? Nerd out over all things online sales and digital marketing? Or get that little tingling feeling (not in that way) when you see your email copy drive record open rates, clicks and sales?

If so, you may be our perfect fit... and vice versa. Huzzah!

We’re hiring an experienced Senior Copywriter to help us with our copywriting needs.

This is an ongoing contract position with flexible hours. 

About Live Your Message

Our mission is to get people so excited about changing their lives... that they stop dreaming and start doing. 

Through "choose your own adventure" online business education, we make it possible for anyone with a big message to reach more people, make more money and have a bigger impact by creating a business that's authentic and aligned with who they are.

In service of this mission, our team is behind some of the most creative online marketing and digital product launches out there and we partner with the top business & internet marketing minds on the planet. 

As you can imagine, it's a good time to be in online education and we're experiencing rapid growth. Live Your Message grew by 80% in the height of the pandemic, landing us on the Inc 5000 List of Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America for four years in a row. 

Your mission -- should you choose to accept it -- is to...

  • Collaborate and brainstorm with the CEO to create, edit and proof high quality sales pages, opt-in pages, launch materials and emails that compel customers to take action 
  • Work on multiple projects in a fast-moving environment. As needed, support the team in developing their crafts and effectively communicating strong, recognizable brand voice & tone across all platforms
  • Work with our awesome ad agency to find out what’s working and where improvements need to be made in our array of evergreen funnels
  • Create messaging, hooks, angles and emails for our joint venture and internal email campaigns
  • Review survey responses, blog comments and other data to generate ideas for new lead magnets and products we can create that’ll help us grow our tribe and our bottom line
  • Work on other special projects as required, such as help out with additional copy for our live event and product launch funnels
  • Come up with ideas for how to improve our evergreen funnel pages and email campaigns -- and work with our tech team to set-up split tests -- so that they result in more leads and sales

About You:

  • You have 5+ years of direct response copywriting experience, ideally for one or more online businesses in the online education, coaching or training industries.
  • You can ideate original and compelling marketing hooks, messaging and calls to action that generate measurable results - with the portfolio & track record of stats to prove it.  
  • You have a data-driven approach and seek to optimize copy based on the metrics. You’ve written squeeze pages, sales pages, email campaigns, video scripts and Facebook ad copy and have examples (and ideally, results) of each to show.
  • You’re passionate about growth and self-improvement. You're always up-leveling your skills, working to be your best each day and want to make a positive impact on the world through the work that you do.
  • You’ll be able to nail our brand “voice” relatively quickly. In a market full of talking heads, copycats and surface-level communicators, we’re unmistakable and never boring. We dare to be creative, playful, smart, provocative and vulnerable all at the same time. You’ll need to be able to infuse story, metaphor and humor into your copy so that it connects, entertains, educates and converts.
  • You’re tech savvy. You’re super resourceful and can find your way around pretty much anything online. The idea of working with Google Docs, project management software, instant messenger and virtual meeting rooms doesn’t freak you out, and you’re confident you can learn new online systems if you need to.
  • You come equipped with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, ready and willing to take full ownership of your role and the results you’re accountable for producing… and you’re adept at juggling competing priorities and coming out on top.

The Deets:

This is a contract position and we’re looking for someone who’s interested in sticking around to grow with us... There will be plenty of opportunities for growth here!

The role is currently 100% remote, but you need to be available to work during “normal business hours” regardless of the time zone you live in (approximately 9am to 6pm Pacific, give or take two hours, with some flexibility).  Some weekend and night work will be required during events and launch activities. And, having a reliable up-to-date computer is a must!

What to Expect as a Teammate of Live Your Message

You’ll never be penalized for taking initiative to solve a problem or to fix a systems issue that you identify.

You’ll be part of a hard-working and amazing team who are dedicated to making a difference in this world through the people we serve -- a team who truly enjoys what they do… and has fun along the way too!

You’ll be supported with practical information and systems that set you up for success.

By now you have a sense of who we are, what we do and the opportunity that awaits you. If this position is calling out to you, we want to hear from you -- and soon! Please include writing samples when applying.
