Remote – The Egg – Director of Marketing/Outreach (Co-Founder)

March 22, 2021 /

The Egg is seeking a Director of Marketing/Outreach to manage day-to-day marketing and outreach operations. We are young, small, and fast-paced. Digital marketing and advertising initiatives that might come up on the job include Google Ads, Facebook Ads, on-page SEO, off-page SEO, technical SEO, email marketing, conversion rate optimization, social media posting, and more. If you’re not familiar with one specific marketing strategy, that’s fine, but you’ll be expected to learn quickly. Your job will be to manage the macro marketing and outreach strategy to get and grow clientele and student freelancers, while also being in charge of ensuring short-term marketing and outreach goals are met. A marketing team will be built around your position, so you will need to take complete ownership of client initiatives and be able to push the team while treating everyone fairly and fostering compassionate company culture.

This job will require:

– Intimate knowledge of digital marketing and client outreach/research (to be clear, you eventually won’t be doing the actual campaign setup, optimization, etc. You’d be in charge of managing people who will do that work).
– Experience managing remote teams through Slack. We also use Airtable for project management.
– Availability AS NEEDED. Initially, the role won’t require more than 6/8 hours per week but flexibility and responsiveness to time-sensitive communications is a must.
– Keen ability to figure things out in spite of adversity and uncertainty. This cannot be emphasized enough. You will be thrown into a variety of situations and we will expect that you can use the resources at your disposal to figure things out.
-An awesome attitude and a genuine passion for our mission.

Who you are:

A hard-working, team-player with grit. You’re a natural leader with an understanding of how to set and accomplish short-term goals that lead to long-term growth and progress. You aren’t afraid to tackle challenges head-on and are willing to learn new skills and technology on the fly if it means improving efficiencies. You’re people-oriented with an intuition for customer engagement and an ability to develop strong understandings of customer demographics through research and analytics. If you have read this far into the description put “Squirrel” at the top of your application and you will get a priority. Previous marketing experience is necessary, previous startup experience is a plus!

Benefits:
-Working with extremely talented students and founders.
-Learning about the operational aspects of starting and running a business.
-A huge amount of invaluable experience that will add value to any future job you apply to.
-Equity in The Egg.

Remote – Talaria – Multiple Roles

March 15, 2021 /

Role: Talaria – Spring & Summer Internships Multiple Roles

Manager: Tucker Risman

Talaria, LLC (TryTalaria.co), is an Chicago, IL based startup that is currently looking to bring on a small number of caring, creative, and passionate individuals for a variety of Spring and/or Summer internship opportunities in Marketing, Operations, and Copywriting. These interns will have the opportunity to work hand and hand with the founder as we develop an exciting new set of products and services intended to help our customers during one of the most difficult times of their lives. Please send any questions to Tucker@trytalaria.co.

What we do:

Talaria is focused on easing the challenges people encounter after the death of a loved one. It is a difficult time for individuals as they try to manage their own grieving, day-to-day responsibilities, and countless strange tasks that they often have not put too much consideration into. These administrative tasks can take months if not years to complete as they vary from transferring bills & assets; closing subscriptions or digital accounts; notifying employers, the social security administration, or veterans affairs.

Talaria aims to provide education and awareness in life, so that people can use our tools to plan for their end-of-life. When people take advance steps, their families are able to focus on what is most important and spend less time searching for documents or information that is not anywhere to be found. For those who do not want to think about these tasks, Talaria offers services where they can hire a representative to complete these tasks on their behalf. Our mission is to make the experience of loss easier and allow survivors to be focused on themselves instead of these processes.
