ABOUT THIS POSITION:

We're looking for a direct response copywriter who can own creative strategy, ad writing, and email within a client pod in our info/coaching marketing division.

You'll be embedded in a cross-functional pod alongside a strategist, media buyer, and PM - writing ad scripts, body copy, emails, and hooks for clients spending $100k-$1M+ monthly on ads. But this isn't a "write what you're told" role. You're expected to drive the creative strategy process for your pod - analyzing what's working, understanding why it's working, developing new concepts grounded in data, and coming to creative calls with prepared ideas and reasoning. The strategist collaborates and approves, but you lead on what gets tested and why.

You'll also write email copy within frameworks established by a Senior Copywriter - automation sequences, promotional campaigns, nurture flows. And you'll be pulling from messaging foundations (avatar research, messaging bibles, swipe files) that exist to make your creative sharper and more grounded. You're not starting from scratch on every ad - you're building on a strategic base.

If you're the type of copywriter who wants to understand why winners win - not just that they win - and you want to operate as a strategic partner rather than a production resource, this role is built for that.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:

- You come to creative strategy calls with prepared concepts, data analysis, and clear reasoning for what to test next - not waiting for direction

- You can explain why a winning ad works - the hook, the awareness level, the belief shift, the lead type - not just that it performed well

- Your first drafts are close to final - strategists are refining your copy, not rewriting it

- You know what's winning and losing across your clients without being asked - creative trackers and performance data are part of your daily workflow

- Iterations are based on insight - what messaging element is driving performance, what objection isn't being handled, what awareness level to target next - not surface-level changes

- Your ads are grounded in the messaging foundations built by the Senior Copywriter - not improvised from scratch every time

- The strategist trusts you to lead on creative so they can focus on client relationships and offer strategy

- Email copy is executed cleanly within Senior-defined frameworks - you understand the sequence purpose and write accordingly

A DAY IN THIS ROLE:

Morning: Review your assigned tasks and creative priorities. Check the creative tracker - what launched? What's testing? Any winners or losers from the last batch? Review any feedback or revision requests.

Writing blocks: The bulk of your day is writing - ad scripts, body copy, leads, emails. You're working from messaging foundations and your own performance analysis, not briefs handed to you fully formed.

Performance check: Review creative trackers, Hyros, and reporting data. Know what's winning and losing. This isn't
