About The Role

We’re looking for a Creative Strategist who lives and breathes direct response advertising and understands how to turn insights, emotions, and objections into ads that scale.

NOTE: This is a remote role under an independent contractor agreement.

You will own the creative strategy behind our paid ads, from ideation and angles to briefing, testing, iteration, and scaling. You’ll work closely with media buyers, creators, editors, and founders to continuously push performance while staying aligned with the brand vision.

This role is for someone who understands that creative is the biggest lever in paid growth.

Responsibilities

• Creative Strategy & Ideation
• Develop high-converting direct response ad concepts for Meta, TikTok, and other paid channels
• Create strong angles, hooks, and messaging frameworks for a mature female audience
• Translate product benefits into emotion-driven, problem-solution ads
• Continuously generate new concepts while iterating on proven winners
• Testing, Scaling & Iteration
• Analyze performance data (hooks, retention, CTR, CPA, ROAS)
• Identify winning creatives and patterns
• Create structured iterations to scale winners

Briefings & Collaboration

• Write clear, actionable briefs for UGC creators and editors
• Guide creators on tone, structure, objections, and delivery
• Work closely with editors to align creative & performance
• Collaborate with brand and marketing teams to ensure consistency

Market & Customer Insight

• Identify key objections, desires, fears, and buying triggers
• Monitor competitors and market trends
• Turn customer feedback and reviews into ad concepts

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ Years as a D2C Creative Strategist: Proven experience scaling physical product brands (supplements, beauty, footwear, apparel, or similar) either in-house or at an agency with named client portfolios.
• Strong background in direct response advertising
• Proven video ad concepts that scaled on Meta or TikTok, backed by real metrics (spend, CPA, ROAS, and hook or hold rate). Statics and native-only winners are not enough, our volume is 80% video, and current formats demand deep video fluency.
• Experience managing a pod, creator roster, or editing team, assigning work, flagging bottlenecks early, and keeping tracking systems pristine. Be ready to share an example of when an editor's output missed the mark and how you course-corrected that week.
• Dedicated 40 hours a week to a single team. You are looking to build, optimize, and grow within a structured ladder.
• You read the numbers yourself, hook rate, hold rate, CTR, CPC, CPA, and ROAS. You utilize a structured iteration ladder (format, character, hook, body, length) and know precisely where to look to diagnose drop-offs.
• Strong copy instincts (hooks, headlines, CTAs)
• Data-driven mindset with creative intuition
• Ability to move fast, test fast, and learn fast

Must-Have Skills

• Creative concepting & angle development
• Direct response copywriting
• Performance analysis & iteration
• Clear briefing & communication
• Strong ownership mentality
