JOB OVERVIEW

You're a direct-response creative strategist who turns cold traffic into revenue. You find the mechanism, the angle and the hook, write the advertorial/VSL, and build the funnel: Ad -> advertorial / VSL / quiz / presell -> landing page -> Shopify. If a scroll-stopping hook and a tight VSL give you a kick, keep reading.

We're a leading German health & wellbeing brand, relaunching a DTC line in the clean-air / wellness space. (Confidential hire - we'll share the brand on our first call.) We have the product and customers; we need someone to rebuild profitable acquisition and scale it - with real upside + the path to grow into a lead role. It's not a me-too product: it's science-backed, with real studies, a proven mechanism and media features behind it - so you'll have real proof and authority to build your funnels around (ideal for direct response). We work off proven direct-response playbooks and use AI heavily.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:
- Creative strategy: research -> mechanism -> angles -> hooks -> scripts & briefs (advertorials, VSLs, ads)
- Produce or direct: produce yourself (video + static with AI) or brief & direct an editor (we can add one)
- Build the funnels with (AI-)landing-page builders & Shopify
- Run & read the ads (Meta first; native like Taboola a big plus; Google optional): test hooks aggressively, scale winners
- Email automation + remarketing + lead-magnet funnels for non-converters
- Help run the Shopify shop (products, pages, merchandising, conversion) - a support task at first, can grow over time
- Jump in across the business where needed (product, ops - whatever moves the needle); you like to roll up your sleeves and take ownership

YOU:
- ~3+ years with real results (numbers) as a creative strategist / direct-response marketer
- Direct-response to the core: mechanisms, angles, hooks, scripts, VSLs, advertorials + persuasion psychology
- You can produce (video + image with AI) or at least brief & direct an editor
- Built funnels end-to-end (with (AI-)landing-page builders & Shopify)
- Strong Meta creative + copy; AI-native
- Numbers-aware: read & understand analytics and iterate
- Comfortable across the full stack (Shopify/CRO, email/CRM, reading analytics, AI workflows) - SEO know-how a plus, not required
- Above all: growth mindset & a strong will to learn, entrepreneurial ownership, and real drive - you learn fast, own outcomes, and outwork the problem
- Full-time, with a few hours of daily CET overlap

WHAT WE OFFER:
- Own the whole growth engine + real budget + a German company behind you
- A product with real substance to sell - studies, a genuine mechanism and media features = ideal for direct response (proof + authority)
- Competitive salary ($2,000-3,500/month + performance upside) - exact number depending on your experience & track record
- A paid trial project first
- Path to a lead role
- European working hours - a friendlier schedule for you
- Work directly with an experienced serial founder (build & scale, hands-on)

HOW TO APPLY (read carefully - this filters out copy-paste):
1. Start your message with the word "CLEANAIR" so we know you read the full post.
2. Send 2-3 concrete work samples: real ads / advertorials / VSLs / funnels YOU built (links or screenshots, with numbers if possible).
3. In 3-5 sentences: walk me through one funnel you built (ad -> page -> conversion) and the result.
4. One line: a favorite marketing resource (book, expert, YouTube, podcast...) + one specific thing you actually apply from it.

We read every application that follows these 4 steps. Generic applications get ignored.
