E-commerce Manager (DFY) — Product Research · Store Build · Creatives · Ads
Full-time · Remote
About the Role
We run a high-velocity Done-For-You (DFY) e-commerce program for investor-type clients. You will own the end-to-end build and launch of stores and campaigns over a 60-day sprint: product research ? store setup ? creative production ? launch ? ad management ? iteration. The goal is simple: do the maximum reasonable work in 60 days to validate and scale winners—or transparently document tests when they don’t meet standards.
What You’ll Own (End-to-End)
Product Research: Rapid validation, competitive angles, pricing, light PMF checks.
If a product underperforms early (poor first-data), pause and switch—no ad-spend waste.
Allowed to test one winner across multiple students (different ad accounts/audiences).
Store Building: Fast, clean, conversion-ready storefronts (home/product/cart/checkout), upsells, trust, policy pages.
Creative Production: Functional > perfect. Use AI and templates to ship iterative UGC, hooks, statics, short-form, variations for fast testing.
Media Buying: Launch, structure, and manage campaigns; budgets, targeting, CBO/ABO, retargeting, bid strategies; daily/48h optimization cycles focused on ROAS-impacting inputs.
Reporting & Communication: Looms + update calls, clear metrics, decisions, next steps. Transparent logs of tests and outcomes.
How We Work (Principles)
ROAS first: No “nice-to-have” busywork (e.g., organic social) unless it affects revenue.
Speed & iteration: Ship ? measure ? change product/creative swiftly; keep the store.
Documentation: Short Looms and checklists for every major change.
Transparency: If it works ? scale. If not ? show exactly what was tested.
Your First 60 Days (Typical)
Week 1–2: Research 3–5 products, build store v1, produce creative packs v1, launch test campaigns.
Week 3–4: Kill underperformers, refactor creatives, iterate offers/angles, tighten PDP, expand audiences.
Week 5–8: Scale validated SKU(s), add creative v2/v3, deepen LTV (bundles/upsells/email basics), document everything.
Success Metrics (You’ll Be Measured On)
Speed to First Data: Time to launch from brief (target: ?7–10 days).
Testing Throughput: # of creative/product iterations per week.
Decision Quality: Timely pauses/switches on poor data; clear rationale.
Unit Economics: Progression in CPR/CTR/CVR/CPA/ROAS during the 60-day window.
Client Experience: Update cadence (Looms/calls), clarity, and renewal propensity.
Requirements (Must-Have)
Hands-on DFY/agency experience across product research, store build, creatives, and paid social (Meta/TikTok/Google—Meta required).
Performance mindset: Comfortable killing ideas quickly and switching SKUs.
Tooling: Shopify, Meta Ads Manager, Google Analytics, product spy tools, creative editors (CapCut/Premiere/Canva), and at least one AI workflow (scripts/voiceover/image).
Communication: Clear English, concise Looms, structured weekly updates.
Availability: Full-time; able to manage multiple accounts concurrently.
Nice to Have
Background in UGC pipelines, briefs, and influencer seeding.
Experience with offer tests (pricing, bundles, urgency, guarantees).
Knowledge of
Familiarity with CBO/Advantage+ Shopping, creative exhaustion detection, and bid caps.
Compensation & Upside
Base per client: $150/month per customer ? $300 per customer for a 2-month sprint.
Typical load: 15–20 customers simultaneously ? example: $300 × 20 = $6,000 per 2 months (base).
Bonuses:
$100 for a video interview (case study) you help produce.
Performance bonuses (examples): $200 for hitting $10k in 30 days; $500 for $50k in 90 days.
Profit share: 5–10% of the customer’s profits (usual baseline 10%), when applicable.
Renewal assist bonus: % bonus if you concretely assist the seller to secure a renewal or DWY (e.g., you run/record a consult that motivates the client to renew).
Growth path:
Service renewals ? increased portfolio / higher base.
DFY/Delivery Manager Rep track with additional fixed monthly compensation.
Expanded profit-share on accounts you scale.
Important: Covering both roles (store + ads) is full-time. Each client runs on independent ad accounts; audience overlap is managed in testing.
Tools You’ll Use
Shopify · Meta Ads Manager · TikTok Ads (nice) · Google Ads (nice) · GA4 · Product research tools (AdSpy/Pipiads/Ecomhunt or similar) · CapCut/Premiere/Canva · Sheets/Docs · Slack · Loom.
Schedule & Collaboration
Remote. Flexible hours, but you must maintain daily ad checks and scheduled client updates.

What Success Looks Like (90 Days)
You’re running multiple client sprints with on-time launches and disciplined test cadences.
You can diagnose quickly (creative fatigue vs offer vs PDP vs audience vs price).
You’ve produced case-study-worthy results OR clean documentation showing rigorous tests and next steps.
Your client renewals and referral rates are trending up.
