What you'll be doing

This job is all about conceptualizing, creating, and editing product deal page copy for AppSumo. As part of our content team, you’ll work with AppSumo Select partners to market external tools through compelling copy that aligns with our unique brand voice. On the day-to-day, you’ll be:

• Working alongside our content, marketing, and product teams to deliver new copy assets
• Writing captivating, informative, and humorous promotional text that will increase engagement and sales for our e-commerce platform
• A steward of our brand voice: creating copy that is consistent with our style and copy guidelines
• Communicating with external partners and addressing their feedback through copy edits and adjustments
• Maintaining a balance between partner satisfaction and adherence to our brand voice and guidelines
• Working collaboratively with in-house editors and reworking copy where necessary

This is a unique part-time contract role that requires a skilled writer who’s detail-oriented, deadline-focused, and Twitter-funny (i.e., great with one-liners and quick quips). If you’re excited by a fast-paced, startup environment with continuous opportunities for innovation, this role is for you.

In the first three months of this role, success means adapting to our style of copy, effectively editing reviewed work, and delivering copy on time.

A day in the life of an AppSumo Product Writer includes writing product deal copy, editing copy reviewed by external AppSumo Select partners, and working with editors to polish jokes and phrasing, plus adding minor HTML.
