Full description
Direct-Response Copywriter — Coaching / InfoAbout the Client
Our client helps online fitness coaches build and scale their acquisition — front-end funnel built done-for-you (VSL, landing page, ad creative), then teaches them to run it themselves.
About the Role
We're looking for a Direct-Response Copywriter to own creative output across the business.
This is a high-ownership, founder-adjacent role, not a production seat at the end of a brief. Creative is the bottleneck: good scripts and good concepts are what make our clients' funnels work, and there aren't enough of them being made. You're here to fix that — for our clients and for the founder's own brand.
You'll work directly with the founder, including a daily call to shape direction and output. You research the market, develop the angle, and write it. You'll also help build the systems that make creative output repeatable rather than dependent on one person.
We use AI. But the reason most copy is bad now is that people let it do the thinking. We want someone with real pride in the craft, whose writing sounds like a person.
ResponsibilitiesCopy & Creative
- Write direct-response video scripts for paid ads — for client accounts and the founder's brand
- Write VSLs, landing pages, thank-you pages and email sequences
- Write short-form and reels scripts for the founder's channels
- Write short-form scripts and long-form scripts for YouTube
- Develop angles, hooks, offers and positioning, not just execute briefs
Research & Strategy
- Research audience, competitors, offers and what's already running
- Turn research into specific, testable angles
- Advise on messaging and positioning for client funnels
Collaboration
- Daily call with the founder to shape direction and output
- Help build templates, swipe libraries and briefing formats the team works from
