Marketing manager

Blue Seedling (https://www.blueseedling.com/) is the secret marketing superpower behind some of the world’s fastest-growing enterprise B2B startups in Israel and the US.

We’re looking for a marketing manager to join our small, fast-growing, high-performing team. You don’t have to have prior B2B / marketing experience, but you should be curious, ambitious, a get-stuff-done-er, and a phenomenal project manager with client-facing experience. You should also be a strong communicator, and have a knack for business writing.

You’ll be doing impactful work, learning and growing, and working alongside founders and executives of top startups.

Important position notes:

• Blue Seedling does not have offices. This position is fully remote, but we’re looking for US East Coast-based candidates only (because of time zone constraints).
• This is a self-employment position. Read more about our employment philosophy here: https://www.blueseedling.com/blog/the-perks-of-being-self-employed-how-we-work-at-blue-seedling/
• Compensation for this position is an hourly rate of $40/hr. This is equivalent to an annual compensation of about $80K.
• This posting will close on November 8th, 2024. Interviews will be held on a rolling basis during between November 4th and November 15th.

Why Blue Seedling?

Work with the world’s fastest-growing startups. You’ll be working closely with all Blue Seedling team members and partners - other B2B marketers, designers, web developers. You’ll also be interacting with clients - startup CEOs, software developers, and others in the tech startup ecosystem, like VCs and investors.

• “The companies we work with are doing bold, visionary things — and we get to be a part of their story.”

• “In a single day I work with clients in telemedicine, art technology, AI, and fintech. I get to experience different company cultures, different CEO leadership styles, and team mates in different countries. It’s like living a dozen different lives at once.”

Your Enterprise B2B Marketing University. You’ll learn as you go with support from some of the best in the biz, and do something new every day.

• “At Blue Seedling, all the doors are wide open for you. You can participate in any area you want to - it’s up to you. It made me really happy to be able to say 'I want to do that' and do it.”

• “One of my favorite things about Blue Seedling is that we are constantly reimagining what we’re capable of.”

• “How often do you get paid to learn something completely new?”

We’ve been remote, flexible, and people-first since day one. We know how to work remotely and build a tight-knit, collaborative team, no matter where we are (which is currently the East Coast and Israel). We believe our team members are our most important stakeholders and treat them as such.

• “These are the most supportive people you’ll ever meet, both personally and professionally.”

• “Because Blue Seedling is so flexible, I could keep a full time job and hours that fit my needs, and not miss out on anything while my daughter was growing up.”

Your responsibilities - or how you’ll be spending your day

You’ll be an all-in-one B2B marketing master. Here are some examples of projects you’ll work on:

• Write write write. Writing is a big part of what you’ll do. You’ll write email copy, blog posts, social media posts, thank you notes, webinar invites...
• Research and compare different B2B email marketing tools.
• Build a list of the top 2024 US FinTech conferences, and research costs and sponsorship options for each.
• Set up an email marketing campaign in Hubspot. Set up a blog post in Wordpress. Set up a “virtual booth” for an online conference. Set up a chocolate subscription for another Blue Seedling team member. 🍫
• Help produce a webinar from planning to promotion to execution to performance analysis.
• Participate in client calls, team meetings, calls with software vendors, and partner meetings.

Your qualifications - or things you’re good at

• Superb communication skills. You’re a wizard of words – both written and sad. You probably think this job post is too long, and you might have a few suggestions on how to trim it down. You know how to explain complex concepts in clear, pithy prose, and you cannot wait to write a blog post about why Clubhouse is the best — or worst — thing that has ever happened to B2B marketing.
• Detail-obsessiveness and Getting Stuff Done-ness: You hate the thought of anything slipping through the cracks. Spreadsheets and words such as “thorough” are your comfort food. Your desk is always organized, and you practice Inbox Zero religiously. You cringed at the typo in this post.
• Ambitious, curious, resourceful, and fast: You’ve always taken on more than the official job description. You have a way of making things happen even if it seems impossible while making it all seem easy. You’re comfortable with moving fast, making decisions with imperfect data, and learning on your own.
• B2B marketing experience and knowledge with marketing and business software are a plus, but not a must. If you’ve used Marketo, Hubspot, Salesforce, Excel, Photoshop, Canva, or Wordpress, let us know. They’re some of the tools we use every day.
• You’re the person everyone wants on their team. You’re a ray of sunshine and positivity. You like people, and people like you. 🌞

*We are a diverse and inclusive workforce. If you’re excited about working with us but do not meet 100% of the qualifications, we still encourage you to apply.
