There’s a reason why “struggling artist” is a well-known term. At Applause, we’re changing that. Spurred by the devastation wrought by the pandemic, we’re building a new medium for creators and fans to foster long-term community through highly gamified, live, two-way interaction. Applause empowers creators and their fans to have more fun and connect more deeply than ever before; as a result, creators make far more money than on any other platform.
We only recently launched but thousands of fans have already taken part in events on Applause — events that have brought tears of joy to the eyes of fans and smiles to the faces of musicians, comedians and other creators alike.
Our mission is to empower creators and fans to thrive through a direct connection with one another, both during the pandemic and far beyond.
Applause is seeking a Content & Social Media Manager who understands the power of compelling content and social media — not only for growing and scaling a business but, more importantly, as a vital means of building community. As Applause’s content lead and social media manager, you’ll be responsible for conveying the overall messaging that represents Applause to the creators and fans you’ll be engaging with frequently.
You will have a key role in helping Applause’s marketing team achieve its goals of building a community around Applause’s creators and their fans, growing adoption, and increasing engagement. You will have ownership over which resources are required and which strategy will serve Applause best. You will be expected to lead and implement the most effective overall social strategy while continuously iterating on that process based on data-informed results.
You’ll work closely with the company’s marketing team, along with Artist Relations, the Product team, and Applause’s co-founders to influence the growth strategy of the company overall. The right person for this role has experience working in music, entertainment and/or startups, organically growing socials and a proven track record of creating compelling content (across social media, email, SEO and other channels).
