Overview
Jack of All Trades (Marketing & Social Media Focus) Jobs in Stamford, CT at Owl’s Brew
WANTED: an ambitious, goal-orientated individual that thrives in a results-driven role. If you enjoy helping businesses succeed through marketing – and want to have fun doing it – then this position is for YOU! (How’s that for a cliché sales pitch?!)
Tulip Tree Marketing is a boutique marketing and design firm based in Stewartville, MN that is small enough to care but talented enough to make a big impact through marketing, web and graphic design, copywriting, digital advertising, social media management, and more. We’re a creative company that exists with the sole purpose of making businesses and individuals stand out in this ever-changing world of marketing.
We envision the perfect person for this job being intelligent (but not a know-it-all), out-going (but not obnoxious), persuasive (but not pushy), detail-oriented (but not a perfectionist), and creative (but not lacking in the common sense department…). They’d be someone who is not afraid of having open and honest conversations with clients while keeping their marketing efforts in check; someone who loves meeting new people (prospecting!) and building professional relationships through networking; and, ultimately, someone who truly enjoys finding creative ways to help others to “branch away from the norm.”
If you enjoy transcribing medical documents for 8 hours a day in a dim closet while wearing the same baseball cap you’ve worn since junior high and jamming to Yanni’s greatest hits on repeat… then this job is not for you. At Tulip Tree, we wear lots of hats, change up our music stations daily, and find ourselves doing anything from social media strategy to product cataloging in an open, flexible office environment full of multitasking mania. Intrigued? Read on.
