Job description

Do you enjoy a bit of the strange and unusual? Have you been dreaming about a marketing gig that let's your dark soul vibe? Come on in. The water's fine.

Be a part of the GhostStop Crew!

Here is an opportunity to work with and learn from a respected and award-winning marketing creative. This position would report directly to the owner, Shawn Porter, who's career prior to starting his own business, GhostStop, was Creative Director for one of Orlando's top ad agencies. Having worked with some of the biggest brands like Disney, Pepsi, M&M's, Universal and small businesses alike, Shawn is someone you want to learn from - and he's eager to pass the torch.

We are seeking a Marketing Assistant who is familiar with internet marketing analytics and can help manage our social media efforts. As our front-line to customers, we desire someone good with people who is not afraid to go on camera and tell everyone what we've got going on. We're looking for someone who keeps up with those trends (much more than we do). I'm not saying we're out to do all the trends. But we could be convinced on occasion. So, we need your help.

We manufacture, distribute and sell ghost hunting equipment to paranormal investigators all around the world. We pride ourselves in knowing our equipment well and providing unbeatable customer service to our fellow investigators. As such, an understanding of this field and the tools used is super helpful.

Responsibilities:

• Assisting the owner in all marketing efforts ranging from SEM, PPC and HTML to Insta, TikTok and stories. If you know what all of those even mean, we're on the right track.
• Will be responsible for helping develop new campaigns across multiple avenues to include graphics, copywriting and video then report, analyze, learn and evolve.
• Will be responsible for managing web site content such as product descriptions and photos.
• Responsible for managing brand content and communications.
• Help us evolve our strong brand!

Requirements:

• Strong knowledge of all current social media platforms with a passion to keep up with them as they evolve
• General knowledge of marketing programs, analytics and reporting
• Good verbal and written communication skills
• Basic computer office applications like email
• Comfortability with copywriting, blogging, photography, videography
• Web design/development knowledge is a plus
• Prior experience with marketing reporting and analysis is a plus
• Experience ghost hunting and some knowledge of the field is a plus

In short, we're looking for someone who is comfortable going on a microphone, camera or keyboard ready to chat about ghost hunting. We lean heavily toward those with a passion to learn, reliability and integrity. Training for most skills will be provided. So, you don't have to be an SEO guru. But someone with a passion for marketing would fit in rather well - someone who secretly geeks out over analytics as much as the new trends.

LOCATION: Position is ON-SITE ONLY at our upcoming office in Lynchburg, VA. Local is preferred for timeliness, but we may be open to discuss relocation for the right candidate. No remote.

What's it like working at GhostStop? Well, we don't wear ties. Heck, most of us wear shorts. Occasionally, our dogs visit. Sometimes we dress up. And not like suit-and-tie kind of dress up. I mean Star Wars cosplay kind of dress up. We all get along well because most of us are geeky. We rather like it that way. We're all super respectful, kind and work well with each other. We also LOVE what we do. We're passionate about doing it right. We've spent over 16 year building a reputation for solid work along with top-notch service and we have no plans of straying from that. That's what it's like to be part of the GhostStop Crew.

IMPORTANT: When applying, provide links to social media, sites or videos showcasing your work as they relate to this position. This is the first test - marketing yourself and deciding what you think WE will respond well to. Make sure it's PUBLIC so we can see it!
