Requirements
You are a proven content creator with a strong portfolio that demonstrates your ability to drive engagement and outcomes through storytelling. You do not necessarily come from real estate, but you instinctively understand what makes people stop scrolling and take action. You think in stories and narrative arcs rather than isolated posts or ads. You know how to turn an idea into content that people actually want to watch, share, and remember. You are constantly studying what makes content perform, whether it is Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, or the next platform, and you spot patterns before others do. You are deeply curious, creatively fearless, fast-moving, and AI-native in your workflow and mindset. You enjoy building things from scratch more than maintaining existing processes or rigid templates. You communicate with clarity and empathy, adapting your tone for different audiences and mediums. You are comfortable making decisions quickly and iterating based on real-world feedback and data.
Nice to have
Experience working with real estate professionals, agents, or brokerages to understand their specific content challenges and goals.
