Who you are

You always keep the customer and market segment you are writing to in mind. Your tone is friendly,
approachable, yet professional and straightforward. You are at ease when putting some technical
concepts and marketing jargon into layman's terms. You follow the latest writing trends and can interpret
technical copy and turn it into persuasive copy concepts.

You are known to construct clear, concise sentences and write error-free content that represents our
brand and converts leads into customers. You are mindful of things like flow, readability and sentence
variety. You are comfortable writing in Chicago style. You understand the basics of Search Engine
Optimization (SEO) and are aware (or don’t mind researching) the best keyword and linking practices
when it comes to social, blog, web and email content.

You know how to create clear, concise CTAs and produce quality short and long-form demand
generation content. You enjoy working with other writers, editors and are comfortable interacting with the
executive leadership team. You have a “tough skin” when providing, getting and incorporating feedback
and making adjustments to your work. You are creative and propose engaging writing topics and are
able to re-purpose video content as newsletter, social posts and other assets as needed.

You are experienced and comfortable collaborating with the design team and able to think outside the
box to solve problems in a remote work environment, utilizing Slack & Zoom.

You are customer-focused and empower them with information and education. You share expertise, but
