About the Job
Are you frustrated with production bottlenecks that keep your promos from getting out the door – and keep you from making as much as you should be?
Tired of jockeying for the good promos while getting stuck on projects with low revenue potential?
Burnt out writing about the same old stuff again and again?
Tired of your copy being expected to turn lackluster products into magic bullets?
Sick of your promos getting yanked back into endless compliance reviews after they've already published?
If so, we may have the solution that will make you excited to wake up every day and write copy again.
How?
By selling a newsletter-adjacent trading software that can be backtested six ways to Sunday, creating proof and credibility that basically allows the product to sell itself.
By getting to be a big fish in a small pond where you choose which product you want to write about and how.
By working with a team that is willing to experiment and help develop the biggest, boldest ideas you can come up with.
By writing financial copy for TradeSmith.
TradeSmith combines the best of ‘big idea’ copywriting with the backtested track record of a world-class WealthTech product.
