Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Research and build prospect lists of DTC/CPG brands that fit Clap’s platform (youth-focused, challenge-friendly, socially active)
  • Draft personalized outreach emails and help book intro calls with brand prospects
  • Prep for brand calls: competitive research, tailored talking points, customized pitch decks
  • Join brand and creator calls — first as a shadow, then as a contributor, then leading portions
  • Track the pipeline: who we’ve contacted, where conversations stand, what’s next
  • Help capture metrics, draft write-ups, and package our first case study — this is a key deliverable for outbound and fundraising
  • Help onboard our first brand partners — manage campaign setup, timelines, and deliverables as we bring brands onto the platform
  • Build repeatable processes for brand campaigns (briefs, approvals, launch checklists) that we can eventually productize into the Clap platform
  • Coordinate with our marketing agency to ensure influencer activations and brand campaigns launch in sync

Requirements

  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, or similar
  • Strong writer - you can draft a cold email that doesn’t sound like a template
  • Naturally curious and resourceful - you Google it before you ask
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and fast pace (this is a startup, not a syllabus)
  • Interested in creator economy, social platforms, and interactive content
  • Bonus: experience with AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT, or similar
  • Bonus: familiarity with Meta/TikTok Ads Manager, Webflow, or influencer marketing platforms
