This isn't inheriting a follower count; it's creating one. You'll own our voice, our content, and our presence across the platforms where the fandom actually lives. About Us We design and make accessories for furries — wearable pieces, fursuit-adjacent gear, and convention merch — with an emphasis on quality craftsmanship and community-first branding. We're a small maker-owned business in launch phase, which means real influence over brand direction from day one and zero corporate layers between you and the owner. What Success Looks Like Twelve months in, you've built an engaged following across 2-3 platforms, established a consistent content cadence and brand voice, driven measurable traffic to our shop and convention tables, and can show which content converts — not just which content gets likes. What You'll Do Own content strategy and day-to-day posting across our core platforms (e.g., Twitter/X, Bluesky, Instagram, TikTok, Telegram) Create phone-shot photo and short-form video content featuring products, process, and behind-the-scenes making Build and manage a content calendar aligned to product launches, convention season, and community events Engage with the community authentically — replies, reposts, artist collabs, and commission-adjacent networking Track analytics and turn them into action: what to post more of, where to shift effort, what's converting to sales Support convention marketing — pre-con hype, table announcements, and post-con follow-up
What We're Looking For Required:

Have:
Experience marketing handmade, maker, or artist-alley products Convention vending or artist-table experience Basic graphic design (Canva or similar) and email marketing exposure Experience running small paid campaigns (Meta, TikTok) Compensation [Hourly rate or monthly retainer — to be confirmed.] Independent contractor engagement; flexible hours around an agreed posting schedule. How to Apply Send a short intro, links to accounts or content you've run, and 2-3 examples of posts or campaigns you're proud of to [contact email]. Fandom-side handles welcome.
