Copywriter

Summary

The Scale Space is a marketing agency that runs full-funnel growth for clients through paid ads, automation, and strategy. They are hiring a copywriter to own performance-driven messaging across short-form video scripts, ads, VSLs, landing pages, email, and SMS for multiple client brands.

Responsibilities

• Write the scripts behind reels, shorts, and vertical ads: hook, body, payoff, call to action
• Write hooks that earn the first three seconds, and multiple hook variants per concept so the media buyer has something to test
• Write for the format. A script that reads well on paper and dies on camera is a failed script
• Write to the creator or the client owner delivering it, in their voice, not yours
• Ad scripts, angles, and primary text across Meta and Google
• Multiple angles per offer, built to be tested against each other rather than picked by taste
• Rework what is fatiguing based on what the performance data says, not on what you liked writing
• Write VSLs end to end: lead, problem agitation, mechanism, proof, offer, close
• Handle objections inside the copy instead of hoping the sales call catches them
• Adapt the same core argument to different lengths and different levels of audience awareness
• Write landing page and funnel copy that matches the ad that sent the visitor there
• Headlines, subheads, body, proof sections, form and button copy
• Give the designer a clear read on hierarchy and what each section has to do
• Promotional campaigns, launch and event sequences, nurture, reactivation, win-back
• SMS that reads like a person texting and still moves someone to act, inside the character limit
• Sequence logic, not just isolated sends: what fires when, and what each message is for
• Proof your own work. Offer details, dates, prices, and disclaimers are correct before anyone else sees them
• Check your copy against the brief and the brand voice file before you call it done
• Keep a swipe and template library so the good stuff gets reused instead of rewritten

Skills

• * US-based
• * Fully remote, work from home, permanently
• * Full-time, 8 hours/day with breaks
• * Working hours: 9am to 5pm PST, every day
• * Sole full-time commitment
• * Short form video scripts are a hard requirement. You have written scripts that got produced and ran. Bring them. This is the first thing we look at and a portfolio without them does not move forward
• * 2+ years writing direct response copy, ideally agency side across several clients at once. One in-house brand is a different job
• * VSL experience. You have written at least one long-form video sales letter from start to finish and you can walk us through why it was built the way it was
• * Ads, landing pages, email, and SMS. You have shipped all four, and you understand how they connect rather than treating them as separate assets
• * Voice switching. A med spa, a boutique hotel, and a roofing company in the same week, and none of them sound like you
• * You write to a number. Conversion rate, cost per lead, click through, booked appointments. You have seen your copy tested and you have been wrong before and fixed it
• * AI-native. You use AI daily to move faster, and you know the difference between using it as a drafting tool and passing raw output off as finished work. We can tell
• * Native or near-native written English. You are writing customer-facing copy in English all day
• * Able to work 9am to 5pm PST, US-based, sole full-time commitment
