Project Marketing & Growth Lead

SMRTLV is a creative team working with brands and client projects across digital, content, visual communications, and video production. We're expanding — and we're not looking for a classic SMM manager or someone to "post content." We're looking for an independent, project-driven marketer who can connect marketing strategy, service packaging, portfolio development, and client acquisition into one working system.

Business Development Partner · Remote · Project-based

How we work together

  • Remote, project-based engagement.
  • Flexible workload that scales with active projects.
  • Paid per project or per agreed milestone.
  • A real path to long-term collaboration and a growing role.
  • Focus on the US and international markets.
  • Mostly async communication, with regular working calls.

What you'll own

  • Audit SMRTLV's current positioning, portfolio, services, and acquisition channels.
  • Define priority client segments and shape a clear offer for each.
  • Help package services, case studies, decks, and proposals.
  • Build a realistic growth and client-acquisition strategy.
  • Propose and test lead-generation channels.
  • Shape the content strategy for SMRTLV as a creative team.
  • Contribute to proposals and marketing decisions on client projects.
  • Brief designers, video editors, and other contributors.
  • Analyze results, log hypotheses, and recommend next moves.
  • Turn completed projects into persuasive portfolio case studies.
  • Join early-stage calls and presentations with potential clients when needed.

Who we're looking for

  • Have hands-on experience in marketing, growth, business development, or building agency services.
  • Know the difference between reach, attention, leads, sales — and actual business value.
  • Can operate at the strategy level and in the weeds, at the same time.
  • Can show case studies with measurable results.
  • Know how to articulate positioning, offers, and client-facing propositions.
  • Understand digital content, short-form video, social media, and the modern AI toolkit.
  • Run your own work independently and keep commitments.
  • Can explain, plainly, why you're recommending a specific move.
  • Take ownership of an agreed area of work.
  • Have English strong enough to analyze the US market and work with English-language materials.

What won't work here

  • Template content calendars as the whole job.
  • Posting for posting's sake, with no business goal behind it.
  • Guaranteed-leads-or-sales promises before studying the project.
  • Case studies with no explanation of your personal role and concrete results.
  • Follower count as the only measure of success.
  • Reluctance to log hypotheses, metrics, and outcomes.
