Were hiring! Please apply if interested and share if not! You cant be any worse than the last guy. youtu.be/HQiHQCS3am0 Job Announcement: Ranger Up Marketing Team – Customer Acquisiton Lead Location: Durham, NC Primary Job Purpose/Summary: We’re looking for a hyper-creative workaholic freak with a marketing background to report directly to the CEO and work with a really weird group of marketers to help Ranger Up reach lots more new customers and eventually conquer the entire universe. Ideal candidate is a veteran with an honorable discharge. You will also have a significant role in: generating shirt concepts, generating video concepts, writing for the Damn Few cartoon, and running promotional events. For the right person, this job will be a blast. You’ll have the opportunity to come up with ways to give back to the military community, run major events and parties, and be an integral part of the nerve center of the company. Keep in mind though, at Ranger Up, we work a hell of a lot harder than we party and we party hard. To get this job, you need to prove that you are creative and can add value to the team’s idea cell, are a self-starter, and are trustworthy and mature enough to run an event in the CEO/COO’s absence and have it kick an equal or greater amount of ass. As with any small business, you’ll wear many hats and take part in many different functions. Quality work is rewarded aggressively. Essential Duties/Responsibilities (Other duties may be assigned): Our policy is that no task is too big or too small for anyone in the company. While most employees have military backgrounds, we have a very egalitarian structure and on busy days, the CEO, COO and managers will be out on the floor helping fold shirts and pick packages just like anyone else. Employees that feel they are too good for any task will not succeed here, and will likely end up as a hilarious Cautionary Tale on our award-winning military blog: The Rhino Den. Regardless of the aforementioned statement, your job will entail: • Developing and executing customer acquisition strategies • Coming up with shirt ideas • Planning and running events • Being part of The Damn Few writing team • Coming up with new things we haven’t even thought of yet that rule Minimum Qualifications: • Marketing experience or formal training (ideally a degree) in marketing or something equivalent. We really don’t care which (and obviously both is great) but we want a person that understands how to structure and solve marketing and business problems. If the 4 Cs and 3Ps don’t ring a bell, this might not be the right gig for you. • A person who wants to succeed and improve and is willing to work to make it so. Everyone wants to be the best, but most people aren’t willing to work hard enough for it. Those are the people we’d eat during the Zombie Apocalypse. We don’t need to hire them. We work very hard and expect employees to be self-motivated and surprise us with positive results. • The ability to generate lots of ideas, get told many of those ideas suck, and then still come up with just as many the next day. • Excellent written and verbal communication skills. We like people who can write well and communicate effectively with others. • Basic Skills in Powerpoint, Excel, Word, etc. • Ability to work in a team environment as a positive contributor. We’re a really tight knit organization and we have a lot of fun and we don’t want anyone urinating in our proverbial Cheerios. Bad attitudes are not accepted. We hire people to solve problems, not make them. • You have to genuinely believe in giving back to the military, LEO, Fire, and First Responder communities. We’re really good at spotting people who pay lip service to this facet of our company. If you don’t believe it, we will know. And we’ll tell your Mom. Qualifications that Can’t Hurt: • Previous work with writing, video, and other creative works. • Experience with digital marketing. • College or training in creative writing, video, or other creative works. • Photoshop or Illustrator experience. • Work experience with an apparel company, video company, video game company, or satirical work company (e.g. The Onion). • Experience with MMA/Wrestling/Boxing/Rugby. • Any other skills you think we should know about. Minimum Physical Abilities (with or w/o reasonable accommodation): • Attendance at warehouse located in Durham, NC • Able to perform standard computer keyboard functions • Ability to see / read standard 21” computer screen Salary and Benefits Salary starts at $36k for people with baseline qualifications. Higher starting salaries are available for particularly impressive candidates with specific skillsets that are valuable to the Company who are able to convince us that they are particularly impressive candidates with specific skillsets that are valuable to the Company. After 90 days of employment (the grace period), employees will be provided with: 1) Health Insurance with Blue Cross/Blue Shield. The company provides a top PPO plan and pays 75% of the cost. 2) Dental Insurance with Blue Cross/Blue Shield. The company provides their top plan and pays 75% of the cost. 3) Individual Retirement Account. The company matches the first 3% of salary. 4) Bonus: Bonuses are tied to company and individual goals. In addition to those benefits, the company has an in house gym, including mats for those who enjoy jiujitsu/wrestling/yoga and heavy bags for kickboxing, as well as the usual assortment of weights and cardio machines, as well as functional fitness tools. Attire At Ranger Up we wear gym shorts and t-shirts every day of the year. The only time we expect an employee in business attire is when they show up to interview for a job (bangs foot on the ground three times). Opportunity for Advancement We are growing wicked fast, have enjoyed double or triple digit growth every year since 2006, and landed in the top 1000 of all American Online Retailers three years in a row with no sign of slowing down. Virtually all employees have been promoted from the ground up. If you are an amazing employee that makes a big difference for us, we’ll give you more responsibility and more pay. How to Apply This job focuses on creativity and new ideas so we aren’t going to give you the blueprint for how to get hired. At a minimum we need you: 1) Send us your Resume’. 2) Give us the structure for and tell us how you’d introduce more customers to Ranger Up. 3) Send us 10 shirt ideas that will knock our socks off. 4) Tell us how you’d add one million dollars to the top line of the company in your first 365 days. Send information to business@rangerup Beyond that, do whatever you think you need to do to show us that we need to hire you. This may seem like a lot of work for a job application. The right person will see this as an opportunity. If this seems like too much work, don’t apply!
