About this role
ABOUT AI ACQUISITION
We help entrepreneurs build AI-powered businesses. $50M+ ARR, high-volume Meta campaigns, scaling fast. We don’t make pretty content — we make ads that convert.
WHAT THIS ROLE ACTUALLY IS
You’ll edit performance ads for our Meta campaigns. High volume, fast turnaround, results-driven.
This is not a YouTube editing role. This is not a cinematic filmmaking role. This is a direct-response advertising role. Success is measured by speed, output, testing velocity, and whether the ads work.
If you need two weeks to edit one ad, this isn’t your role. If you can ship multiple variations in a day and iterate based on data, keep reading.
WHAT YOU’LL BE EDITING
Founder-style spokesperson ads · UGC ads · Testimonial ads · VSLs · Webinar promo ads · Talking-head ads · Podcast-style ads · AI-generated creative · Motion graphic ads · Hybrid AI + live-action ads
