What they actually want (must-haves)
  • A portfolio of short-form, consumer-facing campaign copy (email, text, direct mail, landing pages, or paid ads) with stated results, not just creative samples.
  • Direct experience designing and reading A/B or multivariate tests, including ones that lost, and the ability to explain what you did with the result.
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools to build a repeatable production or QA workflow, not just to draft copy faster.
  • Comfort working from data and being wrong in public — you'd rather ship a testable hypothesis than defend a favorite line.
  • Strong background in direct-response or growth marketing, not corporate communications or PR.
Nice to have
  • Experience writing for healthcare, insurance, benefits, or another regulated consumer category.
  • Familiarity with Salesforce Marketing Cloud or comparable ESPs/CDPs.
  • Experience writing for contact-center scripts.
