ABOUT THE SHELF

We are a fast-growing influencer marketing agency specializing in data-driven campaigns. Our strategies leverage industry insights, social listening, and analytics to guide creative decisions. Then, we let the results take it from there—each strategic move is influenced by top-performing influencers and content.

Everyone claims to be data-backed, but we prove it using our Optimization Flywheel, driving brands to exponentially higher ROI:

  • One of our clients used a paid agency for lower-funnel conversion campaigns—our top-funnel campaigns outperformed them by 5x in conversions.
  • TikTok (yes, the platform itself) confirmed that our campaigns perform 500x above their ad benchmarks in watch time. (Not a typo—we double-checked.)
  • One of our TikTok ads ranked #2 globally on TikTok’s leaderboard for an entire month.

But what truly sets us apart is our people-first culture. We believe exceptional work comes from teams who feel valued, supported, and balanced. We actively discourage burnout, and our founders are deeply committed to maintaining a 40-hour workweek as the norm—not the exception. We prioritize family, flexibility, and health, which is why we offer generous benefits, including flexible PTO, 100% covered healthcare, and company holidays that actually get honored. Though we’re fully remote, we make it a point to come together in Atlanta (our HQ) for meaningful off-sites that foster collaboration and connection. We’ve also invested in hiring senior leaders from top agencies and platforms to help shape the next generation of our business and to ensure our team is learning and growing alongside the best in the industry.

REQUIREMENTS

Experience: 5+ years in a sales or partnerships role, preferably in influencer marketing, digital media, or advertising (its OK if you’re new to influencer marketing but are an expert hunter!)
Consultative Sales Skills: You know how to sell without sounding like a salesperson—you’re a natural at guiding conversations and adding value.
Marketing & Industry Knowledge: Deep understanding and/or passion for influencer marketing, social media trends, and paid media strategies.
Pipeline & CRM Management: Experience using HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar to manage deals.
Exceptional Communication: You’re a charismatic, confident communicator who can connect with brands and executives.
High Energy & Drive: You thrive in a fast-paced, high-performance sales environment.
Strong Writing Skills: You can craft compelling outreach emails and sales materials that engage and convert.
Entrepreneurial Mindset: You take initiative, solve problems, and hustle to close deals.

Responsibilities

ROLE OVERVIEW

As a Brand Partnerships Manager, you’ll be responsible for owning the sales process—from prospecting and outreach to closing new business and growing client relationships. You won’t just sell; you’ll consult, strategize, and educate brands on how to maximize ROI through influencer marketing.
This role isn’t just about hitting quotas (though you’ll have aggressive goals). We need someone who can hold high-level strategic conversations, recommend influencer campaign structures, and act as a trusted consultant to potential clients. Our best salespeople don’t “sell"—they advise, connect dots, and craft tailored influencer strategies that feel like a natural extension of a brand’s marketing objectives.
This role requires a blend of charisma, strategic thinking, and deep knowledge of influencer marketing. If you love building relationships, geeking out over marketing strategy, and closing deals that actually deliver results, this role is for you.

SUCCESS IN THIS ROLE WILL BE MEASURED BY:

New Business Closed – Monthly & quarterly revenue targets met/exceeded.
Pipeline Management – Deals progressed through the funnel efficiently.
Outbound Outreach & Prospecting – Consistent lead generation efforts.
Market Knowledge – Deep understanding of influencer trends & strategies.
Networking & Industry Engagement – Participation in key industry events.
