You don’t wait to be told what to do—you understand the stakes, take ownership, and captain the team toward tangible, measurable growth in viewership, revenue, and educational impact. Grounded in the YouTube and creator economy space, with a strong eye for what works and what converts on this platform—especially for animation. An exceptional manager who can guide 5–10 creatives, animators, writers, and editors with clarity, kindness, and high standards. You anchor the team through changes, deadlines, and creative challenges. Passionate about turning feedback into fire. You listen to the voice of the audience, mine feedback rigorously, and iterate rapidly to improve storytelling, pacing, and resonance. Obsessed with excellence. You sweat the small stuff, chase down better ways to tell a story, and never settle for just “good enough.” You want to be a business partner, who can earn equity in the brand they lead. Working together to rocket the brand, and even create a geopolitics board game with us, and so much more. Day-to-day responsibilities: Own the creative and strategic direction of the channel—developing compelling stories that drive viewership and deepen our audience’s connection to the brand. Manage the full production pipeline across scripting, storyboarding, animation, and editing—ensuring episodes ship on time and at top quality.

You treat this job like a mission now that geopolitics is more important than ever, to learn about. You’re emotionally invested in growing the viewership, revenue, and impact of the brand.
- You have a natural drive to improve, meet deadlines, and achieve more things in the future as a creative director.
- You are rigorous in collecting feedback from anyone who can give a viewer perspective, and you are excellent at synthesizing these. You understand the voice of our audience and are deeply curious about what makes content resonate or fall flat.
- You have high standards. You work relentlessly with the team to absolutely nail the quality within tight timelines. Example: you are obsessed with fixing a video within a 2-day deadline, so you organize 2 calls with 3 team members to fix the problems live. No back and forth, just dedicated work to fixing and synthesizing 3 different perspectives all at once.
- You combine creative instincts with operational clarity—able to turn ideas into finished work through clear timelines and accountability.
- You’re passionate about finding and developing great talent—and won’t compromise on building a high-performing, motivated team.
- You have experience in animation, storytelling, or adjacent creative roles, ideally with direct exposure to YouTube or digital-first content.

- Beyond leading existing channels, you’ll have the chance to pitch and develop new channels and IPs based on your own interests and creative vision. We encourage entrepreneurial thinking, so if an idea is approved, we’ll work together to bring it to life, with you taking the lead in shaping and executing the concept. As business partners with Telos Media, you’ll have the opportunity to share in the upside through equity or revenue participation, building something that’s as much yours as it is ours.

Senior Copywriter / Ad Creative Strategist (Remote Full Time, 6-10K USD Per Mo)
EP Logistics InternationalGroup of EPH logistics companies operating rail and road transport and freight forwarding services in Central Europe
Are you the type of person who can look at an Ad or a Funnel… and instantly see what the offer is missing? Do you love funnel hacking other people's ads, VSLs, low ticket offers, and enjoy coming up with dangerously unique marketing angles, unique mechanisms, and hooks that scroll stop on ads and make people buy? Do you get excited by the idea of building faceless VSL and low ticket offer funnels where the founder never has to show their face and the ads still print? If yes, keep reading. Because this is not a “write some copy and hop on meetings” role. We’re hiring a Chief Copywriter + Offer Architect to replace our founder Richard as the primary creative engine behind our low-ticket growth machine. Your job is simple to explain, hard to do: Invent winning faceless low-ticket offers, write the VSLs, write the ads, write the sales pages, and make sure this can scale to $1M/month in ad spend on cold META traffic. About Richard Yu Founded in 2019, Richard started as a broke college student at UCLA with student debt, and created a $500 digital product teaching college students how to wake up early and have better habits. That product did over $500,000 USD in less than 8 months because Richard "cracked" the formula for how to sell a digital product online. Later that year, he pivoted into consulting others (personal trainers, doctors, dentists, coaches) on how to scale their info / digital product businesses, and in the last 5 years, this business has now scaled to over $30M in sales, and we have served well over 5,000 clients. Our mission is simple: To help ordinary people (9-5ers, stay at home parents, college students) build extraordinary online businesses and learn high-income skills. And most importantly, we put the client results at the top of our priorities, and do our very best to fulfill on the promises we make to our clients. The core value #1 of our company is: Client Success = Company Success. Over the last few years, we have primarily run our business with the following funnel: Organic content (and paid ads) --> 20 minute VSL funnel --> book a sales call --> talk to closer --> sell a high ticket offer. Now, the company is moving toward a low-ticket, faceless funnel model, so growth is no longer bottlenecked by the founder making content. We help beginners start their own digital product businesses, and we sell low ticket, mid ticket, and high ticket digital products that help them learn how to sell digital products. We currently have a Head of Marketing who owns analytics, performance tracking, and coordination across different deparmtents What we are missing is a Head of Copy / Senior Copywriter, who can replace Richard as the chief copywriter, and come up with all the unique offer angles and ad angles that cut through the noise in this competitive “make money online” landscape. In this role, you would be the creative weapon. The offer brain. The copy brain. The person who invents the product of what gets scaled. What You’ll Be Doing 1) Offer Creation (Faceless-First) - Create new low-ticket offers from scratch (concept → name → mechanism → deliverables) - Name the offer (2–3 words) and the unique mechanism (2–3 words) - Define exactly what’s included so the product + editor/graphic design teams can execute fast - Build offers that are designed to break even or better on cold traffic Performance requirement: Your offers must be able to hold at least a 1.5x ROAS breakeven or higher on cold Meta traffic, with the mid-term goal (less than 3-6 months from today) of scaling to: - $1,000,000+ per month in ad spend - Roughly $30K–$40K/day on Meta. By offers, we define low ticket offers as anything that can be sold on a landing page (with or without VSL), and WITHOUT any type of sales person (no chat sales, no texting sales, no sales calls with a closer/setter on the front end landing page). Your offer must sell like hot cakes on its own, to cold cold cold META traffic. Your offers should have check box order bumps, OTO upsells / downsells, etc. to maximize AOV to get the front end AOV as high as possible. This is not theoretical copy. This is copy built to scale aggressively. 2) VSL Writing (Word-for-Word Scripts) - Write full, word-for-word VSL scripts designed for: - AI avatar VSLs - Actor-read VSLs - Voiceover + b-roll / stock footage - Ensure scripts are production-ready, clean, and conversion-focused - No founder presence required, faceless is the default 3) Ad Angles + Ad Copy (End-to-End) - Create ad concepts, hooks, and angles aligned with each offer - Write complete ad copy for: - Meta ads - YouTube ads - Instagram shoutouts - Any paid traffic channel we deploy - Maintain message-market consistency from ad → VSL → page → checkout 4) Funnel Messaging Ownership - Own the conversion narrative across the entire funnel - Collaborate with the Head of Marketing to iterate based on performance data
