🔴 About Us We are a fast-scaling performance-driven growth agency producing high-converting Video Sales Letters (VSLs) and UGC-style ads.

Edit & Deliver: Turn raw footage into high-converting ads following clear briefs within a 48-hour turnaround. 3. Get Paid & Level Up: You earn fixed rates per approved video. As your total approved output grows, your Tier Multiplier increases (up to 1.15×), along with perks like early access to heavy VSL briefs and monthly performance bonuses! 🟢 Compensation & Tier Structure 💰 Base Rates (Per Approved Video): - Short Ad Cuts / UGC-Style Shorts (up to 60s): 20 EUR - Short Ad Cuts / UGC-Style Shorts (up to 120s): 25 EUR - Long VSL / Advertorial (Subtitles only): 20 EUR - Heavy VSL / Complex Edits (3–10 min, Motion Graphics/AI/Heavy VFX): 60 EUR - Winner Re-cuts / Minor Revisions: 10 EUR 🚀 Tier Multipliers & Growth Ladder: - Editor (0-49 videos): Standard Rate (1.00×) - Senior Editor (50-149 videos): 1.05× Multiplier + 2hr early access to new briefs - Elite Editor (150-399 videos): 1.10× Multiplier + Hold up to 3 videos at once - Partner Editor (400+ videos): 1.15× Multiplier + First pick on high-ticket VSL briefs (60 base) 🏆 Monthly Bonuses: - Best Ad of the Month (150 EUR ): Awarded to the editor who cuts the top-performing ad based on real client ad spend data! 🧠 Requirements: - 3+ years of experience in Direct Response Video Editing (VSLs, UGC ads, Meta/TikTok/YouTube performance creatives). - Mastery in visual hooks, pattern interrupts, retention-focused pacing, captions, visual effects, sound design, and motion graphics. - Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, or DaVinci Resolve. - High accountability: You manage your own workload on ClickUp and deliver within strict 48-hour deadlines. 💬 How to Apply — Practice Task To be considered, please complete the following alongside your application: 1️⃣.Link your portfolio — share 2-3 examples of direct response video work (VSLs, UGC ads, or social media ads). Explain briefly what the goal of each piece was. 2️⃣ Answer these two questions in your proposal: 1. What makes a direct response ad actually convert from an editor's perspective? 2. Describe your typical editing workflow from receiving a brief to final delivery. 3️⃣ Complete a short practice edit Applications that skip the questions or send a generic proposal will not be reviewed. We're looking for someone who takes this seriously — because if this is the right fit, it's a long-term role with real growth.
