Summary

VSL script for a short recruiting video I run a real estate media company and I'm hiring a copywriter to script a recruiting VSL, a short video I'll record myself on camera. The video's job is to attract the right job applicants and screen out the wrong ones before they reach the next step of my hiring process. It's a recruiting angle, not a product sale, so I want a writer who can tell a clear, honest story that ends in one strong call to action. The deliverable - One VSL script, roughly two to three minutes when spoken - A natural, conversational tone in my brand voice (plain, warm, direct, no fluff) - A structure that hooks the right person, sets honest expectations about the role, sells the opportunity and the culture, and drives to a single action at the end What I'll provide - A rough first draft I've already written - Brand voice notes You're welcome to use these as a brief and rebuild the script from scratch. I care about the result, not preserving my words. To be considered, include in your proposal - One or two VSL scripts you've written - A few sentences on how you'd approach a recruiting VSL versus a standard sales VSL - Your turnaround, number of revisions included, and price for a single script - Start your proposal with the word "Action" so I know you read this How I work I'm direct and I give clear feedback fast. I'll run a short paid trial with my top one or two picks, a rewrite of the opening plus notes on the rest, before booking the full script. If it's a fit, there's likely more work down the road.
