Video Scriptwriter for B2B SaaS Launches & YouTube

Posted last month

Worldwide

Summary

TL;DR: We make video for tech startups and need a scriptwriter who can make enterprise software sound genuinely interesting. WHAT WE DO Represent Studio creates product launch videos and runs YouTube channels for software companies (YC startups, Dataiku, Bardeen). Our video formats: - Product launch videos (live action + motion graphics) - YouTube channels for tech founders - Educational content that doesn't make viewers fall asleep THE ROLE We're not just looking for a scriptwriter — we're looking for someone with a viral content mindset applied to B2B video. Most video scripts for B2B software are boring as hell. Yours won't be. You know what makes people stop, watch, and share — and you'll bring that to every launch, explainer and tutorial. You won't be making TikToks. You'll write video scripts that use the same principles: grab attention in 3 seconds, hold it to the end, make it worth sharing. We need someone who hates corporate videos and elevator music, because that stuff is intellectually lazy. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Write hooks that scroll-stop in the first 3 seconds - Craft scripts optimized for retention - Go 10 layers deep into products — you'll actually use our clients' software - Think visually — storyboards, transitions, pacing MUST-HAVES - 3+ years writing content that people actually engage with - You understand viral mechanics — why some content blows up and some gets 47 views - AI is embedded in your workflow (research, drafting, iteration) — not just "I've used ChatGPT" - Fast, without the quality dropping BONUS POINTS - Video production experience (editing, directing, or serious time on set) - Written for founders or personal brands - Analytics fluency WORKING TOGETHER Project-based to start ($500-750 per script depending on complexity). Prove your value, grow into our go-to storyteller. Can evolve into full-time. Learn more: https://www.representstudio.com/careers/scriptwriter TO APPLY 1. Make the first sentence of your application a genuine hook. That's a test. 2. Send links to video content you've created with real traction (views, shares, engagement) — NOT blog articles or SEO content. 3. Tell me your favorite topics to write about. Applications without video work samples will be skipped.
