Summary

YouTube Content Manager & Show Producer - Health Practitioner Education Channel Job Title: YouTube Channel Manager & Video Producer Niche: Health & Wellness Practitioner Education (Ongoing, Part-to-Full Time) About This Role I host The Clinical Entrepreneur Show - a YouTube-based educational channel for cash-based, functional, and integrative wellness practitioners. We have 300+ episodes published and are in an active growth phase: new content strategy, new lead generation system, new offers, and a commitment to treating YouTube as the primary distribution engine for everything we do. I need one person to own the channel end-to-end. Not a team of five specialists across five different time zones. One person who understands YouTube, can edit video, knows how to make a channel grow, and can work inside a content ecosystem that includes email marketing, a membership platform, quiz funnels, and a lead magnet system. This role starts part-time with a clear path to full-time as results develop. What You Will Own Video Production & Publishing - Edit weekly full-length episodes (30–60 minutes) from raw Descript files or raw video - Create one YouTube Short per episode (identify the clip, edit to vertical, burn captions, publish within 48 hours of full episode) - Create 2 standalone Shorts per month from direct-to-camera recordings - Publish all content on schedule - same day, every week, without reminders YouTube Channel Management - Write SEO-optimized titles, descriptions, and tags for every video - Design thumbnails in Canva using brand templates (photo assets provided) - A/B test thumbnails on high-performing videos - Build and maintain playlist architecture (8+ topic playlists) - Add end screens, cards, and pinned comments to every video - Post weekly to the YouTube Community tab - Monitor comments and flag anything requiring Ronda's attention - Submit channel for YouTube Partner Program monetization when eligibility is reached Lead Generation & Quiz System - Manage the Practitioner Diagnostic Quiz (built in Typeform) - Monitor quiz completion rates and flag anomalies - Coordinate with email sequences in Kajabi to ensure quiz → tag → sequence pipeline is functioning - Build episode-specific landing pages for downloadable resources (2 per quarter) Email & Funnel Coordination - Load approved email sequences into Kajabi - Test all sequences end-to-end before they go live - Monitor open rates, click rates, and sequence completion - report weekly - Flag underperforming sequences for revision Analytics & Reporting - Pull weekly metrics from YouTube Studio: views, CTR, average view duration, subscriber growth, Shorts performance - Pull weekly metrics from Kajabi: quiz completions, email opt-ins, low-dollar offer sales - Track affiliate link performance from supplement company partners - Deliver a clean one-page weekly report every Monday Affiliate & Sponsorship Coordination - Manage affiliate links for supplement company partners (CellCore, Real Mushrooms, Gaia Herbs, others) - Track conversions and compile monthly revenue reports - Coordinate placement of sponsor mentions in episode descriptions Calendar & Workflow Management - Maintain the content calendar 4–6 weeks ahead at all times - Flag scheduling conflicts or gaps immediately - Keep all assets organized in shared folders (Google Drive or equivalent) You Must Have - Proven YouTube channel growth experience. Not just video editing - actual channel management. Show me channels you've grown. Subscriber count and view trajectory matter. - YouTube SEO fluency. You understand how YouTube search works, what makes a title rank, how thumbnails affect CTR, and what watch time signals matter to the algorithm. - Video editing proficiency. Descript is preferred. Premiere Pro or Final Cut is acceptable. You edit clean, fast, and without needing a second pass. - Canva proficiency. You can work inside a brand template and produce professional thumbnails without starting from scratch every time. - Kajabi experience OR a fast proven ability to learn new platforms. Our membership, email sequences, landing pages, and offers all live in Kajabi. Typeform and Zapier are also in the stack. - Strong written English. You are writing SEO titles, YouTube descriptions, pinned comments, and community posts in the voice of an American clinician. This requires excellent English and the ability to write with personality - not just correctly. - Self-directed work style. I am a busy practitioner. I cannot manage your workflow. You own your tasks, hit your deadlines, and surface problems before they become crises. - Experience with health, wellness, medical, or practitioner-facing content. This is a professional audience. You need to understand the difference between patient-facing content and practitioner-facing content and never confuse the two. Nice to Have - Experience with Typeform and Zapier integrations - Familiarity with YouTube Shorts strategy specifically - Experience managing affiliate tracking and reporting - Basic graphic design skills beyond Canva (for occasional social assets) - Experience with podcast production (this channel recently transitioned from audio podcast to YouTube-only) - Familiarity with the functional/integrative medicine practitioner space What We Are NOT Looking For - A social media manager. This role is YouTube-specific. Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok are not part of this job. - A virtual assistant. This is a content management and production role requiring creative and strategic judgment, not task execution under constant supervision. - An agency or team. I need one person with a complete skill set, not a managed service. - Someone learning YouTube on my channel. You must already know how YouTube growth works. - Someone who needs brand new tools taught from scratch. You'll learn our specific stack, but you must arrive with the underlying skills. Logistics Location: Open to international applicants. Excellent written and spoken English required. Hours: Approximately 15–20 hours/week to start. Growing toward 30+ hours as systems build out. Schedule: Flexible, but you must be available for a weekly 30-minute check-in (US Pacific or Mountain time preferred). Communication: Async-first via Slack or Loom. You send Loom walkthroughs for anything requiring visual explanation. Payment: Fixed weekly rate preferred over hourly. Propose your rate based on scope. How to Apply Do not send a generic proposal. Applications without all four of the following will not be reviewed: 1. Two YouTube channels you've managed - links only, with a brief description of what you did and what results you drove (subscriber growth, view growth, anything measurable) 2. One example of a video thumbnail you created - link or image, with a sentence about the CTR it achieved if you have that data 3. One sentence answering this question: A practitioner who works with functional medicine patients is different from a patient-facing health influencer. What does that mean for how you would write a YouTube title for her channel? (NO AI responses) 4. Your weekly rate for this scope of work and your current availability in hours per week Applications that begin with "Dear Hiring Manager" or describe themselves as "passionate about wellness" will not be read. *The Clinical Entrepreneur Show - youtube.com/@RondaNelson
