Summary

YouTube Growth Strategist Needed (Long-Term Opportunity) About Me My content focuses on tax preparation, tax software, starting a tax business, and helping entrepreneurs create additional income through the tax industry. I’m only a few hundred subscribers away from reaching 10,000 YouTube subscribers, and I’m ready to invest in someone who truly understands YouTube growth. I’m looking for someone who will take the time to understand my brand, my audience, and my long-term vision. This isn’t an editor job posting. Not looking for a video editor. Position Type Part-Time Contract (Approximately 10–20 hours per week) The initial contract will be for 2 months. During that time, I’ll be looking at communication, strategy, execution, and most importantly, measurable growth. If we’re a great fit, I’d like this to become a long-term partnership. What I’m Looking For I’m looking for a YouTube expert who understands what actually grows channels. I don’t expect overnight success, but I do expect someone who is constantly testing, analyzing, improving, and bringing new ideas backed by data. Responsibilities include: * Perform a complete audit of my YouTube channel. * Develop a growth strategy specific to my niche. * Research high-performing topics and video ideas. * Optimize every video’s SEO (titles, descriptions, keywords, tags, and metadata). * Create or direct high-converting thumbnail strategies. * Run A/B tests on thumbnails and titles. * Analyze click-through rate (CTR), audience retention, watch time, and overall channel performance. * Recommend improvements based on YouTube Analytics. * Help increase engagement through comments, community posts, and audience interaction strategies. * Stay updated on YouTube algorithm changes and recommend adjustments as needed. * Meet with me regularly to review analytics and discuss next steps. My Goal I’m looking for someone who treats my YouTube channel like a business, not just another social media account. I want someone who enjoys looking at data, identifying what’s working, figuring out what’s not, and making strategic decisions that lead to consistent growth. The goal isn’t simply to gain subscribers it’s to build an engaged audience that watches, trusts, and returns for future content. The Type of Person I’m Looking For * 3+ years of YouTube growth experience. * Proven track record of helping channels grow. * Strong understanding of YouTube SEO. * Experience improving CTR, audience retention, and watch time. * Comfortable reading YouTube Analytics and making data-driven decisions. * Excellent communicator. * Organized and proactive. * Passionate about YouTube and creator growth. Bonus Skills Experience working with educational, finance, tax, business, or entrepreneurship creators is a plus. To Apply Please include: 1. Your portfolio or channels you’ve helped grow. 2. Before-and-after results or case studies. 3. A brief overview of your YouTube growth strategy. 4. The analytics or metrics you focus on most when growing a channel. 5. A short Loom video introducing yourself and explaining why you’re a good fit for this role. I’m looking for someone who wants to build something long-term not someone who simply checks tasks off a list. If you’re passionate about YouTube growth and love using data to help channels succeed, I’d love to hear from you.
