So great to meet you! Here's what I bring to the table: After 10+ years in recruiting and 4 years running my own business, I've learned what founders really need: someone who gets projects done, owns the details, handles light marketing, and makes their vision happen ... without the drama. What I Do: Strategic Execution: I turn your "wouldn't it be cool if..." into "it's done" People & Culture: From hiring your first employee to building teams that actually like Mondays Ghostwriting & Marketing: Your ideas, your voice. I just make them sound like you on your best day Founder Sanity: I handle the chaos so you can focus on what only you can do Real talk: I've been the founder juggling everything. I've been the recruiter finding 'unicorns'. I've been the mom racing to pickup. Now I'm the Partner who brings all that experience to your business: remotely, reliably, and without asking you to explain things twice. I'm building a remote business that allows me to be every founder's secret weapon AND every bus stop regular, so I can be the mom who rarely misses the good stuff while helping others build something amazing. Industries I love: Education, Wine & Spirits, Hospitality, Food & Bev, Marketing Agencies & small, scrappy startups. Currently taking on select Marketing Assistant / Operations roles with founders who: • Value execution over endless meetings • Want a partner, not just an assistant • Believe work-life integration • Have ideas but not enough time to execute them Let's chat if you need marketing support, ops support, help with writing your next LinkedIn post. Recent Recruiting Placements: Administrative Assistant in 14 days for Small Business Owner HR Manager within 30 days for a growing Small Business Executive Assistant within 2 weeks from job post to hire for start-up A brand new AI Implementation Specialist Role within 30 days, 2x! for a start-up Production Coordinator after title and responsibility revision - 6 weeks Placed Reservation Coordinator within 30 days (100% remote role) Here's what a few small business owners have said about my work: “Jenn Cramer’s expertise as an HR Consultant was instrumental in helping us improve our HR processes, employee handbook, and bring in 2 top-notch new hire’s to our team. Her guidance in refining our employee handbook was invaluable, and she was collaborative and easy to work with, providing expert insight into recruiting strategies and candidate status. It was an overall seamless recruiting experience because she was timely and managed the process with me. We are grateful for her support and highly recommend their services to any business looking to elevate their HR practices and attract the best candidates. She is a great HR partner!" -Leon Kramer, LMS Brandz "Jenn is amazing to work with. She is super detailed and project focused. She asks all the right questions to make sure that anyone who needs the answers can easily and efficiently locate them. She has helped us with mapping our SOPs as well as with helping implement them by empowering managers with the tools to follow through. She has been with us through the whole process with a positive and energetic attitude making each step of the otherwise tedious process enjoyable." -Pete, Baroody Camps

Hey! I’m Cam, a native English-speaking writer, editor, and communications strategist who helps people and brands communicate online with clearly, consistency, and personality. I focus on social media content creation and management, editing, and copywriting. From captions and campaigns to longer-form posts brand messaging, and blogs, I help shape content that sounds human and aligned with your voice, truly connecting with the audiences you’re trying to reach. I work both AI-assisted and AI-free. I build smart editorial workflows when speed and scale matter, and I write and edit everything myself when nuance really counts. Either way, the output stays human, intentional, and on-brand. I’ve worked with NGOs, B2B brands, sustainability organizations, cultural institutions, and creative entrepreneurs, managing and producing social content across platforms while adapting tone, format, and messaging to different audiences and goals. What I’m great at: ✓ Social media content creation and editing (posts, captions, campaigns) ✓ Social media management and content planning ✓ Copywriting with voice, clarity, and purpose ✓ Tight, thoughtful editing (flow, tone, consistency) ✓ Adapting content to different platforms and audiences ✓ Collaborative, calm, no-ego ways of working Things I love working on: - Social media calendars and ongoing content management - Writing and editing posts that spark engagement and conversation - Campaign copy and messaging frameworks - Communications strategies - Editing and copy editing for purpose-driven projects - Repurposing long-form content into strong social posts - Helping brands sound consistent across channels I work best on: - Purpose-led businesses and ethical brands - NGOs and education organisations - Creative projects and community initiatives - Teams that value clarity, care, and good communication - People who want social media to feel human and not forced If you care about good writing, clear messaging, and content that doesn’t feel robotic or exhausting, we’ll probably work well together! Looking forward to hearing from you. :)
