Personal Brand Strategist & Content Manager To Help Build and Scale Personal Brand

Posted 2 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm looking for a creative, strategic, and highly proactive person to help me build a personal brand from the ground up. This is not a typical social media manager role. I'm not looking for someone who simply edits videos, schedules posts, or follows trends. I'm looking for someone who can help me figure out what my personal brand should become, what type of audience I should attract, and how to create content that people genuinely want to follow. About Me I'm an entrepreneur currently building and operating multiple businesses, with plans to continue launching, acquiring, and investing in companies throughout my career. One of my current businesses is a marketing agency, but I don't want my personal brand to become another "marketing tips" account. My vision is much bigger than that. I want to document the process of building businesses, pursuing opportunities, learning new skills, traveling, meeting interesting people, exploring hobbies, and creating a life that's worth following. I want my content to feel more like an entrepreneur's vlog than a traditional business account. The challenge is that I'm still early in that journey. While I'm ambitious and actively building, I don't believe my life is currently as interesting as where I want it to be in the future. That's why I'm looking for someone who can help identify opportunities, experiences, projects, storylines, and content angles that make both my life and content more compelling. The Goal My goal is to build a recognizable personal brand and grow to at least 10,000 followers by the end of 2026 across Instagram and TikTok while developing an audience that genuinely connects with the journey. I care far more about building the right audience than simply chasing views. I want people to follow because they connect with the story, personality, ambitions, lifestyle, successes, failures, and experiences being shared. What I'm Looking For I need someone who can help answer questions like: What should my content pillars be? What makes me different from other entrepreneurs? What parts of my life should I document? What audience should I be building? What content would actually be interesting to watch? What experiences, challenges, projects, or opportunities should I pursue to create better content? How do we turn everyday activities into engaging stories? I'm looking for someone who can think strategically about the brand as a whole, not just the content itself. Responsibilities Help define and develop my personal brand Create a content strategy across Instagram, TikTok, and eventually YouTube Identify content pillars and audience interests Research trends, creators, and successful entrepreneur brands Develop content calendars and posting schedules Brainstorm content ideas, hooks, and recurring content series Assist with content planning, scripting, and storytelling Edit short-form content for Instagram Reels and TikTok Repurpose content across multiple platforms Identify opportunities to capture content throughout my daily life Analyze performance and continuously improve content strategy Provide honest feedback on what is and isn't working Ideal Candidate You are someone who thinks like a strategist and producer, not just an editor. You understand how to build a personal brand around a person, not just around a business. You know how to find stories in everyday life and turn them into engaging content. You are comfortable challenging ideas, providing feedback, and helping shape the direction of the brand. Bonus Points If You Have helped build a personal brand from an early stage Have experience working with entrepreneurs, founders, creators, or YouTubers Understand YouTube-style storytelling and audience retention Have personally grown social media accounts Have experience documenting lifestyle, business, travel, fitness, or entrepreneurship content Think beyond content and can help create opportunities that make the content more interesting Have examples of accounts you've helped grow significantly Success Metrics Success will be measured by: Consistent content output Audience growth Engagement quality Development of a recognizable personal brand Progress toward reaching 10,000 followers by the end of 2026 Building an audience that genuinely resonates with the content and journey To Apply Please send: Your portfolio and examples of work Personal brands, creators, or businesses you've worked with Social media accounts you've helped grow A brief explanation of how you would approach building my personal brand Your monthly rate or hourly rate Why you believe you'd be a good fit for this role Most importantly, tell me what you think is missing from my current approach and how you would help make the content more interesting. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who wants to help build a meaningful personal brand from the ground up and grow alongside it.
