**Looking for a smart, honest PPC consultant** I run an online course and coaching business serving U.S. small business owners across several niches, and I'm looking for a really sharp PPC consultant to think through paid ads strategy with me — Google, Meta, YouTube, and possibly others. I have some digital marketing experience and a lot of ideas. What I need is someone smart enough to push back on me, friendly enough that we enjoy our calls together, and honest enough to tell me when I'm wrong. **The work, in two phases:** First, consulting conversations. I walk you through my situation, you advise, we make decisions together, and you help me get initial campaigns set up the right way — testing, analytics, tracking, sales funnel integration, smart use of AI and automation. Later, if we click, ongoing campaign consulting, which can evolve as our relationship grows. **You're probably a fit if:** - You go deep on Google, Meta, and YouTube ads and you stay current (I want to maximize our use of current best practices now in 2026, and onward) - You enjoy strategy conversations and also executing them - You're responsive and reliable — you follow up without being chased - You've marketed courses, coaching, or consulting offers to U.S. SMB audiences - You think about ads as part of a funnel, not as isolated campaigns - You're intellectually honest (will help me figure out what actually makes the most sense, instead of just telling me what you think I want to hear or what is easiest to say) **You're not a fit if:** - You're an agency (I'm only hiring an individual) - You only want to run a generic PPC playbook or a one-size-fits all campaign management gig - You're hard to reach or not committed to following up If you think this is a good fit for you, please tell me about similar projects you've done and the results, your approach, and how you think we could work together. Thanks!

NO FACELESS YOUTUBE EDITING OR AI! WE ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO EDIT REAL PEOPLE. I’m looking for a skilled YouTube editor who understands more than just cutting clips — I need someone who knows how to edit for retention, engagement, and real subscriber growth. This role is for someone who can help my videos gain authentic viewers, real subscribers, meaningful comments, likes, and shares through smart editing and YouTube-first strategy (no bots, no fake engagement). What You’ll Do: • Edit long-form and/or short-form YouTube videos for maximum watch time • Add clean graphics, subtitles, sound effects, and zooms where appropriate • Optimize videos for viewer retention and algorithm performance • Collaborate on thumbnails, titles, and overall video structure • Understand YouTube trends and how to turn content into shareable moments We would be looking for something that’s a mix of these videos actually. Cinematic but also blends in our talking and fun moments into it. A video that feels fun yet nostalgic. But the video is shot in DLOG. So it will need Luts/color grading applied. Please share links of channels that you have edited videos on. Thank you.

I’m developing a new concept media company focused on an interactive, personality-based sports network. I need a short, professional concept teaser to showcase the vision and potential of the network to a small group of strategic partners and advisors. This initial version is intended as a pitch asset. If the project moves forward, there may be an opportunity to expand it into a more polished, commercially released version in the future. Project Details: Runtime: Approximately 75–90 seconds I have a script ready, but I’m open to collaboration and input on how to strengthen the pacing, visuals, and overall impact. I’m flexible on the approach and open to: Motion graphics / animatic style AI-generated video Animation or claymation (especially if including bookend scenes) I’m open to including bookend scenes or going with a simpler structure, depending on creative ideas and cost. Strong storytelling, clean visuals, and good sound design are important. Important: Capture the right tone — sharp, confident, and slightly edgy. Think “We give you the edge, with an edge.” Avoid anything that feels generic or overly corporate. What I’m Looking For: Experience creating sizzle reels, concept videos, or animatics Skills in motion graphics and/or AI video generation Strong storytelling and attention to detail Good communication and ability to collaborate Deliverables: Final video file in MP4 format (1080p or 4K) Raw project files (so edits can be made later if needed) Up to 2 rounds of revisions Budget: My rough budget for this project is in the $1,000 – $2,000 range, depending on whether bookends are included and the overall approach. Please apply with: A short note explaining why you’re a good fit for this project Links to 2–3 examples of relevant work (sizzle reels, concept videos, motion graphics, or AI-generated videos) Your availability Looking forward to seeing your work.

SEO RECOVERY SPECIALIST WANTED – US BASED ONLY Read This Before Applying If you’re an SEO “expert” who sells backlinks, runs automated reports, outsources work overseas, or believes SEO consists of publishing a few blog posts every month, do not apply. If your strategy is PPC, Google Ads, AI-generated content, generic SEO packages, or monthly ranking reports with little accountability, do not apply. We are looking for a legitimate SEO professional with a proven track record of recovering rankings, increasing organic traffic, and dominating competitive local search markets. The Situation We operate a well-established healthcare company with a significant online presence and a long history of strong organic rankings.

We are looking for someone who can quickly identify what was changed, determine what caused the decline, and implement a strategy to restore and improve our rankings.

What We Are NOT Looking For * Agencies * White-label SEO providers * Overseas teams * Junior SEO consultants * Virtual assistants * Link-building vendors * PPC specialists * Social media marketers * Generic content writers * Anyone learning SEO on our dime Our Goal Our goal is simple: Dominate organic search. We want to rank #1 for our most important keywords and local markets. We are willing to invest in the right person, but we expect expertise, accountability, communication, and execution. Required With Your Application Provide: 1. Three examples of websites you personally helped recover after significant ranking losses. 2. The cause of the ranking issue. 3. What you did to fix it. 4. The measurable results achieved. 5. Your location within the United States. 6. Your favorite SEO tool and why. 7. A brief explanation of the biggest SEO mistake you see businesses make today. Final Note We know enough about SEO to recognize the difference between real expertise and recycled marketing jargon. If your proposal contains buzzwords, generic promises, or copy-and-paste agency language, it will be rejected immediately. We’re looking for a professional who can diagnose problems, create a recovery strategy, execute at a high level, and produce results. If that sounds like you, apply.
