What to expect

πŸ“ Responsibilities β†’ Primarily, to write blog posts, at least 2-4 a month.

πŸ§‘β€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘ Our team β†’ We’re a full time team of ~10 people. You’ll work closely with Molly who leads content at Memberstack.

πŸ₯ž Our stack β†’ Webflow, Notion, Google docs (Experience with Webflow is a must).

πŸ‘‹ Week one β†’ Let’s start by writing our first blog post together! During the first week, you’ll have a chance to meet Molly and Shubham (head of growth), review our content strategy/roadmap, set up a simple process for turning requirements into finished posts, and start creating! Our primary goal is for you to feel comfortable and in control. By the end of week 1, you’ll feel confident with our strategy and understand what Memberstack is. We’ll spend quite a bit of time discussing target personas as well. After all, they are the people we are writing for so it’s crucial you have a solid understanding of who they are and what they want.

🌱 Month one β†’ Establish a system for researching, proposing, and creating blog posts for our new blog. Our primary goal is to provide everything you need to do your best work.

Long term β†’ Let’s have some fun! Memberstack is a young company with lots of opportunities for experimentation. Let’s work together to create a written style that we’re excited by. Our primary goal is to create something we’re proud of and essentially to create content our personas love and get a lot of value from. We want to be the number 1 blog people read to learn about memberships, subscriptions, authentication and payments.
