The Direct Response Copywriter will craft compelling, persuasive copy that drives engagement and results across email campaigns, sales pages, and advertising content. Responsibilities include writing, editing, and collaborating with marketing teams to ensure alignment with objectives, and continuously refining content to optimize performance and ROI. This is not a proofreading or grammar‑focused position; it is a marketing position, and we need a writer who understands direct‑response marketing.

We need adirect response copywriter who owns all the words.

Not “contributes.”

Not “supports.”

Owns.

If it converts, it’s yours.

If it doesn’t, it’s yours too.

You’ll be shaping how older Americans make one of the biggest financial and healthcare decisions of their lives. No pressure. (Okay, some pressure.) What you’ll actually do? You’ll be responsible for end‑to‑end direct response copy, including:

High‑converting landing pages and website copy

Static ad copy (Meta, YouTube, display, advertorials, blog posts)

Video ad scripts (short‑form + long‑form)

Email campaigns (nurture, broadcast, transactional, retention)

SMS / text campaigns that don’t feel spammy

Direct mail copy (letters, postcards, inserts)

Campaign concepts, hooks, angles, and offers

You won’t just “write copy.” You’ll think infunnels, intent, objections, and timing.

You’ll constantly ask:

Where is this person mentally right now?

What are they afraid of?

What mistake are they about to make?

What would finally make them say, “Okay... I should look at this.”

What success looks like After 30 days:

You understand our audience better than most of the company

You’re shipping copy weekly

You’re rewriting things that clearly aren’t pulling their weight

After 90 days:

You’re leading campaigns, not waiting for instructions

You’re proactively testing new angles and offers

Dialed into metrics and KPIs and A/B testing to make incremental improvements

After 6–12 months:

Our messaging feels tighter, sharper, and more human

Conversion rates are up

Fewer words. More results.

Who this role is for? This is for you if:

You’re a direct response copywriter, not a brand poet

You care more about conversions than cleverness

You can write simply for older Americans without sounding condescending

You understand sales psychology (fear, urgency, trust, relief, status)

You like owning outcomes, not hiding behind committees

You can take feedback without spiraling

You’re comfortable being wrong, fast

Bonus points if you’ve written for:

Financial services

Insurance

Healthcare

Regulated industries

High‑volume lead gen

Extra bonus if you’ve worked alongside media buyers or sales teams and get how the whole machine works.

Who this is NOT for? This is not for you if:

You need weeks to “find the voice”

You hate data, feedback, or accountability

You only write long essays and hate ads

You want a slow, polished, brand‑first environment

You get defensive when something doesn’t convert

We move fast. We test. We fix it. How we work:

Hybrid in office / remote

High autonomy

Clear expectations

Direct feedback

No corporate nonsense or “waiting”

Real responsibility

You’ll work closely with:

The founder

Head of Marketing

Media buyers

Sales leadership

Your words will directly affect revenue. That’s the job.

Compensation

Competitive base (based on experience)

Performance upside for the right person

Bonus for your application:

A short note explaining why this role fits you

Samples of direct response work (landing pages, ads, emails, scripts)

If you want to stand out: rewrite one of our pages or ads in your own way

No long cover letters.

No fluff.

Just convince us you can do the job.

401(k) matching

Dental insurance

Health insurance

Paid time off

Vision insurance
