Marketing Specialist

Marketing Director / Agency Founder-in-Training | Coastal Canvas Products | Savannah, GA This isn't a marketing job. It's the beginning of an agency. We're Coastal Canvas Products — a 50-year-old, vertically integrated luxury outdoor architectural systems company based in Savannah. We build and install high-end pergolas, architectural shade systems, motorized screens, and custom fabrication for some of the most exclusive properties on the East Coast. We're not an awning company. We're a craft operation that happens to make things most people have never seen done this well. We're looking for someone who sees this for what it is: a ground-floor opportunity. Here's the vision. You come in, learn our business inside and out, and build our marketing engine from scratch — web, SEO, paid and organic social, video, photo, content, the works. Once we have those systems dialed in, we're going to start bringing other specialty contractors and trade companies into the fold. You'd be running an agency with a built-in anchor client, a repeatable playbook, and the freedom to grow it into something real. What you'll actually be doing: Web design and development, SEO strategy and execution, Google and Meta paid advertising, organic social media across platforms, photo and video content (you don't have to be a cinematographer, but you need to know what good looks like), email marketing, brand positioning, and whatever else it takes to make a company like ours look as good as our work does. What we're not looking for: Someone who needs a manager. Someone who hides behind buzzwords. Someone who outsources their thinking. We want someone who can identify a gap, find the right vendor or specialist to fill it, vet them thoroughly, and get the work done without hand-holding. You're the right person if: You've either run your own thing before or you've been itching to. You're resourceful enough to figure out what you don't know and honest enough to say when you need help. You understand trades, craftsmanship, or luxury markets — or you're the kind of person who gets obsessed with learning a new industry until you own the knowledge. You live in Savannah or you're ready to plant roots here. And you see the long game: building something of your own under the umbrella of a company that's already got the reputation, the clients, and the momentum. What we offer: Let's talk about what this position actually comes with, because it's not a standard package. Your own private 400 square foot office in our Savannah facility — a dedicated space to build from, not a cubicle or a hot desk. High-speed internet, a fully loaded new workstation, and a complete software stack covering everything from creative production to SEO tools to ad management. If you were freelancing or running your own shop, that infrastructure alone would run you $18,000–$22,000 a year in overhead. Here, it's covered on day one. Base salary of $65,000–$75,000, commensurate with your portfolio and what you can demonstrate you've actually done. On top of that, a quarterly performance bonus tied to real metrics — lead volume, traffic growth, cost per lead, campaign performance — with $5,000–$10,000 in annual bonus potential for someone who's hitting their marks. And then there's the part that makes this different from any other offer you'll see: a defined path to agency equity. As we build out the systems for our business and begin bringing other trade companies into the fold, we intend to formalize an agency revenue share or ownership stake for the right person. You won't just be building our marketing — you'll be building the foundation of something you can eventually own a piece of. All-in, this package is valued at $85,000–$100,000+ when you factor in infrastructure, performance upside, and equity path. We're serious about that number because we're serious about finding the right person. If you're reading this and thinking

that's exactly what I've been looking for

, send us your portfolio, your LinkedIn, and a few sentences about why you're the one. "We are committed to formalizing an agency ownership structure for the right candidate within the first 12–24 months. This isn't a vague promise — it's a planned next step in building something we intend to grow together. We'll put it in writing."
