Campus Marketing Manager — Founding Campus Team

Location: University of Iowa — Iowa City, Iowa

Positions Available: Hiring 2–3 students

Start Date: Mid-August 2026

Term: Fall 2026 semester

Help Build LIVEY’s University of Iowa Launch

LIVEY is a new video-first dating app designed to replace endless swiping with real face-to-face conversations.

The idea behind LIVEY is simple:

Modern dating apps have failed many of the people they were supposed to help.

They encourage people to spend more time looking at profiles, judging photos, collecting matches, and sending messages that often go nowhere.

LIVEY was created to help people actually meet.

Users connect through short, live video speed dates, talk face-to-face, and then decide whether they want to match.

The University of Iowa will be one of the first major campuses where LIVEY builds a dedicated student-led marketing strategy.

We are hiring 2–3 Campus Marketing Managers who want to help shape that strategy from the beginning.

THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO BE TOLD EXACTLY WHAT TO DO.

We are not hiring students to simply complete a checklist.

We are hiring students to think, create, test, learn, and lead.

You will have the freedom to decide how LIVEY should be introduced to the University of Iowa.

You will work directly with the founder, receive guidance and mentorship, and have access to company resources—but the campus strategy will largely be yours to build.

You may decide that Greek life is the best entry point.

You may believe student organizations, residence halls, creators, local businesses, professors, or launch events are more effective.

You may develop an idea no one at LIVEY has considered.

That is exactly what we want.

If you bring forward a strong idea, it will not disappear into a corporate approval process. We may move from idea to execution within the same week.

Your Mission

How do we make LIVEY feel relevant to Iowa students?

What would make students curious enough to try it?

How do we build trust around a brand-new dating app?

Which groups on campus can help us spread the word?

What kind of competition or event would generate real participation?

How do we create a launch that people remember?

Examples of What You Could Do
Your strategy may include:

Running Greek life competitions

Partnering with residence halls

Building relationships with campus leaders

Setting up booths at university or community events

Distributing flyers, QR codes, and branded materials

Developing events designed around live dating

Working with local Iowa City businesses

Collaborating with student media

Reaching out to professors in marketing, entrepreneurship, analytics, technology, psychology, sociology, or business

Helping professors use LIVEY as a classroom case study or semester project

Connecting with student consulting groups or university programs

Gathering feedback directly from students

Creating new ideas based on what makes the University of Iowa unique

You will not be limited to these ideas.

We want you to use your creativity.

This role is designed to give students meaningful experience—not just a line on a résumé.

You will learn about:

Startup marketing

User acquisition

Referral marketing

Community building

Event marketing

Measuring campaign performance

Working with a founder

Turning ideas into execution

Using feedback to improve both marketing and product decisions

Using AI to challenge assumptions and strengthen strategy

LIVEY is an AI-first company.

We use AI throughout planning, product development, campaign design, research, messaging, and decision-making.

You will learn how to combine AI with human creativity, local knowledge, communication, and leadership.

Who Should Apply
This may be a strong fit if you are:

Interested in marketing, startups, entrepreneurship, technology, or dating culture

Creative

Connected to campus life

Comfortable talking with students and organizations

Excited to take ownership

Willing to experiment

Able to work without being micromanaged

Interested in building something new

Motivated by real responsibility

Passionate about helping people form real connections

Formal marketing experience is not required.

We are more interested in how you think, what you care about, and whether you can turn ideas into action.

Compensation and Benefits

A small stipend

Performance-based commission tied to verified users

Bonuses for successful campus events and campaigns

LIVEY Premium for life

Direct mentorship from the founder

A professional reference

Hands-on startup experience

Priority consideration for future paid opportunities

The chance to influence LIVEY’s long-term national campus strategy

LIVEY will cover approved campaign costs, including promotional materials, event expenses, branded merchandise, printing, and other resources needed to execute approved ideas.

Successful Campus Marketing Managers may be considered for future regional or national marketing opportunities as LIVEY expands.

The people who help LIVEY understand how to succeed at its first universities may become the people who help lead its next stage of growth.

Why This Opportunity Is Different
This is one of LIVEY’s first meaningful introductions to a college campus.

You will not be joining after the strategy has already been figured out.

You will help figure it out.

You will have the ability to influence how the company markets, how the product improves, how future campus teams operate, and how LIVEY eventually expands nationwide.

If you want a predictable role with a detailed list of assignments, this is probably not the right opportunity.

If you want to build, experiment, learn, and help create something from the beginning, we want to meet you.
