Happen To Your Career

At Happen to Your Career we are a small, rapidly growing, company that believes in doing work you love and doing work in your strengths. We value unconventional results, using your strengths to succeed and to help our company grow in order to be able to help as many people as we possibly can.

Your primary role is to help us achieve explosive growth each year (for the purpose of helping even more people get to their own version of fulfilling work). Specifically, this means your mission over the next 12 months would be reaching enough people and building relationships with enough people to go from our current rate of 50% growth to 100%+ growth, year over year.

💪🏻 Signature Strengths – We do what we are the best at and use our uniqueness and what we enjoy doing, we enable everyone around us do the same

❤️ It’s Personal – We want every single touch to feel like we care – because we do!

🏄🏻‍♂️ One Life – We go for what scares us; we intentionally get outside our comfort zones and push ourselves and everyone we interact with for growth

🛠️ Leverage – We use technology and systems to do anything that a human doesn’t need to

🤗 Give Pareto a hug – we fail often and fast and make mistakes early and are transparent about them. We remove what isn’t working and relentlessly seek out and prioritize the top 4% of what works; We call this out every opportunity!

Being a leader and an executor simultaneously is something you enjoy immensely, especially when you have the freedom to decide how it’s done.
  • Knows what the backend of a WordPress site looks like, when I say trade out the images on the About page or replace the Payment links on the sales page it doesn’t faze you, you either already know what it is or you are confident you can figure it out.

  • You can’t help making things better: Continuous improvement is just a way of life for you. This includes making yourself better.
  • Loves the data in marketing: In fact you’ve probably talked to someone about one of these in the last 24 hours. You can’t help it, it’s cool. Let your Nerd Flag fly.
  • You don’t have to google SEO or SEM or CPM or TACOCAT spelled forward or backward (that last one is just for fun): You do understand SEO in content marketing and have used it (with the URLs and data to prove it).
  • Understands Direct Response Copywriting: You have a proven ability to get people to take action through content. You enjoy the challenge of helping people move to action with words and visuals. (We will look for examples of this.)
  • You find solutions: You can’t help it, when something goes wrong you have a “I will figure this out and make it happen” mentality about you.

  • You’ve used scrum, kaizen, or agile work methodologies. (We use these for helping our clients progress and for our own company work)

This is a 100% remote work project position. The only exception to this is when we get the entire team together a few times each year (usually 2-3, partially because we actually like each other and partially because it’s important to do certain types of work in person.
