Who You Are

We are seeking a highly creative and adaptable Social Media Script Writer who lives and breathes social media. You have a proven track record of writing engaging short-form video scripts that capture attention and drive high engagement on platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. You understand the science behind virality—crafting compelling hooks, storytelling frameworks, keeping scripts concise yet impactful, and delivering content that makes people stop scrolling.

  • Maintain clarity and conciseness, ensuring scripts are easily digestible for broad audiences.

Research & Trend Analysis

  • Stay up to date with trending topics, storytelling frameworks, and viral formats across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

Develop Attention-Grabbing Hooks

  • The hook is the most crucial element—you must master crafting compelling openings that instantly capture attention.
  • Adapt hooks and storytelling techniques based on audience psychology and client needs.

Customize Scripts for Clients

  • Tailor content to a variety of industries, ensuring it aligns with each client’s brand, tone, and audience.
  • Provide verbatim scripts or attention-grabbing hooks with prompts for subject matter experts to deliver naturally.

Revise & Improve Scripts Based on Feedback

  • Be open to 1-2 rounds of revisions per batch (with fewer revisions expected as we develop a working relationship).

What We Value

🔥 Passion for Social Media & Digital Culture

  • You stay ahead of trends, creators, and viral storytelling formats.

🎯 Obsessed with Virality

  • You understand the nuances of what makes content go viral—not just writing for the sake of writing, but crafting content with clear intent.

📝 Exceptional Writing & Storytelling Skills

  • You simplify complex topics, making them easy to understand at an 8th-grade reading level.

🚀 Deadline-Driven & Self-Motivated

  • You thrive in fast-paced environments and deliver high-quality work on time.

📌 Tech-Savvy & Organized

  • Familiarity with tools like Google Workspace, ClickUp, and Slack is a plus.

Requirements

  • Proven experience in social media script writing, with links to examples showcasing your work and its performance.
