The assignment
These two businesses, Happyforms and The Theme Foundry, are ready for a change. They are well-designed and well-loved products, but they’ve stagnated over the past two years. Both have the potential to grow if hard work and common sense is applied. These businesses are simple to manage in their current state (maintenance updates and customer support), so for someone like you, this will be the easy part. The fun part will be building and executing a plan to grow.
The skills
- You must have a strong desire to take ownership and get things done at an unreasonably fast pace.
- You must be persistent and curious.
- You must be detailed, efficient, and process orientated.
- You must be a go-getter that loves hard work and takes ownership. No job is too small. You do it all.
- You must thrive on autonomy and decision making.
- You must be a great writer and a great communicator.
- Ideally, you’re a seasoned WordPress developer (PHP, HTML/CSS, WordPress) with design sensibilities and a business mindset. If you aren’t a developer, present a plan for how you’ll fill that gap.
You’ll be responsible for managing both of these businesses in their entirety. You’ll handle customer support, fix bugs, add new features, and run the marketing. You’ll be responsible for planning your own work and schedule. We care about what you get done, not when you do it.
The pay
The annual salary is $30,000 USD with a profit share on any new profit growth you create. You’re ready to hustle and grow a business while participating in the upside.
This is a 100% remote. Live anywhere.
How to apply
Write a well-written letter explaining clearly why you are the best person for this job. We don’t ChatGPT and we don’t want boilerplate. We want unique and clear. Why are you excited for this opportunity? Take some time to research these businesses. Do something that stands out.
Send your letter to jobs [at] thethemefoundry.com.
