About this Opportunity
We're Not Hiring Marketers. We're Looking for Believers.
Location: Remote (Anywhere in the world)
Compensation: Equity stake in Eintercon
Commitment: 10-15 hours/week
Duration: Minimum 6 months
The Reality
Let me be straight with you: We can't pay you right now. We're a one-month-old startup with 200 users, zero funding, and a founder who's still a student in Ghana splitting time between classes and building.
But here's what we can offer: Equity in something that actually matters.
What Is Eintercon?
We're building a friendship platform that connects people across borders through shared passions. When you match with someone, you have 48 hours to see if the connection is real. Either it sparks, or you both move on.
Why it exists: Because I got tired of watching the world tear itself apart on Twitter one night and decided someone needed to take the first step toward fixing it.
The mission: Prove that you can't hate someone whose story you know. Build genuine connections across borders. Show that peace is built one friendship at a time.
Current traction: 200 users in 30 days with zero marketing budget. People are making their first real friends in years. It's working.
What We Need
We need people who can help us reach the communities that need this most:
Turn user success stories into compelling content
Create social media posts that don't feel like ads
Write threads, blog posts, and articles that make people feel something
Document the cross-cultural friendships forming on our platform
Grow our presence on Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn
Engage authentically with communities (not spam, actual conversation)
Build relationships with micro-influencers who align with our mission
Create viral moments that introduce people to Eintercon organically
Find and engage with online communities that would benefit from Eintercon
Partner with student organizations, expat groups, hobby communities
Moderate our own community spaces
Turn users into advocates
Launch us on Product Hunt, Hacker News, BetaList
Get press coverage (TechCrunch, The Verge, etc.)
Find creative distribution channels we haven't thought of
Run experiments and measure what works
Who You Are
You're NOT a traditional marketer. You probably don't have "5+ years of B2C SaaS growth marketing experience." That's fine. We don't want that.
You ARE someone who:
Believes the world needs more genuine connection, not more followers
Can tell stories that make people stop scrolling and think "whoa"
Understands emotional marketing better than growth hacking formulas
Is tired of working on products that don't matter
Wants equity in something with a mission, not just an exit
Can work autonomously (I'm building the product; you own marketing)
Is okay with scrappy—we're bootstrapped and figuring it out as we go
Bonus points if you:
Have personal experience with loneliness or friendship struggles (most of us do)
Have lived internationally or value cross-cultural connection
Have built something from zero before
Are good at writing (storytelling is our biggest asset)
Have a following in relevant communities already
What You'll Get
0.5% - 2% equity stake depending on experience, commitment, and impact
Vesting over 2 years with 6-month cliff
Standard startup equity agreement (we'll do this properly)
You'll own marketing completely. I trust you to figure out what works.
Direct access to founder (me). No layers of bureaucracy.
Freedom to experiment and try things that might fail
Help 200 users become 10,000 users become 100,000 users
Watch real friendships form because of your work
Build something that might actually make the world less divided
Portfolio piece that shows you can take something from 0 to meaningful
Experience building a brand from scratch
Skills in storytelling, community building, growth marketing
Reference from founder for future opportunities
Network with other early team members
