Stage Two's blog

Things are hipping and hopping (you know, like the kids say) here at Stage Two, and we need to bolster up the team with some fresh meat talent.  We are looking for one “associate” (read: fairly junior person with a bit of marketing experience and/or a great degree) and one “intern” (read: really junior person willing to do just about anything to learn the wise ways of influencer marketing).

This is a fun industry, and this is a chance to get involved with a lot of very exciting projects and learn a LOT in the process! We’re a young and energetic group of professionals who know how to maintain a proper work/life balance – whether it’s ending the day early to catch a Giants game, or drinking beers and watching movies on our rooftop patio (which we have never, ever done, but still dream about doing one day).

Qualifications (for both)

• Able to work within dynamic start-up environment
• Fast learner and self-starting with impeccable organizational skills
• Extremely strong communications skills, especially written
• Good understanding of consumer technology (video, mobile, etc) with a genuine interest in new trends in tech, media, and culture
• Good understanding of new media, including bloggers and social networks (e.g. you use Facebook because MySpace is soooo 2006)
• Confident and articulate, yet brilliantly creative
• Brownie points to gamers, bloggers, torrentfreaks, pop culture geeks (extra bonus points if you can source the quote: “her?”)

Responsibilities (intern):

• Work hard, play ball, listen, and learn
• Be professional, all the time
• The rest will be determined and crafted around the individual

Responsibilities (marketing associate):

• See above, and…
• Coordinating media lists and event logistics
• Monitoring client and industry press coverage
• Conceive, develop, and implement influencer marketing strategies for clients
• Build relationships with key bloggers, industry influencers, press/media, analysts, and potential marketing partners
• Participating in at least two foosball matches per week (80% of the job)

Our office is in North Beach, close to several MUNI stops, great restaurants/bars, and fine entertainment establishments. Compensation is determined on your level of experience and/or moxie.

If you’re interested, e-mail us:

1. a resume
2. a short bio
3. your salary requirements
4. why you think this is a good fit for you
5. your favorite blog? Be honest – we don’t mind that you check out Perez or TMZ.com, but we hope it’s not all you read!

Any emails without all 5 of the above will be ignored, and probably marked as spam.  Feel free to let us know if you have any questions. Otherwise, we look forward to hearing from you.
