Job Description

Cleaned for readability so you can scan the ask faster.

Expert - Est. Budget: $5,000 Only freelancers located in the United States may apply. I’m the founder of PokeMarket, a beta / near-launch Pokémon market intelligence platform - essentially a “Bloomberg Terminal for Pokémon cards.” The product combines market data, analytics, pricing, collection/portfolio tracking, market indexes, a community storefront for easier access to scarce products, and other tools into a highly polished consumer product for collectors and investors. You can see the product here: https://pokemarketcap.com The product is built and ready to start getting in front of real users. We’re currently pre-revenue and essentially starting distribution from zero. With the Pokémon 30th anniversary cycle approaching, I want to move quickly and build real momentum rather than continue quietly polishing the product. I’m looking for a hands-on growth partner or small team who can OWN execution, not just give me a marketing strategy. I am happy to be actively involved as the founder. I can provide product expertise, opinions, creative direction, raw footage, screen recordings, and appear on camera. I already have concepts I want to pursue - for example, a recurring lab-coat series where I break down interesting Pokémon market trends/data. What I do not have is the time or production skill to personally turn every idea into edited videos, graphics, posts, outreach, publishing schedules and growth experiments. That is the gap I want you to fill. Ideally, you/your team can handle: Overall launch/growth strategy and weekly prioritization Short-form video editing and production for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts Turning product data/screens into compelling social content and graphics X/Twitter content and distribution Copywriting, captions, hooks and packaging Publishing/scheduling and account management Organic community distribution where appropriate (Reddit, Discord, collector communities, etc.) Pokémon creator/influencer identification, outreach and collaboration Analytics, attribution and weekly learnings Rapid experimentation to determine which messages/content actually drive signups and returning users The goal is not to outsource my founder voice. It’s to give me resources that can take founder input and turn it into substantially more high-quality output and distribution. This is also not a strategy-only engagement. I don’t need a deck telling me that we should post on TikTok. I need someone who can develop the concept, edit the content, package it, publish it, distribute it, measure it and iterate. Pokémon/TCG/collectibles experience is a major plus, but not mandatory. Strong consumer startup, fintech/market-data, sports, gaming, collectibles or other internet-native consumer experience can also be highly relevant. Taste, speed, creativity and evidence that you’ve actually grown something matter more to me than agency size. I’m initially looking for a concentrated launch engagement rather than committing to a long-term retainer upfront. If we work well together and see traction, I’m very open to continuing and expanding the relationship. When responding, please send me 2–3 examples of consumer brands/products you personally helped grow, examples of short-form/social content your team actually produced, what parts of the above scope you handle in-house, and briefly how you would approach PokeMarket’s first 30 days. Please also mention one specific thing you noticed about PokeMarket after reviewing the product at pokemarketcap.com. Generic proposals that haven't reviewed the product won't be considered.

Hi there, You don't need another growth strategy deck. You need someone who can take your lab-coat series idea and actually ship it this week, not add it to a roadmap. I looked at pokemarketcap.com. The product is polished. The infrastructure is there. What you're missing is the muscle to turn founder energy into distributed content at the pace this moment demands. Pokemon's 30th is a real window, and windows close. I've built ecommerce platforms and marketplaces where conversion was the whole game. For Pink Robin Inc., I built a directory and MVP marketplace on WooCommerce that had to guide browsers through multiple decision points without friction. For McCarthy Lebit, I handled custom post programming and dynamic content that required thinking about how information moves people toward action. Those weren't just technical builds. They were systems designed to convert intent into behavior. What you're describing is a different stack but the same underlying challenge: turning attention into signups, and signups into returning users who care. That requires someone who can move between video editing, copywriting, community distribution, influencer outreach, and analytics without losing the thread. Here's what I'd handle for you: 1. Weekly content production. You record the raw footage or give me screen recordings and concepts. I edit for TikTok, Reels, Shorts. I write the hooks, captions, and packaging. I handle publishing and scheduling across platforms. 2. Community distribution. I identify where Pokemon collectors and investors actually spend time (Reddit, Discord, niche forums) and get PokeMarket in front of them organically, not as spam. 3. Influencer outreach. I research Pokemon creators whose audience matches your user profile, draft personalized outreach, and coordinate collaborations. 4. Analytics and iteration. I track what drives signups, what gets ignored, and adjust weekly based on what's working. This isn't strategy consulting. This is execution. You stay the voice and the vision. I turn that into shipped content and real distribution. What does your current backlog of content ideas look like, and how fast do you want to be publishing once we start? Trust, Tai
