We’re looking for a Copywriter to craft and refine the voice of the HoneyBook brand. Your words will build connections with our audience. Your ideas will shape the culture of the freelance and independent economy. Your work will inform, inspire, entertain—and even impress your parents.

  • Proofread and edit marketing copy with a keen eye for consistency and formatting. 
  • Keep up with industry best practices and emerging strategies, constantly pushing for fresh and innovative ideas.
  • Maintain a strong understanding of our products and target audience.

  • You have a passion for storytelling and conceptual thinking.
  • You have a discerning sense for compelling copy and know how to optimize it for performance.
  • You have exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
  • You have an eye for detail and can spot a typo from a mile away.
  • You’re a surgical editor who could easily make this job description shorter.
  • You have sharp and persuasive presentation skills that set your projects up for success.
  • You thoughtfully acknowledge, address, and implement stakeholder feedback.
  • You can use data to inform our messaging (even though you do words, not numbers).
  • You’re able to clearly express complex ideas to both technical and non-technical readers.
  • You cringe at cliches and consistently deliver clear and concise copy that sounds human.
  • You possess a strong sense of curiosity and grit, can work independently, and thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Proficiency with design software such as Figma and Photoshop is a plus.
  • Experience or exposure to UX copywriting is a plus.
  • Experience writing for a small business or entrepreneurial audience is also a plus.

The good stuff:

  • Mission-driven: You'll be joining more than just another startup—our members are at the heart of everything we do.
  • Impact: We move quickly and encourage every employee to push the envelope. Our best ideas come from out-of-the-box thinking and innovation; be ready to fail fast and often.
