Digital Marketing Specialist – Web / Video / Graphic
Best Defense Fire Protection & Security, Inc. seeks a creative character with impressive digital media and storytelling skills to create compelling graphic and text content for our revamped websites, social media channels, and print campaigns.
This part-time in-office position is perfect for a well-organized self-starter who enjoys practicing in a variety of media and channels.
In addition to managing these web campaigns, candidate will create video and graphic content utilizing the full suite of Adobe apps, including some hilarious projects in Photoshop when we’re not doing serious business work.
The ideal candidate will have demonstrated success in graphic design, web design, and website marketing analytics, as well as experience with writing some HTML and CSS, and working in a small business setting.
Interested candidates are strongly encouraged to submit a digital portfolio featuring original, refined craft work in each of these areas.
This is an exciting position with a core focus on web campaigns, plus some new tasks each week:
- Wix/WordPress master. Polish and improve our main site and build out the sites of our product lines and partner companies.
- Video. Utilizing Adobe Premiere, create basic video clips for use in landing pages, employment ads, web content, and training. Experience with video is not necessary, we can contract the more complex videos. This is a fun add-on to the position, recording 4K video and doing basic editing. We have a green screen and want to create some basic, but useful and fun content.
- Job success stories! We will utilize your talents to recognize the successful efforts of our field installation and management team. We create graphic whitepapers, blog content, and web content around our successful projects. We also recognize employees with graphic “Wall of Fame” posters. Part of your daily activities will include getting out in the field to capture these successes and create content to share with our customers, potential customers, and potential employees.
- Training videos and guides. We’re going to “thin-slice” the tasks of each position within our growing company and create videos and “how to” tutorials.
- SEO magic. To stand out and rise above the din, a reputable company needs more than an industry-leading company needs more than a great track record and the digital media to showcase it.
- Web store management. Best Defense has been in the alarm business for nearly 30-years, and we have produced or collected a variety of top-shelf life-saving devices, top-shelf components, and random odds-and-ends parts for resale.
- Facebook. Customer success stories, new product and service announcements, and fun company stories. Channel to be updated three times per week.
Beyond these core duties, we have opportunities for extra projects:
- Vinyl signs. If you have experience in vinyl sign installation, that’s a bonus. We letter our own vehicles. If not, we’ll train you and give you one extra feather to add to your experience cap.
- Organize and highlight company adventures. Few of these lately, but we need somebody who can make next year’s Halloween costume day epic!
- Print brochures. We create cool posters for around our offices and flyers for customer meetings / mailers.
- Direct the ground-up collaborative re-design and re-write of our operations manual and corresponding digital training content.
- Create PDF templates and forms for our sales, service, inspection, and installation teams.
- Photography / Video. Utilizing our 4K camcorder, Nikon DSLR, and drone create images and content. Experience with photo / videography is helpful, but not high on our priority list. We can get you trained on these basics.
