Remote Marketing Assistant (Contractor)

Are you a proactive, digitally-savvy professional who gets genuine excitement from helping people thrive? Do you believe that behind every brand is a person with a dream, a family, and a community they serve? If you’re nodding your head, we should talk.

At Merkados Digital Agency, we’re more than just marketers; we become partners for local businesses primarily in Pittsboro, Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill. Our AIM System is the engine that attracts clients, improves marketing, and creates unstoppable momentum. Now, we’re looking for a talented contractor to help us amplify that impact.

This is a perfect role for a motivated independent professional seeking super flexible, meaningful work (starting at up to 20 hours per month) with a local agency that values innovation, results, and human connection.

Your Mission: Be the Bridge Between Vision and Results

In this contractor role, you will be the vital link that keeps our client relationships strong and our growth trajectory climbing. You’ll wear several hats, each crucial to our shared success.

  • Growth Scout: You’ll have a keen eye for opportunity, prospecting new business partnerships that align with our mission to serve local founders and marketing directors.
  • Lead Generation Architect: Through personalized outreach via phone, email, and thoughtful mail, you will play a key role in building the pipeline that powers our agency. Your efforts will connect our services with businesses that need them the most—whether they’re dentists, lawyers, or chiropractors. You’ll have the insight to identify their needs and proactively reach out to present our tailored solutions.
  • Client Communications Conductor: You’ll be the reassuring, responsive voice primarily over email, ensuring our clients feel supported, informed, and valued every step of the way.
  • Digital Narrator: You’ll craft and schedule compelling social media posts for our clients, telling their unique stories and engaging their communities.
  • Versatile Digital Specialist: No two days are the same. Your tasks will vary from updating website content and crafting client newsletters to assembling insightful reports. You’ll be the Swiss Army knife of our digital toolkit.

Who You Are:

We’re looking for more than a set of skills. We’re looking for a kindred spirit.

  • You communicate in English with clarity, warmth, and professionalism. You understand that an email can build trust or break it.
  • You’re naturally curious and love the puzzle of prospecting. Finding the perfect potential partner feels like a win.
  • You’re not afraid to pick up the phone or send a personalized note. You understand that genuine connection is the ultimate marketing tool.
  • You have a basic grasp of social media platforms and a desire to learn more on how to create content that resonates.
  • You’re organized, adept at managing varied tasks, and take ownership of your work. You see a “digital task” as a chance to solve a problem.
  • Most importantly, you share our core beliefs in faith, family, and the value of hard work. You want to contribute to something that matters.

Why Partner with Merkados?

You’ll be integrated into our systems and our culture.

  • Work with Purpose: Every task you complete directly helps a local business owner, a dentist, a landscaper, a startup founder achieve their dreams. That’s powerful.
  • Flexible & Remote: Structure your professional service around your life. All we require is reliability and results.
  • Grow with Us: As Merkados grows, so will the opportunities for this role. We invest in people who help us move forward.
  • Be Part of the Edge: You’ll work with our cutting-edge AIM System and see how professional strategy, design, and technology combine to generate real ROI.
