The Mission You'll Join
BizScout is an M&A marketplace startup headquartered in Austin, TX, revolutionizing how everyday individuals engage in buying and selling businesses. We believe that buying small businesses should be even easier than buying real estate. We serve as the vital link between one generation's legacy of small business creation and the next generation who will buy and innovate within them.
Our platform acts as a rapidly expanding marketplace for business acquisition opportunities, complemented by qualified partner brokers providing personalized support to our vital business owner base. Pairing technology with business search, we aim to establish ourselves as the premier destination for business transactions, driven by genuine human connections and smart technology. We're building this at a pivotal moment-with $11T worth of baby-boomer-owned businesses transitioning this decade, the opportunity to impact small business ownership has never been greater. Your Future Impact
As our Marketing Manager, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping our marketing strategy across social media, brand, and performance marketing. You'll be responsible for engaging our three key audiences: business buyers, sellers, and brokers, by integrating various marketing tactics to elevate BizScout's presence. We're looking for someone who can wear multiple hats, bringing creativity and strategy to make BizScout a dynamic hub for business ownership conversations, educational content, and community building.

Brand Marketing: Translate complex M&A concepts into accessible, engaging content that resonates with our diverse audience. Manage our content calendar to ensure consistent, high-quality storytelling that aligns with our brand voice.
Performance Marketing: Track and analyze metrics across all marketing channels to optimize engagement, conversion, and ROI. Drive multi-channel campaigns that generate qualified leads for all audience segments, focusing on both organic and paid strategies.

Excellence in storytelling with the ability to adapt tone and messaging for various platforms and audiences.
