Freelance Creative Strategist / Copywriter
Role Summary
Big ideas. Sharp copy. Creative that moves. Alpha Lion is building a network of freelance Creative Strategists and Copywriters who know how to turn customer insight into performance creative that wins. You’ll research audiences, uncover compelling angles, write scroll-stopping concepts and scripts, and use real results to make the next idea stronger. This is a remote freelance opportunity with the potential to grow into a longer-term or full-time role based on performance, business needs, and mutual fit. This posting supports an ongoing talent pool, so project timing and weekly hours may vary.
What You’ll Do
Turn customer research, market signals, competitor activity, and performance data into original creative concepts.
Develop sharp angles, hooks, scripts, briefs, and ad copy for paid-social creative.
Build concepts around customer awareness, motivations, objections, and the language people actually use.
Partner with editors, designers, creators, and media buyers to bring ideas from brief to finished asset.
Review creative performance and explain why an ad won, lost, or deserves another iteration.
Transform winning ideas into thoughtful new tests without simply producing surface-level variations.
Manage your assignments independently, communicate clearly, and deliver polished work on schedule.
Help Alpha Lion build a faster, smarter, more repeatable creative-testing engine.
