Membership Coordinator

Membership Coordinator Job Description

 Accepting applications until April 14th, 2025 at 11:55pm Pacific. 

General:

This agreement aims to lay out the general working terms and requirements for the position of MfH Membership Coordinator, as an independent contractor for the Marketing for Hippies membership program, as directed by Tad Hargrave.

The membership program is the core of Tad’s income and the members are a huge source of ‘word of mouth’ for Tad’s work. The successful execution of the MfH Membership Coordinator role is key to Tad’s business.

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is systems minded. You’re passionate about details, administration, project management, and creating and managing simple, sustainable systems. A love of spreadsheets and checklists will serve you well.
  • Loves our work. You’re familiar with and love the work of Marketing for Hippies around ethical and effective marketing and feel aligned with our Mission, Vision and Values and Contractor Values & Agreements.
  • Loves hippy entrepreneurs. You love the thought of supporting hippie entrepreneurs from around the world to grow their beautiful wee businesses into things that actually sustain them.
  • Is looking for a steady gig. You like the thought of this role being a significant part of your life for the coming three years at least (not just a few months), maybe even more! Our ideal person is not someone who is excited to get their own business off the ground full time as soon as possible.
  • Has a hard-working yet chill vibe.
  • Communication: We value honest, kind and clear communication and are looking for people who value the same. 
  • Self motivating: you’ll be given very clear systems but we’re also looking for someone who has a keen eye towards nipping problems in the bud and who can bring good suggestions for their resolution. 

Why It Matters:

This role is the central pillar for our business. Our Membership is the core income generator of Marketing for Hippies and the main way we help people:

  • 2025 will see us stabilizing the membership and migrating it from Mighty Networks to Simplero.
  • 2026-2027 will see us continuing to grow the Membership and rolling out an upgraded Membership in Simplero, an Apprenticeship Program (also housed in Simplero) where business coaches can dig deep into Tad’s approach to ethical marketing. During these years, we expect to see the size of our following grow significantly. 
  • 2029 and beyond will see the shift into Tad stepping back from Marketing for Hippies and into his cultural work. This may include the selling or passing on of Marketing for Hippies into other hands. Your role will be central in setting the stage to make this transition smooth and easy.

Core Things You’ll Need:

Tech: 
  • A strong, reliable internet connection.
  • A robust, reliable new-ish laptop or desktop with plenty of RAM and storage.
Time: 
  • The ability to regularly be in touch with someone in the Pacific time zone.
  • A willingness to participate in regular phone and/or Zoom meetings to stay in touch with staff and on top of tasks and projects (there will regularly be 3-5 meetings per week, at 1-2.5 hours per meeting). As systems improve, the need for these meetings may decrease. 
It would be fantastic if you already had experience and skill in:
  • Project Management: managing a production schedule and moving with ease between multiple projects and contractors. We’d love someone who is experienced in using Asana or Trello and could help migrate the team onto it. 
  • Growing Projects: If you’ve had experience in growing projects in their scale, taking on larger teams and more impact, this would be a help. 
  • Running Online Memberships (Community Relations): Ideally we’d love to find someone who has had time being a coordinator for other online communities.

What You Will Get From Marketing for Hippies:

  • A three-month trial period.
  • 20 hours of paid onboarding and orientation at your hourly rate
  • A robust and clear set-up for your position with practical details describing all aspects of the Membership Coordinators’ tasks.
