Expected duration: Ongoing We're looking for a talented writer to create "business story" scripts for our YouTube channel, MagnatesMedia (1,000,000 subscribers).
This is remote freelance work you can do from anywhere in the world. The hours are completely flexible, and you can take on as many projects as you want (there are no set deadlines, as quality is all that matters). You will be paid per script, and this can become very regular ongoing work if that's what you're looking for.
The scripts we are looking for will primarily be: “The story of X” - either a big company (e.g. Apple or Nike) or a famous entrepreneur (e.g. Elon Musk or Henry Ford). The script should be written as a chronological story, focusing on the most interesting / dramatic elements.
We are NOT looking for an article writer, we are looking for someone who can create immersive stories that take us on a journey from the start of a company to present day. Your scripts will then be turned into mini movies for our channel.
Every script involves extensive research on a topic, finding the most interesting information, and then creating a compelling narrative that links everything together.
In other words, we want you to write thrilling stories with emotion, tension & high and lows - we DON'T want a boring academic essay / article.
It is essential you have the ability to conduct thorough fact-checked research, and turn that into a compelling and exciting story. (An interest in business would also be very helpful).
You will have some choice over which specific company/entrepreneur stories you work on, as we want to ensure you are working on stories you're interested in, and thus are happy to dig deeper into the research to find more unique information.
Once one script is finished, we can move onto a new script with a new story. However there is no tight deadlines, as a good script takes time and shouldn't be rushed.
Pay is competitive (and is negotiable based on the quality of your work). There is also a lot of opportunity for progression.
We do NOT have a long application process, and we do not mind about qualifications / CV’s / interviews - all we really care about is how great your writing and storytelling is.
If you can write scripts exactly like those on MagnatesMedia's YouTube channel (or better!), then please apply now! We look forward to hopefully working with you.
NOTE: In your submission, please mention the title of at least one of our YouTube videos so we know you actually looked at our channel. We will review every single applicant who does this. Good luck!
