The Challenge

Trove is building the future of collectibles from the ground up with top-tier founders and investors behind them. You'll architect a growth system that spans brand, community, creators, and commerce—not just app installs. This is 0-1 growth leadership on a cultural phenomenon waiting to compound.

Your Mission

1

Map and document the end-to-end growth system across all channels (paid, organic, creator-led, offline) with repeatable playbooks

2

Launch 2-3 major content campaigns (video-first, platform-native) across TikTok, YouTube, and livestream to establish brand presence and test viral mechanics

3

Establish creator/influencer partnership framework and land 5-10 initial collaborations that drive authentic community momentum

4

Audit and optimize paid acquisition setup on Meta, Google, YouTube, TikTok with baseline CAC/LTV metrics and identify scaling channels

By 6 Months
1

Scale paid acquisition channels to profitable unit economics with clear ROAS thresholds across platforms

2

Build and execute 4+ brand campaigns that feel native to internet culture and achieve 2-3x viral amplification targets

3

Establish creator program generating 20%+ of new user acquisition through organic partnerships and co-marketing

4

Implement growth-as-product initiatives (referrals, viral loops, community mechanics) directly into product roadmap with measurable impact on retention and LTV

KPIs You'll Own

Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)

Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've led growth from 0-1 at a high-growth consumer brand and know how to architect repeatable systems without getting stuck in process
  • You've successfully executed both paid acquisition campaigns and brand/content campaigns that felt native to internet culture
  • You've worked directly with founders, operated in ambiguity, and moved fast without perfect information
  • You genuinely understand how culture spreads online—memes, creators, communities, momentum—and can translate that into strategy
  • You care about collectibles, internet communities, or creator culture and can get genuinely excited about the mission
Won't Work If
  • You have less than 5-7 years in digital product marketing or growth at a real consumer brand
  • You haven't owned the launch of a new digital product from conception through scale
  • You think growth is mainly about running app install campaigns and email funnels
  • You haven't worked directly with founders or can't handle the chaos and ambiguity of early-stage startup growth
