About The Position

Growth Marketing Manager Reports to CEO · Seattle (hybrid) · $130–150K base + equity About Crowd Cow Crowd Cow sources premium meat and seafood directly from farms and fishermen and ships it to subscribers who care where their food comes from. Our thesis is simple: quality and provenance should win — and we’ve built a real, profitable business around it. We’re a small, disciplined team, and we’re adding the growth DNA to supercharge acquisition. Why this role exists Your mission is to find where our people are hanging out—both online and out in the real world—and build real, viral momentum. There’s an entire world of meat enthusiasts who are tailor-made for our value proposition, who have never heard of Crowd Cow, simply because they’re gathering in spaces and communities we haven't shown up to yet. We’re hiring you to hunt down these spaces—whether that's a niche digital forum or an offline community—and prove we can win these customers. We have the thesis. You’re here to prove it works. Who you are Mission fuels you. You’re mission-driven, not a growth mercenary. You find audiences other people miss. You have strong instincts and a proven track record for locating where customers actually gather and earning their trust. You thrive on building customer momentum and product buzz. You hunt and farm new channels beyond traditional PPC. You stand up non-traditional channels and turn what works into a repeatable playbook. You think product-led. You sit at the Product and Growth overlap, and you shape how the value prop shows up in the product and UX.
