Lean Marketing • Chicago, IL

9d • $70,000 - $180,000 • Remote

About The Position

This role is for a Marketing Coach who wants to coach at scale and take ownership of client outcomes.
At Lean Marketing, you’ll coach and influence real businesses using proven IP inside a fast-growing company with high standards and zero tolerance for passengers. This role is for a Marketing & Business Coach who wants real ownership of client outcomes, real authority in the room, and the opportunity to coach at scale.
Lean Marketing exists to help business owners stop guessing and start growing.
Using the frameworks behind Allan Dib’s The 1-Page Marketing Plan, we help entrepreneurs build clear marketing systems, make better decisions, and create momentum in their businesses. This role is where that IP comes to life — turning strategy into results.

Requirements

• Generalist marketing expertise (strategy → execution): Able to diagnose a business, design an end-to-end marketing strategy, and translate it into a clear, executable plan with priorities and sequencing.
• Copywriting & messaging fundamentals: Able to assess and improve client messaging and copy across key assets.
• Calm authority under pressure: When clients feel overwhelmed or scattered, you bring clarity, direction, and confidence — without absorbing their stress or diluting the plan.
• Comfortable leading rooms and holding the line: You can command a group, steer conversations back to what matters, and say the hard thing when a client is avoiding the real work.
• Fast-thinking, adaptable judgment: You process information quickly, spot the real constraint, and adjust in real time without needing a script or escalation.
• Prescriptive coaching over people-pleasing: You coach with conviction. You give clear recommendations, make decisions, and don’t hide behind “options” to stay liked
• High care, high standards: You genuinely care about clients — and that care shows up as expectations, accountability, and follow-through
• Clear written thinking and framework-driven communication: You write structured, concise feedback, think in frameworks, and can explain complex ideas simply and decisively.
• Constraint identification and leverage thinking: Quickly identify what’s actually limiting growth and know which levers to pull next to create momentum and results.
• Guiding implementation inside real businesses: Guide clients through executing strategies inside their business — teams, timelines, and systems included
• Strong teaching and coaching communication: Explain complex ideas simply, give precise direction, and communicate confidently in both live calls and written feedback.
• Strong prioritization & judgment: Help clients focus on the right work at the right time — and manage your own workload across a large client base
• Systems & methodology application: Comfortable working within proven frameworks and processes, applying them consistently while using judgment when edge cases appear
• Minimum 5 years marketing experience
• Coaching, consulting or teaching experience of any kind.

Responsibilities

• Coach up to 75+ active clients using Lean Marketing IP, ensuring consistent progress toward defined marketing and business growth goals
• Run high-impact coaching calls (1:many and structured 1:1) focused on diagnosis, prioritization, clarity, and next best actions
• Create & review client marketing plans, messaging, and funnels, diagnose business and funnel constraints and prescribe the highest-leverage next actions
• Hold clients accountable to 90-day goals and KPIs, tracking progress and intervening when momentum stalls
• Guide clients in building or improving in-house marketing systems and teams, not outsourcing chaos
• Communicate with clients via async channels (written feedback, Looms, templates) to drive momentum
• Uphold Lean Marketing coaching standards, documenting patterns, improvements, and repeatable wins to strengthen the program

Benefits

• Fully remote, high-trust environment: Work from anywhere. You’re measured on outcomes and standards, not time online or activity theatre. Beginning at 25 hours per week, we will scale this to full-time within the first 3-5 months.
• Total of 38 days of paid vacation: 30 days of PTO with an additional day off on your birthday, plus 7 country-specific holidays
• Salary at $70-180k+ FTE (based on number of clients held) with growth opportunities at a company in scale mode.
• World-class IP and credibility: You’ll coach using the frameworks behind Allan Dib and The 1-Page Marketing Plan — proven, respected IP that gives you instant authority with clients.
• Coach real businesses to real results: This isn’t hypothetical coaching. You’ll help business owners make clearer decisions, implement faster, and see tangible growth in revenue, leads, and confidence.
• Scale your income with impact: As your client load grows and your quality holds, so does your earning potential. Bonus structures reward excellent coaching and client success.
• Fast-growing company, real momentum: Lean Marketing is scaling. You’re joining a team building something meaningful, not maintaining a stagnant program.
• Accelerated skill growth: Coaching 75+ businesses forces sharp thinking, better judgment, and faster pattern recognition — your skills compound quickly here.
• Recognition and celebration for wins: Strong performance is seen, acknowledged, and celebrated. Doing great work here doesn’t go unnoticed.
