We are looking to bring on a Media Buyer to join our team! This is a huge opportunity for you to work with one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S. and learn the ins and outs of the online business world. Over the last couple of years, our company has seen explosive growth—and there is no sign of it slowing down.
In order to keep hitting our goals, which include having the largest number of high quality deals in the market, we need to expand our horizons and improve our customer experience to a point that makes us the de-facto standard for buying and selling online businesses. Your work will help propel the industry forward to new levels not seen before.
Being a location-independent full time position is one of the many benefits. You’ll be free to work anywhere in the world outside of the USA (with the exception of Colorado, Florida, or Texas). Be it the beaches in Thailand – which does have superb 4G connectivity and cheaper cost of living – or in a mountain resort in the Swiss Alps – the choice is yours. *see USA resident requirements below.
If this sounds like an exciting opportunity for you, then read on to learn more about our company and how to apply for the position!
Becoming a Media Buyer makes you a critical part of Empire Flippers. You will learn skills that will last you a lifetime in the online business world.
You will be responsible for working with the marketing team to create a collaborative strategy to increase brand exposure, generate leads and drive real revenue. You will build and implement a variety of performance campaigns across Google, Facebook and Linkedin. Over time, other ad networks will likely be explored and tested.
In addition to performance networks, you will also assist in non-performance media buys such as show, newsletters and conference sponsorships.
You’ll be working closely with our marketing team where we’ll teach you the ins and outs of the online business brokerage industry, coming from years of experience. You will also be in close contact with the sales team to routinely analyze and audit the leads, scheduled meetings and ultimately the quality of the marketing qualified leads that are passed on to the sales team.
This is a full-time remote position. Our company is growing at a fast rate, which means excellent opportunities for personal and career growth. We may ask you to attend conferences too, which can help you network with industry leaders.
The Media Buyer position is vital to the success of our company, working within the marketing department to run a mixture of direct response, retargeting various funnel segments, and content driven marketing campaigns that will feature a variety of goals. One day might be spent split-testing a direct ad for lead generation, another working with the content team on the best way to implement ads to boost content exposure, and another day crafting a buzz marketing campaign around specific events such as conferences.
For an ambitious and hard working candidate that can produce success, there is a possibility to have a real seat at the marketing table as an active decision maker.

We believe in hiring people that are a good fit for us culturally.
The right candidate must fit our brand and be able to display their ability to drive meaningful revenue in a tough B2B market with long, complex sales cycles. This role requires a high level of competency, creativity, work ethic and the desire to push the limits of what is possible within the marketing team.
Required skills:
Preferred Skills:
Our company culture is built on the idea of travel, remote work, and living life on your terms.
We’re not looking to put you in a cubicle and waste your time in traffic. You’ll be working hard, playing hard, and learning all about our company and what we stand for during this time.
Apart from meeting us in person every now and then, you’re free to work and live anywhere you’d like and join the new class of digital nomads – we’re homeless but have a passport, credit card, and a laptop.
You’ll become friends with people who will be able to give you massive insights into how digital businesses work, how they scale, and, of course, how to invest in them or sell them.
This isn’t a gap year experience. This is not a temporary contract.
If you’re applying just because you want something to fund your travels before you start seeking out a “serious” job, then you probably shouldn’t apply.
We’re looking for career-minded people who share our vision and see where we’re going. We want you to be part of that vision and help us get there over the long haul.
And while we play hard and sometimes really do work next to the pool all day, we work even harder. Sometimes you will be putting in a 10-12 hour day as business demands arise. You’ll be working weird hours to match other team members time zones, and you’ll sometimes have to face some critical feedback.
You will be expected to perform to our expectations and really help us grow our business to the next level. We’re counting on you.
If you can see yourself growing into a profitable and meaningful career with us and love what we do, we want you to be part of our team.
The role is fast-paced, dynamic and very much an evolving position.
While the media buying department will in large part be built from scratch, this position itself is not an entry level role. You will start with a $2000 month base rate, plus immediately join our lucrative bonus sharing plan. Should company performance reach 100% of on target earnings, you have a very good opportunity to earn between $60,000-$70,000 in your first year with the potential to make six figures in your second year.
We’re going to start you off slow. You’ll first learn about our company and what each department does; then you will be given some low-level tasks to ease you into the position. Over time, your skills will grow and you’ll be making a lot of decisions on your own. However, you will always have our support and knowledge to lean on. We aren’t going to throw you to the wolves — you’ll be part of a high-functioning team that is here to help wherever we can.
*see US resident requirements below.
Our Director of Marketing and CMO will be reviewing every application. If we think you’re a good fit, we will reach out to you to do a video call interview. After the first interviews are done, our final candidates will be brought back for a final second interview before we make our decision.
*US resident requirements: we will accept candidates residing in Texas, Florida, or Colorado, as we are registered for payroll in these states. Otherwise, US candidates should plan to live abroad or have plans to relocate to Texas, Florida, or Colorado.
We have a no side project policy: we do not allow any ownership, association, or affiliations with online businesses or websites. If you are the owner of an online business, then you will be expected to either sell the business before you join us or sunset it upon accepting a job offer from us. If you are not comfortable with this, please do not apply.
A background check is required.
Here is the sequence of events we use when hiring our Media Buyer:
*YouTube Video Requirements:
We will only accept submissions that include a YouTube URL. Please leave the video “unlisted” in preferences and share the link with us. The quality of the video doesn’t matter, and there are no bonus points for editing. We just want (up to) three minutes of you explaining (based on your previous experience) why this position is an excellent fit for you and us.
