Job Description

SOCIAL MEDIA & MARKETING SPECIALIST | DFW REAL ESTATE TEAM

Are you a highly organized creative who loves bringing ideas to life through content, design, and strategy? Join a high-performing Dallas-Fort Worth real estate team where you'll blend artistic vision with systematic execution, turning listings into compelling stories and building a brand that stands out.

ABOUT THE ROLE

This isn't a typical marketing role. You'll need BOTH sides of your brain: the left side to build systems, manage projects, and track metrics, and the right side to craft beautiful designs, write compelling copy, and dream up creative campaigns.

You'll own the creative execution and strategic planning for our listings, social media, email marketing, and brand content. Every day you'll balance artistry (designing stunning listing materials, writing engaging posts) with organization (managing timelines in Asana, tracking performance, optimizing workflows).

This is an IN-OFFICE position in the Arlington area where you'll collaborate closely with our team.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

CREATIVE WORK (The Fun Stuff)

  • Design eye-catching listing flyers, booklets, and social graphics in Canva
  • Write compelling copy for listings, emails, blog posts, and social media

CONTENT & BLOGGING

  • Publish daily blog posts by expanding our LinkedIn content using AI (600-1,200 words)
  • Write one AI-search-optimized "about our team" blog post weekly
  • Structure content so AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity) can surface our team
  • Repurpose every blog into social posts, emails, and video scripts

EMAIL & DATABASE MARKETING

  • Design and send weekly/bi-weekly email campaigns via Flodesk
  • Write subject lines and CTAs that drive opens and clicks
