About Starting 5IVE Productions

Starting 5ive Productions ("S5" or "The 5ive") began as a passion project in 2022 when founders Colten and Kyler Gayle created a career highlight video for their brother. After receiving recognition for their work, S5 officially launched as a business in 2024 with the backing of serial entrepreneur Jesse Hejny. Currently based in Aledo, TX, we've since evolved into a full-service video production company, specializing in custom video production for sports, weddings, corporate, events, podcasts, and more. Our mission on each and every project is to capture and create compelling visual stories that bring communities together.

We're turning our business from a production house into a full-service content partner that doesn't just create exceptional content, but helps clients deploy it strategically to build lasting brands. To that end, we're seeking a driven, creative, and data-savvy Social Media & Content Marketing Manager to be the vanguard of this change. As this is a contract position, pay for this position will depend on your experience and efficacy.

Role Overview

This is a flex position, meaning you'll primarily work remotely with regular in-person check-ins. You'll work directly with the owners to build our content ecosystem from the inside out. This includes, but is not limited to: organizing our content library, developing our social media presence, researching KPIs for our social media analytics, and eventually helping us offer the same content strategy service to our clients.

This role is equal parts creative, analytical, and operational. If you love storytelling, strategy, and systems, this is your seat.

Key Responsibilities

On your own: audit, organize, and centralize all S5 content across SSDs, DropBox, Google Drive, and NAS storage into a clean, accessible library
With an owner: develop and execute a content deployment strategy aligned with S5’s rebrand; this includes setting up sub-account pages (e.g. @thes5ivesports, @thes5ivebusiness, @thes5iveweddings)
On your own: create respective, yet connected content calendars across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, X, and LinkedIn
On your own: track performance across all platforms and report on KPIs
With an owner: build and maintain a real-time analytics dashboard consolidating data across all platforms
With an owner: create and document SOPs and a content management playbook to support future team scaling
With our creative team: repurpose existing content via the content management playbook to maximize the value of every shred of content produced thereafter
With an owner: develop and launch a new social media marketing brochure
With an owner: leverage performance data with sales data for lead generation and client strategy
With an owner: implement a monthly check-in cadence (internal and client-facing) to review what's working and optimize accordingly
