Social Media Marketing Strategist

American Digital Pros is seeking a Social Media Marketing Strategist to develop and execute marketing strategies for a musician client specializing in jazz piano. The client is a pianist, composer, and educator with a strong jazz foundation, though the work spans multiple music genres. This role requires someone with direct experience working with musicians, not just general brands, who understands the unique behaviors of music audiences and how to build a following around performance footage, educational content, music releases, and the artist’s personality.

Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement social media strategies tailored specifically for musicians and music industry clients.
- Create and manage content calendars that include performance clips, teaching materials, and new releases to engage and grow the audience.
- Craft compelling captions and storytelling elements that reflect the artist’s brand and visual identity.
- Utilize AI tools to enhance productivity and creativity, ensuring AI supports the strategy rather than replacing original thinking.
- Monitor and analyze audience engagement to refine strategies and maximize growth.
- Collaborate closely with the artist to maintain authentic branding that highlights their personality and artistry.
- Maintain a high level of attention to detail in all written and visual content.

Required Qualifications:
- Proven experience working with musicians or clients in the music industry, with a preference for those familiar with jazz or multiple music genres.
- Strong understanding of branding, visual identity, and storytelling within the context of artist promotion.
- Demonstrated content marketing skills, including caption writing, content calendar development, platform-specific strategies, and audience growth techniques.
- Proficiency in using AI tools to support social media marketing efforts, with the ability to think independently and creatively beyond automated prompts.
- Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and skilled in both written and visual communication.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits:
- Experience building a brand around an artist’s unique identity rather than treating them as a generic business.
- Flexibility to work remotely or on-site depending on the candidate’s fit and preferences.
- Open to various engagement models, including salaried positions or project/retainer arrangements, allowing for a tailored working relationship.

This opportunity is ideal for a strategist who genuinely understands the nuances of marketing within the music industry and is passionate about helping artists grow their presence authentically. Candidates with a portfolio of past music-client work and a clear approach to integrating AI tools into their workflow are encouraged to apply.
