- Copywriting for email, SMS, social media, paid media ads, and websites.
- Executing light back-end website updates (e.g., donation pages, landing pages, disclaimers, redirects).
- Assisting with list growth and acquisition strategy across channels, including email list rentals, SMS prospecting, and direct-to-donate advertising.
- Supporting testing and optimization efforts — including subject lines, SMS framing, creative, landing pages, and segmentation strategies.
- Working within CRMs and fundraising platforms (e.g., NGP, ActionKit, ActBlue) to build, QA, and deploy content.
- Collaborating with the rest of the Sunny Day team to ensure smooth delivery of program strategy and execution for clients.
- Helping maintain internal tracking systems and reporting dashboards to monitor ROI, growth, and channel performance.
- Engaging with clients through email, video meetings, and messaging platforms to coordinate work.
The job location for this position is flexible (fully remote, in-person based in Washington DC, or hybrid).
