Content: The Content team is responsible for helping small businesses create compelling and engaging marketing content for their business. The team builds agentic interface to create personalized marketing content, leveraging the AI capabilities in the Marketing Suite product, and aims to take the burden of content creation off of businesses and give them the tools to approve or tune suggestions as they need. Joining this team would be working with AI prompting, hyper-specific content creation and suggestions, and creating an automated marketing agent that works year round for small businesses.
