Freelance Writing Jobs in Minnesota (NOW HIRING)

Company Description

On the day Fallon opened its doors without a single client, it did so under the headline, "A new advertising agency for companies that would rather outsmart the competition than outspend them."

More than 40 years later, and this mantra is unwavering. We are a creatively-led agency who pinned our public reputation on our commitment to smarts.

Smart brands create something of value in the world: entertainment value, social value, and belief value. Smart brands are additive to peoples' lives and to culture. They help build ideas in the world, and they leave something behind.

Overview

This role will have the opportunity to create internet-breaking work. Candidates should have the strategic writing and communication skills necessary to conceptually generate and produce bold ideas.

This person should be terminally online and well-versed in the ways of Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, Meta, Snapchat, and that new one that probably came out between the time this was written and when it was published.

The best portfolios will show a range of social-first projects, from content to campaigns to reactive moments to activations. Of course, we love candidates who have had viral moments on their own personal platforms as well.
