Role: Director of Influencer Talent

Where: Venice, CA in the heart of an eclectic artist community

Scenario: Let’s imagine for a moment (close your eyes please)…wait, nvm.

You are reading.

Open your eyes and imagine.

In front of you there is a large body of water with 21,000 video creators from around the world.

Some are doing laps, working hard and thriving; others are bobbing about buoyed by floaties, not so confident in their breaststrokes; some have managed to find their way onto jet skis and are launching into aerials, making waves for the others; and well…, some are just doggy paddling, barely staying afloat.

Maybe even trying to swim ashore.

This is our sea of MagicLinks Influencers.

And if you look out even farther along the horizon, there are 1 million more…divers, synchronized swimmers, floaters, doggy paddlers, aerialists…

high potential influencers.

Have we lost you? Hopefully not because this is where you come in.

You are the conductor of this oceanic experience and your goal is to get as many of these 21k + 1M beloved creators at the helm of our modern day Titanic (but not the kind that sinks; oh no, we’re talking Larry Ellison superyacht style).

Head back, arms stretched hugging the wind, smiling ear-to-ear, yelling at the top of their lungs…I’M FLYING!
