Scrub Lou is looking for a Social Media & Content Marketing Intern who wants real, hands-on marketing experience. You’ll help take ownership of our social media — coming up with ideas, filming at jobs around Louisville, editing and posting content, engaging with our local audience, and finding creative ways to generate leads. This isn’t a shadowing internship. You’ll have creative freedom, work directly with the owner, and get to see how your work impacts a growing local business.
What You’ll Do:
- Create content. Come up with ideas and turn them into content for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and other platforms.
- Film in the field. Travel to cleaning jobs around Louisville to capture before-and-afters, transformations, behind-the-scenes footage, team content, and other opportunities.
- Edit and publish. Turn raw footage into engaging short-form videos and posts, write captions and hooks, and publish consistently.
- Help run our social media. Take an active role in what we post, when we post, and how Scrub Lou presents itself online.
- Engage locally. Interact with followers, local accounts, community pages, and relevant Facebook groups.
- Generate leads. Look beyond likes and followers and help us find creative ways to turn social media attention into actual customers.
- Follow trends. Stay on top of trends, formats, sounds, and ideas that we can adapt to our brand.
- Track results. Pay attention to views, reach, engagement, follower growth, leads, and other metrics to understand what's working.
- Bring ideas. We don't want someone waiting to be told exactly what to do. We want you to experiment, pitch ideas, and help us get better.
- We're looking for someone who:
- Is creative and genuinely understands social media
- Regularly uses platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook
- Understands what makes people stop scrolling
- Is comfortable filming with a phone and capturing content in real-world environments
- Has basic short-form video editing skills or is willing to learn quickly
- Is familiar with CapCut, Canva, Premiere Pro, or similar tools
- Can write strong hooks, captions, and social posts
- Is comfortable interacting with people
- Can work independently and manage their time
- Takes initiative instead of waiting for step-by-step instructions
- Is dependable and follows through
- Has reliable transportation and can travel throughout the Louisville area
- Current students studying marketing, communications, advertising, media, business, or a related field are encouraged to apply, but your major matters less to us than your creativity and willingness to learn.
- Previous content creation, photography, videography, social media, or marketing experience is a plus, even if you've only done it for yourself, a student organization, or a personal project.
- What You'll GetThis is designed to give you experience you can actually use after college. You'll gain hands-on experience in content creation, video editing, social media management, organic marketing, lead generation, analytics, and brand building.
- You'll work directly with the owner of Scrub Lou and have the freedom to test your own ideas instead of simply completing assignments.
- You'll also be able to walk away with a portfolio of real content and actual performance data showing what your work accomplished.
Hours: Approximately 10–15 hours per week
Location: Louisville, KY
Schedule: Flexible around your class schedule
Travel:
Local travel is required for some filming, with business mileage reimbursed. This is not a fully remote position. Some work can be done remotely, but you need to be available to visit Scrub Lou jobs and other locations around Louisville to capture content.
