    ]]>    <![CDATA[Writer/Thinker/Strategist]]>Mindpower Inc.
    Wonder Woman II, We’re Looking for You! (Wonder Man will work too, if he’ll actually work like our very own Kelly Makes does.) Yes, Kelly's is leaving Mindpower and taking her super-hero skills to Gotham City. That leaves us wondering where in the supernatural world we’ll find someone who can think, write, strategize, manage, and produce such extraordinary feats of mindpower? (All that, and she has a perfect face, figure, and ‘do, too.) We have to admit it: Our first impression of Kelly wasn’t all that positive. She was too… perfect. But we hired her anyway. Put her in the Mindpower pressure cooker for a few months, we smirked, and see how perfect she is then. Turns out, she was still pretty perfect. But now she’s moving on up to the Big Apple, and we’re looking for the perfect Peach to replace her. (Okay, you really don’t have to be perfect. You especially don’t have to be a size 2 who eats like a Sumo wrestler.) Here’s the basic job description: Workhorse thinker and writer. Kelly can think her way through steel barriers and write (seemingly) effortless copy with nary a drop of sweat. Multimedium. It’s one thing to write well, but can you do it for everything from looooooong annual reports to :30 TV spots – and then produce them? We’ll really miss Kelly’s versatility. Professional learner. When Kelly first came to Mindpower, there was a lot she didn’t know about branding, marketing, new media, etc. She mastered it all. Friend to clients. They love her, respect her, and listen to her. So, we’ve got big Blahniks to fill. If you’re not completely intimidated by what you’ve read so far (and who wouldn’t be?), take a look at the official job description and show us your stuff! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Title/Description Writer/Thinker/Strategist How do you think of yourself? Writer? Branding specialist? Obsessive overachiever? At Mindpower, we like all of the above, and if you can prove all three, you might just get hired. Smart writing is just the tip of the iceberg. You’ll also need a flair for savvy strategy, not to mention the unexpected. What else? It helps to be the sort clients invite to their board meetings – and their baby showers. Our next writer/thinker/strategist is: • A talented writer with five years experience or more • No stranger to brand development • Versed in print and electronic media (TV and radio are a bonus) • Comfortable working solo and with a team • Able to see the “big picture” at 50 paces • Great with clients • Proficient in Word, Quark, and Indesign • Comfortable presenting work to any audience • Versatile to the point of schizophrenia • Willing to do nothing less than great work We’re an award-winning marketing agency based in Atlanta. Our clients hail from all over the nation, and our work runs the gamut from comprehensive branding programs to (literally) tons of collateral.
