Hello everyone,

I'm a company founder in early growth stages, looking to hire my first full-time marketing person.

I'm looking for someone who is interested in all aspects of growth: from deal sites and launch websites like Product Hunt, to analytical skills like competitor analysis to be able to identify channels of growth, to a bit of knowledge on paid Ads as well, just to name a few.

Ideally, this would be a general all-around marketing professional, with a great analytical mind, that can find and help the company explorer new channels of growth.

I suppose this type of all-round marketing professional is what we call a Growth Hacker, correct?

Or is for example paid ads outside of the scope of that role?

Let me know if I've misunderstood the term, and if you could point me to where I should go to hire marketing professionals?

I've tried Upwork so far, but somehow I'm not sure if it's the best place to look.

Thanks everyone for sharing your experience on this, good luck everyone with your companies and enjoy the growth ride.
