Copywriter, Swooped – $100K – $120K/year
Our client is on a mission to unjunk the world, starting with chocolate.
The story began when two individuals who loved candy got tired of being told they couldn’t eat it. All their favorites were filled with artificial ingredients, excess sugar, and ingredients they couldn’t pronounce. Why did something that tasted so good have to be so bad for them? OR DID IT?
That question inspired the mission: to unjunk the world. The organization was born, and it sparked a ripple of change. With real, simple ingredients, no artificial anything, way less sugar, and unbelievable taste, those individuals proved that better was possible (and, well, better).
Today, the organization is shaking up an old-school industry, winning over a devoted fanbase, and showing up on more and more shelves every day.
About The Role
