SCRATCH for Growth
OF COURSE WE'RE HERE TO MAKE A LIVING,
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, WE'RE HERE FOR THE IMPACT.
ARE YOU SICK OF IT?
Of cranking out communications for corporations while small businesses struggle?
Of squeezing out all your creative juice to help clients sell crap you don’t believe in,
understand, or care about?
Of cramming yourself into a cube for a “mandatory” 2-3 days a week?
Of trying to fit your non-traditional self into “traditional” roles and work environments?
WE'RE SICK OF IT, TOO.
THAT'S WHY WE STARTED SCRATCH.
We’re using our professional skills to support small businesses and their owners to strengthen the very fabric of our local communities — and pay our own bills in the process.
YOU SHOULD COME WORK WITH US.
Even though we’re allergic to cubicles, business-casual anything, and the 40-hour workweek — we’re still professional as hell.
We love learning new things and keeping our skills sharp.
On the rare occasions that our hands are idle,
they always find something meaningful to do.
We’re parents, partners, child-free, animal lovers, artists, analysts, organizers, activists, writers, and all the other things that come with an engaged being human.
REALLY, COME WORK WITH US.
All the innovative strategies, tight deadlines, high stakes, new technologies, astronomical budgets, and award-winning work we’ve managed over the years led us here: using our full breadth of experience to benefit the businesses we believe in.
Exactly where we want to be.
A COMMUNITY OF CONTRACTORS FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE
We work completely remotely and are staffed by a community of professional, independent contractors looking for that opportunity, that moment, where it was finally time to say, “Yes. This.”
Some are seasoned pros who have been in the business for decades. Others are newbies with just a few years of industry experience. Still others are really smart, really talented folks dipping their smarty-pants toes into a new career.
It all adds up to a community of people with varied, complementary experiences, ideas, and points of view to create great work for small businesses.
What’s more, we all share:
-
A dedication to small businesses
-
Accountability to our clients, ourselves, and each other
-
The ability to pick it up quickly, work fast, and deliver it clean
-
Willingness to charge a little less to benefit those we serve
-
Transparency in practices, pricing, and pay
-
Autonomy
-
Professionalism
-
Pretty great senses of humor
Considering a career switch? SCRATCH that itch.
