About Familiar Funhouse

Familiar Funhouse is a woman-owned, independent creative company based in Milwaukee.

Through Pitch Ritual, we provide social media marketing, branding, graphic design, video editing, and creative strategy for independent businesses, music venues, artists, record labels, entertainment brands, and other creatively-minded organizations. Through Return to Odd, we buy, curate, and sell vintage clothing and collectibles online and at local pop-up markets.

The business is led by a creative marketer with a decade of experience in event marketing, social media, branding, creative strategy, and vintage resale. Over the years, that experience has grown into a collaborative studio working with organizations that value creativity, authenticity, and community over cookie-cutter marketing.

We’re looking for someone who wants to grow alongside the business. This isn’t just an assistant position—it’s an opportunity to become part of a small creative team where your work has a direct impact on the brands we build and the clients we support.

If you’re someone who enjoys variety, likes learning new things, and gets excited about helping independent businesses succeed, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

No two weeks look exactly the same. This role supports several areas of the business, so responsibilities will vary depending on client projects, upcoming markets, digital product development, and business priorities. You won’t be expected to juggle every task listed below at once. Instead, these examples represent the kinds of work you’ll take on over time.

Depending on current projects, you may be asked to:

Pitch Ritual (80%)

• Edit short-form videos and Reels using CapCut, After Effects, etc.

• Produce templated graphics including calendars, social media graphics, resized artwork, and other production design

• Create & schedule content for Pitch Ritual’s social media channels

• Compile and organize social media analytics and client reports

• Assist with copywriting and scheduling posts across multiple client accounts

• Help produce downloadable resources and digital products for Pitch Ritual, including guides, workbooks, templates, checklists, one-pagers, and other educational materials

• Turn provided content and creative direction into polished, well-designed PDFs and other customer-facing resources

Return To Odd (20%)

• Assist with formatting, organizing, proofreading, and preparing digital products for sale or distribution

• Photograph, measure, organize, and list vintage clothing and collectibles on Depop and the Familiar Funhouse website

• Create content for Return to Odd social media

• Assist with inventory organization and e-commerce tasks

• Help with booth setup, teardown, and sales at occasional Milwaukee or Madison-area markets

• Support other creative, marketing, administrative, and operational projects as the business continues to grow

One day you might be editing a Reel for a music venue. Another day you could be laying out a downloadable marketing guide, photographing vintage jackets, organizing analytics for a client, or helping prepare for a weekend market. Variety is one of the best parts of this role.

• Creative, dependable, organized, and highly detail-oriented

• Comfortable balancing multiple projects and deadlines

• An excellent written communicator

• Receptive to feedback and genuinely excited to continue learning

• Interested in becoming a long-term part of a growing independent business rather than simply checking off tasks

• Comfortable working independently

Required Experience

• Proven experience creating and managing social media content

• Experience editing short-form video using CapCut or similar platforms

• Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects

• Familiarity with Meta Business Suite
