About Beecon

Beecon is a spontaneous meetup app: spark an activity, and it only goes live when enough people are in. We launched in San Francisco and are building our first real communities here from the ground up. No corporate team, no big budget,  just a product that works and a city full of people looking for their people.

The role in one sentence

Grow Beecon’s Instagram and bring users to the app and into real, active Beecons.

What you’ll own

1.  Instagram  and secondary channel growth — (IG + platform of your choice) 

You manage the account end to end: content calendar, publishing, captions, engagement, and weekly metrics.

• Plan and publish 3-4 posts per week ( Reels, carousels, post, or Stories) all tied to Beecon’s 3 content pillars
• Write captions in Beecon’s voice: casual, warm, self-aware — never corporate
• Engage with comments and reply to DMs in a reasonable time period
• Source and reshare UGC from Beecon attendees with permission
• Track weekly: follower growth, reach, saves, profile visits, and link-to-app-store clicks

2.  Host one anchor Beecon weekly

You run one recurring Beecon in a category that matches your actual interests. Filming is optional — showing up consistently and making it welcoming is the job.

• Spark it every week and recruit your own network for the first few weeks
• Share a simple recap to Instagram Stories after each one — photo or text, no production required

3.  Creator outreach pipeline

You discover potential partners for collaboration and manage relationships .

• Research and build a list of 20+ SF-based micro-influencers (5K–50K followers) in fitness, lifestyle, and new-city content
• Draft personalized outreach messages on behalf of Beecon
• Track responses, follow-ups, and partnership status in a simple shared tracker
