    WE’RE LOOKING FOR A CUSTOMER SUPPORT AGENT TO JOIN OUR TEAM! (100% REMOTE)

    ABOUT LIVE YOUR MESSAGE

    Our mission is to get people so excited about changing their lives... that they stop dreaming and start doing. 

    Through "choose your own adventure" online business education, we make it possible for anyone with a big message to reach more people, make more money and have a bigger impact by creating a business that's authentic and aligned with who they are.

    In service of this mission, our team is behind some of the most creative online marketing and digital product launches out there and we partner with the top business & internet marketing minds on the planet. 

    As you can imagine, it's a good time to be in online education and we're experiencing rapid growth. Live Your Message grew by 80% in the height of the pandemic, landing us on the Inc 5000 List of Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America for two years in a row. And we expect this growth to continue. 

    We're at a pivotal moment in our growth and we're looking for an exceptional Customer Support Agent to join us. 

    YOUR MISSION -- SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT -- IS TO...

    Be the chief ninja of our help desk. You’ll spend your time on Live Your Message’s email, phone, live chat, social media and support desk “front lines” making sure our students, prospects, and community members are looked after, feel energized and have everything they need to succeed.

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    You make the smiles happen!

    In the role of Customer Support Agent you get to troubleshoot basic technical issues for our students (‘reboot your computer, clear your browser cache, here’s your password, here’s how you purchase’), and do it all with a heart of gold. 

    You will also be investigating bug reports to document for our tech team, so you’ll need to know your way around a computer and have solid technical skills to pick up new apps with ease. 

    It is important that you are naturally a relationship-focused, confidence-building, team player who enjoys meeting-new-people kinda person. 

    ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES:

    • Monitor and respond quickly to incoming requests from our students  including support over the phone, email, and occasionally on zoom for VIP students.

    • Become a program expert for the Live Your Message programs so that you can guide students through their tools and other offerings as they are released.

    • Work with our Fulfillment Team to evolve our programs by  providing student feedback, recommending improvements, escalating concerns and ultimately empowering our students to succeed.

    • Turning upset customers threatening to leave negative reviews into raving fans who love our programs and support.

    • Assist with some light training and onboarding of new support staff as we grow.

    • Teach our students how to help themselves faster next time by pointing them to all the  resources we make available to them.

    • Help maintain our Knowledge Base with new product information and systems documentation.

    • Moderate webinars and livestream virtual events.

    • Once the world gets back to normal, support our super-fun live events to handle set-up, registration and other needs

    • Ability to work overtime when necessary, primarily during program launches and live events.

    ABOUT YOU:

    • 2+ years in customer-support focused role

    • You are 100% accountable. You own your commitments all the way down the line.

    • You understand that proactive support is better than reactive support.

    • You do your best work under pressure in a high-volume Customer Support environment while maintaining a sincere compassion for the problems our students are facing.

    • You possess a genuine passion for empowering customers, resolving issues and answering all types of questions with a genuinely relaxed, friendly attitude.

    • You demonstrate excellent problem solving skills (both soft and technical), and ability to translate student questions into clear and actionable requests.

    • You have the inner confidence to ask for help when you need it and clarity when you don’t understand things. (We want you to win and will help you do it!)

    • You have a great sense of humor! We all get along, like to have some fun and laughs -- and want you to fit right in.

    • Organization is your middle name.

    • You have a love for the unknown and a sense of accomplishment when tackling a challenge.

    TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE REQUIRED: 

    • Experience with Helpdesk Software 

    • Project Management 

    • CRM experience

    • G-Suite, including Sheets, Docs, & Drive

    • Social Media 

    • Basic knowledge of how email marketing works

    • Ability to pick up new apps and technology with ease

     

    BONUS POINTS:

    • Knowledge base development experience

     

    THE DEETS

    This is a full-time position with benefits. We’re looking for someone who’s interested in sticking around to grow with us, not just someone looking for a “side gig” to keep them afloat as they pursue their real passion. There will be plenty of opportunities for growth here!

    The role is currently 100% virtual, but you need to be available to work during “normal business hours” regardless of the time zone you live in (approximately 9am to 6pm Pacific, give or take two hours, with some flexibility). Some weekend and night work will be required during events and launch activities. And, having a reliable up-to-date computer is a must!

    WHAT TO EXPECT AS A TEAMMATE OF LIVE YOUR MESSAGE

    You’ll be part of a hard-working and amazing team who are dedicated to making a difference in this world through the people we serve -- a team who truly enjoys what they do… and has fun along the way too!

    You’ll be supported with practical information and systems that set you up for success. Including a fun, gamified context for completing your goals, making suggestions and working together as a team.

    You’ll never be penalized for taking initiative to solve a problem or to fix a systems issue that you identify.

    And you'll have plenty of opportunities to learn and grow -- personally and professionally with training courses, mentorship, fun retreats and working team vacations -- as well as opportunities for advancement. 

    BY NOW YOU HAVE A SENSE OF WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE DO AND THE OPPORTUNITY THAT AWAITS YOU. IF THIS POSITION IS CALLING OUT TO YOU, WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
