Overview ☎ Community Phone Community Phone is building the Toast for phones. We are the friendliest phone company in the country, supporting >20,000 customers nationwide. Our product is designed around the physical phone -- the desk phone sitting next to your cash register. We are here to make sure you stop missing calls, your team can use the business phone number in the field, and your customers keep coming back. Outside of our business product, we also have a consumer product that blocks millions of phone scams per year. Our team is ~70 people strong, across 15 countries. We are cash flow positive. Join us in redefining the narrative, where communication is personal, secure, and built on trust. Let\'s connect the dots – one call at a time.
About the role Community Phone already works. We’ve reached 8-figure ARR with strong product-market fit, disciplined unit economics, and a lean team. Most growth to date has come from Google (organic + paid) and traditional media. The bottleneck is not analytics, tooling, or alignment. The bottleneck is opening the next scalable acquisition channel and making creative work at scale. We’re hiring a
Growth Lead, Acquisition
to own that problem end-to-end:
Identify a new non-Google channel
Make it viable through creative and execution
Scale it responsibly
Decide what lives and what dies
Please note: This is not a coordination role. This is an ownership role.
Your Mission Your job is to
build and scale a new acquisition channel outside of Google , with
creative as the primary lever .
Within ~90 days, success looks like:
Meta, TikTok, or another non-Google channel - or amalgam thereof - producing at least $100k of new ARR per month
Scaling at or below target CAC payback or target CAC:cohorted cash 3yr LTV ratio (net of experimental spend)
A repeatable creative testing system that produces winners
Clear conviction on whether the channel is worth further capital
You are accountable for outcomes, not just experimentation.
You will Own New Channel Creation. Launch, test, and scale non-Google channels (Meta, TikTok, affiliates, influencers, etc.). Start from zero, not from mature, inherited accounts. Own spend, pacing, and scale decisions within a ~$300k/month budget. Make clear go / no-go calls on channels quickly. Own Creative Direction for Acquisition.
Creative is not a downstream input in this role; it is the core growth lever. You will:
Define creative strategy by channel (angles, hooks, narratives, formats)
Design creative tests tied to explicit hypotheses
Drive testing velocity and iteration cadence
Identify when creative, bidding, targeting, or downstream website or lifecycle is the constraint
Be responsible for creative production
You are not necessarily expected to design assets yourself, but you are responsible for what creative exists, why, and on what production schedule. We do not have a dedicated creative resource that you will be handed.
Own Channel-Level Performance
You Are Directly Responsible For
Signup volume by channel
CAC efficiency, CAC:3yr LTV ratio, and payback trends on your channel(s)
Incremental MRR contribution from your channel(s)
Diagnosing performance swings and taking action
Attribution and reporting already exist. You can use that existing infrastructure to move quickly. You will be provided a strong in-house analytics and attribution resource.
Operate with Speed and Conviction
Place clear bets with imperfect information
Kill losers decisively
Avoid premature optimization
Communicate simply and honestly about what’s working and what isn’t
You are... This Role Is a Strong Fit If You
Have been a founder, early employee, or first growth hire at a startup that grew revenue fast
Have personally taken a non-Google acquisition channel from $0 → scale
Treat creative as a strategic system, not just assets
Are comfortable being judged by outcomes, not activity
Care both about a fast growth rate and financially sound unit economics
You Should Enjoy
High autonomy
Low bureaucracy
Direct access to decision-makers
Clear accountability
What We’re Not Looking For
Career media buyers optimizing mature accounts
Growth leads who coordinate but don’t own
Marketers who rely on agencies to think for them
Anyone uncomfortable being on the hook for channel result
Why Ex-Founders Like This Role
Founder-level trust without founder-level risk
Real budget and authority
Clear, durable impact
A chance to define a growth pillar, not just run campaigns
