Eric Harr Social Media’s mission is: do good business with good people as we do good in our world. It’s not a well-aliterated tagline. It is our bedrock principle that guides everything we do.
We are a boutique agency on the leading-edge of arguably the most prolific shift in the history of communications and marketing. Sounds a bit melodramatic, but it’s true. Social media is the fastest-growing form of communication in history. It has overtaken pornography as the #1 activity on the Web. Social media is not big. It’s Tyrannasaurus Rexian.
That said, this is a deeply rewarding and exciting business. Each day, we have the opportunity to make a real and tangible impact in the lives of people around the world.
There are few, if any, specialized social media agencies out there. We resolutely believe we are the best. We hand-select our clients. When we work with a client, it means we love them. No, really. It means we love them. We love their brand. We love how they do business. They are family. We are fanatical about taking exquisite care of our clients; if you are thinking of working with us, you should know that above all else. We only take on a few clients each year and we give them everything we’ve got.
In addition to working with the brightest, most ambitious people in a rapidly-changing industry, you will have an opportunity to make a real difference in this world. Our commitment to social good runs as deep as our passion for social media.
Eric Harr Social Media is a results-driven agency, but there is no pride of authorship or ego here. This is not an hierarchical organization. We are all about results for our clients. But we like to have fun, and we challenge one other to stretch our talents and reach new heights for our clients.
Fold your resume length-ways, then inwards, then outwards to make wings. Then fly it out the window.
Sure, we may look at your resume. But to be candid, we’re more likely to make some sort of origami project out of it. We work with stellar people, not stellar resumes. We are more likely to look at your social media footprint. What you say on LinkedIN, Twitter, Facebook and Viddler says a great deal more about you than a carefully-crafted resume. Look at it this way: do you trust a company’s press release, or how they interact with you on Twitter? See the folly of resumes in the new economy?
Want to get our attention? Write a personal note to us, brimming with passion, and tell us why you want to work with Eric Harr Social Media; tell us how and why you will super-serve our clients; tell us why you want to make a difference in our world. Do that and you leap-frog the competition.
Also, please have the chops. You’ve got to have the chops. We need social media supernovas. Pretenders need not apply. We believe that to be great in social media, you’ve got to engage in social media and make mistakes — and learn. Have a social media footprint, because we’re going to look at it. Eric Harr Social Media gives a significant portion of its profits to charity. We’re a high-horsepower social media agency, but we want good souls here.
It’s also helpful if you prove that you read this garrulous diatribe. Why? It means you care. And caring is everything in social media. We actually had one guy — and we are not making this up — call us and say: “Oh dude, I love Eric. I have seen him on TV and I’ve read his books. I am a huge fan of Eric Harn. I’ve always wanted to work with him!” Needless to say, “dude” didn’t make it. So, learning more about us — by reading this website — matters. Cleverly incorporate the word “cattywampus” into your letter to us and you’ll boost your chances of getting a job with us.
Bottom line: If you are creative and passion-driven; if you come from the heart; if you understand that our clients are everything to us and if you are fanatical about taking exquisite care of them; if you want to work with brilliant people in a relevant, expanding industry; if you want to make a tangible difference in our world; and, if you don’t wear your hat cattywampus, then we are interested in speaking with you.
