As luck would have it, the lovely Laralelle has chosen to step down from Tower Voice to enjoy the joys of Motherhood. She has been amazing to work with and has been a real asset to the Marketing team and I am very sad to see her go. However, Ray could use a little help! Tower Voice isn't always the busiest of positions but it is a time sensitive position.
So, now we must find a new Voice!
Do you like social media? Do you know what that term actually means?
Can you effectively use all the functions of Facebook, Twitter, and other such sites? Are you able to be the voice of an organization on these channels?
Are you able to work with a partner (the co-Voice), and check in regularly to be sure that news gets posted in a timely fashion?
If you answered yes to the above, and are interested in a fun way to give back to and promote TarValon.Net, then please consider applying to be a Tower Voice.
Position Overview
The Tower Voices are responsible for maintaining our Facebook and Twitter accounts for posting relevant TV.Net AND fantasy literature news. Voices also ensure that our social media outlets are used to help promote TarValon.Net to a wider audience.
This position is also responsible for posting news content on the main site News on occasion. This position involves public interaction with both TV.Net members and the Wheel of Time fan community at large.
The Tower Voices report to the Director of Marketing. Please note that this is a shared position (to help post news at all hours of the day). Ray will still be one of our current Tower Voices, and the new Tower Voice will work closely with him.
Duties and Responsibilities
- Maintain our Facebook and Twitter feeds with relevant information (announcements from TarValon.Net; news from Tor and the WoT community; interact with fans as needed on Twitter especially)
- Research and implement new social media/content for TarValon.Net
- Work with the Graphics Development Team on any necessary graphics for news (i.e. Twitter themes, images for blog articles on the main site, etc.)
- Write and post articles for the main Site News where appropriate; generally WoT news and major site news
- Work with the External Marketing Coordinator and Director to help us reach new members via social media
- Check official email regularly to ensure that all site news posting requests are acknowledged
Requirements
- Must have been a member in good standing for at least 6 months
- Must be able to dedicate approximately 5 hours per week to this position
- Must be able to access the boards and Facebook/Twitter frequently. If you only check Site Announcements once a week, this position is not for you. If you're always online, perhaps you're a good fit. We need someone who will be able to post news promptly.
- Be interested in WoT news and the community at large -- whether that means you're also a member of Dragonmount, or you attend conferences, or you stalk Tor's Twitter account
- Excellent familiarity with social media platforms and strategies
- Good English grammar, spelling, and writing skills
- Able to work with a team and a co-Voice
- Ability/interest with social media analytics is a plus, but not required
- Skills with haiku or limericks might prove useful as well
- Ideal candidate will be in a time zone other than the co-Voice (Ray). Since our membership is global, News may not always be posted at the most ideal time for all members, but we do strive to encompass our diversity as best we can. Also, having the Voices in different time zones ensures that post attempts will not clash with/override one another. However, being in the same time zone will not exclude you from eligibility.
How to Apply
If you are interested in this position, please email marketing@tarvalon.net and keeper@tarvalon.net no later than MONDAY, MARCH 31. Please put APPLICATION - TOWER VOICE - YOUR TOWER NAME as the subject line. Please indicate how you meet the requirements above and why you are interested in the position.
