About Chronos Agency

Chronos is a retention marketing agency that grows ecommerce brands through email and SMS. We plan, write, design and run Klaviyo flows and campaigns for DTC brands across beauty, skincare, home, outdoor and lifestyle, selling into the US, UK, Australia, Canada and beyond.

Our copy is built on direct-response fundamentals: awareness levels, customer psychology and a clear reason to act in every send. We hold every email to one standard — on-brand, specific, and written to convert.

The Role

You'll write the emails and texts that drive repeat revenue for our client brands. Strategists hand you a brief — the angle, the offer, the audience — and you turn it into subject lines, headlines, body copy and CTAs that sound like the brand and get the click.

You'll write across several brands at once, switching voices from playful K-beauty to clinical skincare to rugged outdoor gear in the same day. Expect a mix of one-off campaigns, automated flows (welcome, abandoned cart, post-purchase, winback) and SMS.

Key Responsibilities

• Write email campaign copy from strategist briefs: subject lines, preview text, headlines, subheadlines, body, benefit bullets and CTAs.
• Write and refresh automated flow emails (welcome, abandoned cart, browse abandonment, post-purchase, winback, sunset).
• Write SMS and MMS messages that fit tight character limits and compliance rules.
• Master each client's voice, product facts and guardrails, and never invent claims, offers or results.
• Produce subject line and angle variants for A/B tests, and use results to sharpen future copy.
• Work with designers so copy and layout land together — hierarchy, scannability, CTA placement.
• Take feedback from the Copy Lead and strategists, and turn revisions around within 24 hours.
• Hit weekly output targets across 4–6 client accounts while meeting every send deadline.
  
  
  

• 3-5 years writing conversion copy, with at least 1 year in ecommerce email or SMS.
• Native-level written English — clean, natural copy for US, UK and Australian audiences.
• A portfolio of live email or DTC copy you can walk us through, including what it was meant to achieve.
• Working knowledge of direct-response principles: awareness levels, benefits over features, offer framing, urgency done honestly.
• Proven ability to shift between distinct brand voices without losing quality.
• Comfort with fast-turnaround, deadline-driven agency work across multiple clients.
• Reliable home internet, a quiet workspace, and availability during agreed core hours.
  
  
  

• Hands-on Klaviyo experience (building or editing flows and campaigns).
• Familiarity with copy frameworks such as Eugene Schwartz's Breakthrough Advertising or similar direct-response training.
• Experience in beauty, skincare, wellness or home and garden categories.
• Basic understanding of email metrics — open, click and conversion rates, revenue per recipient.
• Experience using AI writing tools responsibly to speed up drafts without losing voice.
