About Simple Poll

Simple Poll is one of the most popular apps on Slack and lets users create simple polls and surveys that are fully native in Slack
Wilhelm created Simple Poll in early 2016 to improve his own workflow when working in Slack. Started as a side project and then grew up to be a proper company!
Over the course of a year, Simple Poll has millions of users (you will help us grow that number!)

We are a fairly early stage company! Currently there are three of us working on Simple Poll:

Tom (who represents half of our engineering team and spends his days architecting, building and iterating on the product)
Charles (who is in charge of Support, Sales, Business Development, and Compliance)
Wilhelm (me! I mostly spend my time writing code and doing all the many other things that need to get done)

We're a profitable, bootstrapped company (no external investment) and very much plan to stay that way!

We've never really had a very intentional approach to growth or marketing with Simple Poll, relying on word of mouth and a small number of distribution channels. As a result there's quite a lot of low hanging fruit with many things left to optimise and many opportunities to have a lot of impact!

We also recently launched a new product (Simple Surveys) within the Simple Poll app. This new product delivers drastically more value to our customers and we believe it has the potential to more than 10x our revenue. An intentional approach to marketing & growth is a key missing ingredient here, which is why we're hiring an experienced head of growth to lead this area of the business.

What you'll work on

The primary goal is to significantly increase our MRR and growth rate
- You'll have a lot of autonomy in deciding what to prioritise to further this goal
