About Slickdeals:

We believe shopping should feel like winning. That’s why 10 million people come to Slickdeals to swap tips, upvote the best finds, and share the thrill of a great deal. Together, our community has saved more than $10 billion over the past 26 years.

We’re profitable, passionate, and in the middle of an exciting evolution—transforming from the internet’s most trusted deal forum into the go-to daily shopping destination. If you thrive in a fast-moving, creative environment where ideas turn into impact fast, you’ll fit right in.

Project Overview:

We’re looking for U.S.-based social media content creators to partner with us on short-form, deal-focused video content for Slickdeals.

This is a great fit for creators who are quick, comfortable on camera, and can turn around engaging, informative videos on tight timelines.

What You'll Create:

  • 40–80 second videos highlighting a specific deal or deal-related content (eg, shopping events, multiple deals at a retailer, deal categories, etc)
  • Shot either:
    • On camera (talking head)
    • With a simple background (green screen or deal imagery behind you)
  • Some basic editing is required:
    • No graphics
    • No lower thirds
    • No captions/chyrons
  • We will handle final editing and post-production

How it Works:

  • We provide:
    • The deal or topic
    • Key details / parameters (not a full script)
  • You create:
    • A clear, engaging, conversational video explaining the deal or topic
  • Turnaround:
    • Varies depending on content needed; sometimes as short as 6 hours from assignment to delivery, sometimes as long as a week is acceptable. Flexibility is critical.

Ongoing Opportunity:

  • Selected creators may receive up to 1–2 video assignments per week
  • Work is as-needed / at-will (no guaranteed volume)

Who You Are:

  • U.S. based creator
  • Comfortable on camera with strong presence and clarity
  • Casual, natural presence, credible, approachable
  • Able to quickly interpret direction and create without a full script
  • Reliable with fast turnaround times
  • Familiar with TikTok/Reels-style content (natural, not overproduced)

Nice to Have:

  • Experience creating UGC for brands
  • Ability to vary tone (urgent deal, informative, enthusiastic, etc.)
  • Basic understanding of what makes a “good deal” compelling
  • Understanding of what makes compelling content for different social media platforms

Additional Notes:

  • Final candidates may be asked to complete a paid test video
  • Content will be used across Slickdeals-owned channels (paid + organic)
  • We’re looking for creators who sound like a deal-obsessed friend—clear, helpful, a little opinionated, and straight to the point
  • Subject to background check 
  • $30-$150 per video, depending on experience and requested style of video
