Here are some other things I’m looking for in an ideal candidate:

-INTEGRATIONS: sometimes email software like MailChimp, GHL, or API systems needs to be connected to the WordPress custom development.

-SPEAK UP! I know one of the difficulties is just speaking up if there’s a problem. If there’s a task you’re not sure how to do - please raise a hand right away so I can help!

-Codewords: please put the word “taco” in the subject line or first line of your application. This is to weed out candidates who haven’t read this ad, or who just skimmed the Upgrade to see actual infoually, about 50% of the people who apply will fail to do this, so if you’re reading this you’re already in the top 50% of candidates ???? ????

-ATTENTION TO DETAIL: Detail is very important in making sure all custom code is tested thoroughly and free of errors

-ONGOING EDUCATION: The world of Web Development is constantly moving forward, and being able to keep on top of the trends is important - so being able to adapt to different software and learn them is vital.

-COMMUNICATION: we communicate over slack and ClickUp. There will be weekly check-ins and regular daily communication. You would be responsible for checking in with the tasks you’re working on each day, and recording clearly what you did with each hour you worked.

-DEDICATED: it's very important to me that you are just working for us. Does it work for you to be dedicated here? It's fine if you want to start your own projects or products, we can offer you as many hours as you would like here, even above 40 hours per week if you are able, as long as that time is used productively for our clients.


At the end of the day, what I really want is someone who will take our client’s website development to the next level. We want someone who is forward-thinking and proactive.

You would be responsible for somewhere between 3-10 accounts at a time. This job is anywhere from 15-40 hours per week.

Please send over examples of other work you’ve done in WordPress, and Woocommerce CMS Development, we’re very interested in that. Looking forward to hearing from you!
