selfpublishing.com is a back-to-back-to-back INC 5000 company & we're launching our Summer 2027 Social Media Internship Program . Our mission is to TRANSFORM THE LIVES of authors by helping them write and publish books, grow their businesses, and launch their author careers!
This is an in-person summer internship based in our Westlake (Austin) office. You'll create real content for two brands: selfpublishing.com and our CEO Chandler Bolt's personal brand. Your work won't sit in a folder. It gets posted.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll be part of the team that plans, films, edits, and ships content every week. Your north stars? Making scroll-stopping short-form content and learning exactly why it works. 🌱
More specifically, you'll:
🎬 Create original short-form content (Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts) for two brands: selfpublishing.com and our CEO Chandler Bolt's personal brand
✂️ Edit and repurpose existing long-form content, including podcast episodes and YouTube videos, into short clips for both brands
✍️ Write captions, hooks, and on-screen text that match each brand's voice
🎥 Help plan and film content in our Austin office, including behind-the-scenes, founder content with Chandler, and team moments
🔍 Research trending formats, sounds, and creators in the author, book, and entrepreneurship spaces, and pitch new ideas
📅 Schedule and post content across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook
📊 Track performance on your posts and share what's working in weekly check-ins
💬 Engage with our communities by replying to comments and DMs
What You'll Learn
🧠 How a real content team plans, produces, and ships content every week
🌿 How to grow a company brand and a founder's personal brand side by side, and how they work differently
🎞️ Short-form editing and storytelling that holds attention
📈 How to read analytics and turn data into better content
💸 How social media drives real business results
Who We're Looking For
Students studying marketing, communications, film, journalism, or a related field
You know how to edit, whether that’s on your phone (CapCut, InShot) or your computer (Premiere, Final Cut, or similar)
You’re a creator yourself, or at least deeply creative, and you love telling stories
You’re the person who’s always saving videos to recreate later or sending yourself hooks you like
You’re into entrepreneurship and business building, or you love reading, writing, and books (bonus if it’s both)
Self-starter who can take feedback and turn work around fast
Bonus: a portfolio, personal page, or any content you’ve made
