Social Media Scout | $3-$5/hr + Bonuses & Residual Earnings
Confidential employer
THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL SOCIAL MEDIA JOB.
Are you the kind of person who can find almost anything online?
Do you know how to find real conversations happening in Facebook Groups, Reddit, ---------- , YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Quora, or X?
More importantly, can you recognize when someone is actively looking for help, join the conversation naturally, and make a useful recommendation without sounding like an advertisement?
TaskNuts is hiring Social Media Scouts.
TaskNuts is a U.S.-based home services marketplace that helps homeowners get repairs and maintenance handled while connecting contractors with real jobs.
We are building a human-powered organic customer acquisition team.
We are NOT looking for someone to create content calendars, schedule posts, grow followers, or spam links.
WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO
Your job is to find existing online conversations where there is already real intent.
For example:
A homeowner posts:
"Can anyone recommend a reliable handyman? I have several small repairs I need done."
A person asks:
"Does anyone know a plumber who will actually show up?"
A contractor says:
"I'm tired of paying for leads that never turn into jobs."
Your job is to find these conversations, determine whether TaskNuts is genuinely relevant, and participate naturally and helpfully.
You'll primarily be searching for U.S. homeowners who need home repair, maintenance, or improvement services. You may also recruit contractors when TaskNuts is actively seeking additional contractors in a particular market or trade.
YOU DON'T NEED TO BE GREAT AT EVERY PLATFORM
We actually prefer specialists.
Maybe you know Facebook Groups extremely well.
Maybe Reddit is your world.
Maybe you're great at finding communities on ---------- .
Maybe you understand TikTok or YouTube search and comments better than everyone else.
We are hiring multiple Scouts with different strengths.
Tell us which platform you are exceptionally good at.
PAY
Base Pay: $3 USD/hour
We are open to starting at approximately 10–20 hours per week during the initial training/performance period.
Scouts who demonstrate strong performance can quickly move to up to 40 hours per week.
But the hourly rate is only one part of the compensation.
You can also earn performance bonuses and ongoing residual bonuses from qualified homeowners and contractors you bring to TaskNuts.
HOMEOWNER BONUSES
$2 for each qualified homeowner signup with a verified property
$20 when that homeowner completes their first TaskNuts job within 60 days
$10 if their first completed job occurs after 60 days
$10 for each subsequent completed job
CONTRACTOR BONUSES
When contractor recruitment is open for the applicable market/trade:
$2 for each qualified contractor signup
$30 when that contractor completes their first TaskNuts job
$2 for each subsequent completed job
THE RESIDUAL OPPORTUNITY
This is what makes the Scout Program different.
Qualified homeowners and contractors you acquire remain attributed to your Scout account while you remain eligible under the TaskNuts Scout Program.
If a homeowner you recruited returns months later and completes another job, that activity can generate another bonus for you.
If you recruit a great contractor who goes on to complete many TaskNuts jobs, their future completed jobs can continue generating bonuses for you.
The goal is to build a growing book of TaskNuts users, not simply work hours.
Performance and residual earnings are not guaranteed and are subject to TaskNuts Scout Program qualification rules and continued good standing.
YOUR SCOUT PORTAL
Every Scout receives their own TaskNuts Scout Portal and unique referral links.
You'll be able to see:
Homeowners you've acquired
Contractors you've acquired
Qualified signups
Completed-job activity
Bonuses and residuals you've earned
Your referral links
TaskNuts Share Center resources
We handle the attribution and tracking so you can focus on finding opportunities.
WHAT WE DO NOT WANT
We do not want spam.
No fake testimonials.
No pretending to be a TaskNuts customer.
No fake U.S. identities.
No mass copy-and-paste comments.
No indiscriminate link dropping.
No bots or automated mass posting.
No circumventing Facebook Group, subreddit, ---------- server, or other community rules.
We want Scouts who understand how to become useful participants in online communities.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
You should have:
Strong written English
A good understanding of natural U.S. online conversation
Excellent internet research skills
Resourcefulness
Good judgment
An understanding of online communities
The ability to recognize real buying intent
The ability to work independently
A performance-driven mindset
Experience with social media, lead generation, community management, online research, or customer acquisition is helpful, but resourcefulness matters more to us than your previous job title.
HOW TO APPLY
Start your application with the exact words:
I FOUND THE CONVERSATION
Then answer these 5 questions:
1. Rank these platforms from strongest to weakest for you:
Facebook , Reddit, ---------- , YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Quora, X.
Which ONE are you exceptionally good at, and why?
2. A homeowner in a U.S. Facebook group posts:
"Can anyone recommend a reliable handyman? I have several small repairs."
Write EXACTLY what you would reply if you wanted to naturally introduce TaskNuts.
3. You are assigned St. Louis, Missouri and need to find homeowners actively looking for repair help. Describe 3 specific ways you would find these conversations using your strongest platform.
4. What accounts would you actually use to perform this work? Tell us whether they are existing personal/professional accounts, approximately how established they are, and whether you currently participate in U.S.-focused communities.
Do not create fake U.S. identities or accounts for this application.
5. You work 15 hours during your first week but generate zero qualified signups. What would you analyze, change, or test during week two?
We are looking to hire quickly and want Scouts interested in building a long-term position and a growing book of residual earnings with TaskNuts.
