About FiNC
American democracy runs on outdated infrastructure. The way we find candidates, compare options, and coordinate action was built for the TV age—and now money and party gatekeepers control every step.
At FiNC, we’re building entirely new civic infrastructure for the digital age. Not another reform competing in the rigged game—we’re building the foundation that other solutions can plug into.
We’re doing this in two phases:
Phase 1 is happening now: The Digital Politics Hub, where frustrated citizens, candidates, movements, and journalists plug into one coordinated network outside the broken two-party system. We’re building people power, proving demand, and earning the trust and resources for what comes next.
Phase 2 is the end game: Digital Democracy—a citizen-owned platform where every candidate gets equal visibility, where Politician Report Cards give citizens real comparison tools, where the playing field is finally level.
This is how we take democracy back: by building new infrastructure where better choices are actually possible.
Our structure matters: FiNC is a cooperative-style nonprofit where team members aren’t just employees—they’re partners and co-architects in a mission to rebuild democracy. If you’re ready to help design the civic infrastructure America never got—and to build with citizens, not gatekeepers—we invite you to step in.
IMPORTANT: This involves DELAYED COMPENSATION – Please read carefully
To maintain our independence and avoid conflicts of interest, we are not accepting investors or financing that comes with strings attached. Instead, we are Crowd-Starting FiNC—building it together from the ground up.
We’re asking team members to contribute 15-20 hours per week during this phase, with all time tracked and paid retroactively once we become fully operational.
This model only works if you see it as a short-term investment for long-term rewards. Everyone who joins is a partner, receiving an ownership stake in FiNC. Our structure is similar to a Nonprofit Cooperative, moving beyond the traditional “employee vs employer” dynamic into something more collaborative and forward-thinking.
Please only apply if you’re open to this unique opportunity and ready to be part of something truly transformative.

The Role
You’ll be the day-to-day engine behind our outreach: keep relationships warm, nudge politely, move threads forward, and turn interest into scheduled conversations. Working closely with the Outreach Director and Founder, you’ll use our templates and strategy to personalize DMs/emails, track every touch in the CRM, coordinate scheduling, and ensure smooth handoffs.
Goal: steady appointments with allies across independent media, political groups, and alternative parties—with calm persistence and zero hype. Editing/clips are handled by our Content Producer; you’ll coordinate handoffs, not cut clips
What success looks like in 90 days
Pipeline hygiene: CRM up to date daily; no promising lead goes stale >7 days
Weekly cadence: ~10–20 quality touches (mix of nudges, follow-ups, and 5–10 new first-touch pitches) using our templates, personalized to each target
Reply rate: 10–20% on targeted outreach; below 8% triggers hook/template tweaks
Bookings scheduled: Target 4–7
Speed to schedule: average ≤5 days from “yes” to booked slot
Handoffs: all bookings get a brief to the team
Key Responsibilities
Maintain a segmented target list of indie shows, creators, and partner orgs; keep notes current
Send thoughtful nudges and follow-ups; move “interested” to “scheduled” with polite clarity
Personalize DMs/emails in a people-first, nonpartisan voice using our templates
Own logistics: calendar links, confirmations, reminders, reschedules, and post-call gratitude
Capture learning: best hooks, objections, allies to cultivate, and next steps
Report weekly: what moved, what’s pending, where you need a decision or draft
Who We’re Looking For
1–3+ years in outreach/booking, creator ops, partnerships support, or Executive Assistant work with external comms
Clear, concise writer who can mirror our voice and unique mission
Relationship-builder who respects boundaries and follows up with calm persistence
Systems-minded organizer who loves lists, receipts, tidy trackers, and on-time reminders
Nice-to-have: familiarity with indie media, grassroots orgs, or cross-partisan spaces; basic understanding of podcast/YouTube/X/TikTok workflows
