Upstate Auto Styling is a fast-growing auto styling shop in Spartanburg, SC. We do window tint, paint protection film, ceramic coatings, and we’re launching mobile detailing. We’re looking for a Social Media Content Creator Apprentice to help us turn our daily work into short-form content that blows up Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
If you live on Reels / TikTok and love filming and editing cars, keep reading.
What You’ll Do
- Be in the shop several days per week filming real jobs: tint, PPF, ceramic coatings, details, before/afters, customer reactions, behind-the-scenes.
- Turn that footage into at least 10 short-form clips per week (Reels / TikToks / Shorts).
- Edit vertical video for IG Reels, TikTok, and YouTube (hooks, captions, on-screen text, trending audio where appropriate).
- Write simple, clear captions and post from our accounts.
- Coordinate with the owner on what to film each day and which offers to highlight (especially ceramic coatings and higher-ticket services).
- Track basic performance: views, saves, shares, and which content brings in leads.
What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)
- Consistently publishing 10+ quality clips per week, on time.
- Our feeds show: satisfying installs, transformations, education about tint/PPF/coatings, and the personality of the shop.
- You can come into the shop, know what to film, get it edited, and uploaded without hand-holding.
- We see clear “found you on IG/TikTok/YouTube” mentions from new customers.
What We’re Looking For
- You already make short-form content (even if it’s just for fun) and can show examples.
- Comfortable filming on a phone and working around customers and techs in a live shop.
- Basic editing skills in CapCut, VN, Premiere, or similar.
- Reliable, coachable, hungry to learn marketing, not just “go viral.”
- You care about making more content, better content, consistently. [$100M Leads, Page 155]
