Guys, this is a startup. They hire 25 year olds with 3 years accounting background as CFOs for $75k.
Titles aren't the same everywhere, and this job isn't expecting someone like you, it's expecting you 10+ years ago. It can't afford anything more but needs the work done, so it hires the best it can. Someone cheap and hungry. Same as any startup

Actually he was just a glorified Personal Assistant. And the CEO was 33.
Overruled.
Nothing screams “premium e-commerce” like job posting on Craigslist.
“Hungry” “grow with us” = you’ll be underpaid and overworked
Chief
You lost me at Craigslist.
This is not a Creative Director job. The description seems to be for a social media video content writer/producer/editor. Not to say that makes it any better, but they don’t actually know what they’re even asking for.
Subscriptions for things, the "Netflix of X" is a hook.
Go to Mott and Bow. There's no technology powering this to excited VCs. VCs aren't investing heavily into d2c brands without them being unique. Like allbirds, with it's special materials. Warby Parker with it's philanthropy.
Trust me, Mott and Bow does not have much VC money. If they did, they would not be looking to underhire.

Throw me a link. I’ll take it way too far and post for your amusement.

Done! https://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/med/d/new-york-creative-director-storyteller/7159404320.html
100k? In NYC I’d imagine closer to 200
Yeah, I’m woth P1. All the CDs I know make way more than 150k
Earning 50k, will anyone feel like they’re a director of anything? Companies should either pay up or be realistic about the role.
Rising Star
And this one, non paid. Gross.
Rising Star
Hmmm, that would be a nice exit strategy.
This is, like, 5.5 80-120k jobs. Strategist, photographer/editor/AE artist, creative director, and copy writer.
Or, it's a dream job for a recent grad at a company with fewer than 20 employees that does about $20M in revenue
They're not going to get the best employee. They know that. But they have needs without having money.
Chief
If that’s only 100k more than a CD makes, someone lies to me and I need a new career.
Curious: is this happening more often during the pandamic or is this just business as usual?
Rising Star
@AD1 - It’s not solely a creative issue. Lots of other professions, people try to take advantage.
Chief
Welcome to Pandemic salaries. I bet they have 300 applicants.
I mean. They posted their job on Craigslist so they’re beyond saving at this point.
