Retail Marketing Manager - Remote Fellowship
Listing checked September 18, 2026 · pay as published by Handshake AI
Overview
Handshake AI needs retail marketing and CRM professionals to shape how AI models handle real marketing scenarios. You will review AI-generated answers about promotional planning, customer engagement, and competitive monitoring, then flag gaps or errors from your own work experience. The project runs on a remote, asynchronous schedule, often about 5 to 20 hours each week when an assignment is active. No minimum hour commitment applies, and you do not need prior AI experience. Most tasks ask you to turn the tools you use at work into expert training data that improves model accuracy.
What You'll Do7
- 1Review AI-generated marketing answers and judge their accuracy against real retail and CRM practice.
- 2Write expert training examples that show how promotional campaigns, customer nurture emails, and competitor checks work in retail settings.
- 3Flag errors, missing context, or weak reasoning in model output, then explain the fix in clear written notes.
- 4Use your own experience with campaign planning and customer engagement to give concrete, practical feedback.
- 5Compare AI responses with standard retail marketing workflows and mark where they drift from accepted practice.
- 6Collaborate with AI research teams through async channels, with no fixed meeting schedule.
- 7Track your completed tasks and submit feedback within project timelines.
Requirements6
- 1At least 2 years of professional experience in retail marketing or CRM.
- 2Background as a Marketing Manager, CRM Manager, or an equivalent retail role.
- 3Direct work with promotional campaign planning, customer nurture email workflows, and competitive monitoring.
- 4Strong written communication and sharp attention to detail.
- 5Ability to work on your own across async schedules and with remote AI research teams.
- 6No prior AI experience needed.
Who Should Apply
The right candidate brings at least two years in retail marketing or CRM, with direct work on promotional campaigns, nurture email flows, or competitor tracking. A Marketing Manager or CRM Manager title fits well, though equal retail roles count. Candidates who lack hands-on campaign or CRM workflow experience often score low, even when their resume lists marketing titles. Another common rejection reason is vague writing samples that fail to show precise, independent feedback. People seeking full-time hours, steady management duties, or a permanent team role will find this project-based fellowship a poor match.
Salary Insight
This fellowship pays $80.00 per hour. That rate matches the project's need for at least two years of retail marketing or CRM experience. Pay ties to active project work, so your earnings each week depend on the hours you choose to take on.

Application Tip
In your application, name the retail marketing workflows you have owned, such as promotional campaign planning, customer nurture email workflows, and competitive monitoring. Add one quantified result for each, like campaign lift, list growth, or competitor response time, and state your years in a Marketing Manager or CRM Manager role. General marketing summaries without these specifics tend to score lower.
