Onsite Intern: Content Creation + Social Media Marketing and Strategy

Please note: Only candidates currently residing in or planning to reside in Phoenix will be considered. This is a hands-on content creation role, and candidates will be asked to produce sample videos based on provided prompts to demonstrate their creative approach, filming, and editing skills.About Us

Teaspressa is a female-founded, premium beverage brand helping people turn everyday drinks into something special. Our patented process brews tea like espresso, while our LUXE Mixer Cubes simplify specialty coffee, tea, cocktails, and mimosas, just drop, pour, and stir.

Our products bring together flavor, creativity, and thoughtful design, whether someone is making their morning latte, hosting a holiday gathering, or finding the perfect gift. Available through retailers including Anthropologie, Sur La Table, and Nordstrom, Teaspressa is a women-owned, minority-owned, proudly bootstrapped brand based in Phoenix.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a creative, hands-on intern who loves making content and understands how to turn a product into a story people want to watch.

Your primary focus will be developing, filming, and editing content that brings Teaspressa to life: drink demonstrations, seasonal recipes, hosting ideas, gift inspiration, everyday rituals, and behind-the-scenes moments with our team.

You’ll create both polished brand content and natural, relatable UGC-style videos for organic social media, paid advertising, our website, email campaigns, and retail marketing. This could mean filming a quick morning latte tutorial, presenting a holiday gift idea on camera, capturing close-up footage of a cube dissolving, or testing several opening hooks for an ad.

You should be comfortable appearing on camera, speaking about products, and working behind the camera to style, film, and edit. You’ll also support social publishing, community engagement, and influencer and affiliate partnerships.

This is a paid internship targeting approximately 20 hours per week. Content creation will be the priority, with other responsibilities assigned around campaign needs and available hours.

What You’ll Create

Our content spans coffee, tea, cocktails, mimosas, glassware, and accessories, with stories built around:

• Specialty drinks made simple: Recipes, tutorials, product demonstrations, and easy beverage upgrades.
• Hosting and celebrations: Brunches, dinner parties, girls’ nights, holidays, and seasonal gatherings.
• Gifting: Gift guides, unboxing videos, thoughtful pairings, and ideas for different recipients and occasions.
• Everyday rituals: Morning coffee, afternoon tea, at-home café moments, and small daily indulgences.
• The people behind the brand: Team personalities, product development, production, and life inside a growing Phoenix business.
• Our retail and hospitality partners: Product displays, demonstrations, and ways businesses can use or sell Teaspressa.
