We Are Rosie wants people to work.
The marketing solutions platform was created in 2018 by former ad exec Stephanie Nadi Olson to provide freelance marketers with opportunities to create project-based work with the flexibility that comes with working remotely. In return, they would receive exposure to opportunities of working with major brands without having to upend their lives, in addition to receiving benefits that typically come with full-time employment.
In this episode of Campaign Chemistry, We Are Rosie managing director of creativity Marie Lamonica joins to spotlight the evolution of Rosie over the years, from navigating the uptick in layoffs and industry challenges to building an inclusive culture grounded in transparency and trust. The nontraditional employment structure is now powering a community of over 30,000 freelancers, affectionately referred to as “Rosies and Brosies.” Lamonica also shares career and life lessons learned from years of being a working mom in advertising and why failure can be a good thing.
