Hi, we're Zac and Jack, the founders of Terac. We want to talk to you directly, because you are the most important part of what we're building.
Terac is a community of experts. People who have spent years getting good at something specific and hard. The world is about to need more of you, not less. As AI takes on more of the world's work, the bottleneck shifts to the people who actually know what they're talking about.
Expert labor is the rarest resource in the world right now, and it is shockingly hard to find. The companies that need a growth lead's eye on a campaign that won't convert spend weeks chasing people, paying placement fees, and settling for whoever is available. Meanwhile thousands of qualified people are sitting with knowledge that no one ever asks for.
That gap is what we're here to close. Every project that lands on Terac is routed to the people who actually know the answer, on their schedule, paid fairly, and only when the work is verified. No middleman taking a cut of your time. No vague gigs. No chasing checks.
We care about every single person in this community. If you join Terac, you're not a row in a database to us. We read the feedback. We answer the emails. We will fight for you when a customer is being unreasonable, and we will be honest with you when something on our side is broken. The quality of this panel is our entire company, and we owe you a serious bar.
If you've made it this far, here is what we're asking: claim your profile. Put your expertise on the record. Let the world's most ambitious teams come find you for the work only you can do.
Marketing questions

Narrow specializations are often the most valuable, because models produce generic advice that fails in specific contexts. If you spot when a model's demand gen copy misreads MQL-to-SQL logic, or an affiliate attribution call would breach a publisher agreement, that judgment is exactly what training data needs. Specialists in any focused vertical are in demand.
Certifications like Google Ads, Meta Blueprint, HubSpot, or the AMA's PCM show you know the platform mechanics, policies, and terms, which helps you grade outputs against real rules. Hands-on campaign experience is the primary qualifier, but active certs signal current platform knowledge. Lapsed credentials are fine if your working knowledge is current.
Typically: evaluating a model's media briefs, campaign strategy, segmentation rationales, creative briefs, SEO outlines, or attribution explanations for logical accuracy. You may also write worked examples of a positioning framework, competitive analysis, or go-to-market plan so the model learns expert reasoning. The work is document-level and analytical, not execution inside ad platforms.
You evaluate outputs for quality, not publish them, so you carry no FTC disclosure obligation that attaches to live ads. Your expertise in FTC guidelines, ASA standards, GDPR consent, or CAN-SPAM is useful when the task is flagging whether a recommendation creates a real compliance problem. Terac never asks you to sign off as if it were going to market.
Yes. Brand and positioning expertise suits qualitative tasks: judging whether a brand architecture is consistent, a value prop is credibly differentiated, or a messaging hierarchy reflects sound Jobs-to-Be-Done reasoning. Performance and brand failures differ, and Terac needs both. Your grounding in Ehrenberg-Bass metrics, brand equity, or category-entry points gives the critical lens these tasks require.
Why your expertise matters
Today's marketing AI conflates persuasion with manipulation, misreads channel norms (a DTC email play is not a B2B nurture), and ships copy that breaks basic messaging hierarchy. At scale that burns ad spend and brand equity. Your sense of what a real buyer responds to, and what a compliance team would flag, is exactly the signal these models are missing.
How pay works
Rates toward the top of the $50-$140 band reflect depth: paid media strategy across Google, Meta, and programmatic, attribution modeling, or regulated-industry work under HIPAA and FDA promo rules. Work is fully remote, billed hourly, and paid only after your submission is verified. No retainers or minimums.
What the work looks like
A sample of the marketing and growth work you would pick up. Every project is scoped, remote, and paid on verified completion.
- Flag where a model's Google Ads structure misapplies match types, negative keyword lists, or Quality Score signals for a direct-response account.
- Catch where a model's brand positioning brief defines too broad an ICP, generic differentiation, or a broken messaging hierarchy for a mid-market SaaS buyer.
- Write a worked post-trial email nurture sequence with subject lines, send-time rationale, and segmentation logic.
- Note where a model's media plan sets unrealistic channel mix, CPM estimates, or frequency caps given current costs and audience overlap.
- Annotate a model's landing-page CRO critique where its recommendations conflict with testing methodology or above-the-fold hierarchy.
- Judge whether a model's influencer brief has adequate FTC disclosure, scopes deliverables, and sets benchmarks a creator would accept.
