Our Mission
To Light Up the Creator Economy with IZEAs
OUR CULTURE
This is the IZEA way.
Innovative
It all starts with ideas. We push boundaries, forge new paths, and bring bold solutions to the market—partnering with brands and creators in impactful ways.
Zealous
Passion is at the core of our culture. With energy, enthusiasm, and relentless dedication, we take on every challenge. We don’t just show up—we give it our all.
Exceptional
We go above and beyond in everything we do. The way we imagine, build, and deliver sets us apart. We don’t follow standards—we set them.
Agile
Change is constant. We adapt, move fast, and seize opportunities. We stay sharp, shift with intention, and thrive in what’s next.
Enjoy Work-life Balance (and Zoom-crashing Pets)
IZEA provides personal and professional development opportunities to help you thrive and grow. We want you to comfortably be your authentic self at work every day. And to introduce your pets on Zoom. We want to meet them very, very much.
Embrace Diverse Perspectives
Our team embodies, embraces, and encourages diversity and inclusion. We all benefit from having a welcoming environment for all—one where everyone on our team feels included, safe, and happy.
Build an Un-corporate Culture
No cubicles. No pleated pants. We are an open, fast-moving, free-spirited organization. You can speak your mind with our leadership team like you would with a friend. There’s never a shortage of laughter around here, from happy hour trivia to costume contests, and we always get the job done.
Care for Your Fellow Human
Each quarter, the entire company participates in a charitable #IZEACares activity to give back. We also encourage individual team members to engage in their passion projects and rally the support of other IZEA team members.
A Message From Our Founder
“When I first thought about starting this company I had a vision. My vision was that one day everyone would be a content creator. That was back in 2005, and a lot has changed. YouTube. Twitter. Facebook. iPhone. iPad. Snapchat. Our world has been transformed radically in a very short period of time. From students to grandparents, billions of people are finding their voice via the Internet. The vision is becoming a reality faster than I had ever imagined.
We are the pioneers fueling the democratization of information, entertainment, marketing and commerce. Our platforms fund the American dream for the next generation of artists, poets, film makers, photographers, thought leaders, comics, actors and musicians. What you do here will impact hundreds of thousands of people directly and influence the actions of millions more.”
