About Nectar

Nectar is a marketing agency that provides account management and creative services

for established consumer product brands. Nectar primarily works with brands to scale

their sales on third-party marketplaces like Amazon. However, Nectar also develops

websites for its clients and manages their paid social and search along with their email

marketing. In addition to marketing and services, Nectar has its own analytics platform,

iDerive, which it uses to manage its clients' businesses and sells as a stand-alone

platform.

As a fully remote digital marketing agency, Nectar values culture and teamwork as well

as work-life balance. If you are a self-starter who likes to be supported by a team but has

the autonomy to do your own work, Nectar is the place for you.

We place a high value on transparency and honesty both internally and with all of our

client partners. We pride ourselves on ensuring that our employees have a manageable

workload in order to be able to deliver quality results for our client partners.
