I might be one of your possible customers. I'm assuming you want some feedback?

- This: "Paid Acquisition experts" — I'm a newbie in this area, and to me, "acquisition expert" is an a bit complicated tech term. It's someone who helps me find more customers, right? Maybe "startup growth experts" would be a simpler word. Or, to avoid ambiguity, "Customer Acquisition experts". I actually googled for "what is an Acquisition expert" and the same job title, "acquisition expert" is apparently also used for financial consultants that helps out, when one company acquires another.

- This is slightly confusing to me: "Work with leading startups and brands." — are the acquisition experts startups they too? That's fine, I'm just feeling a bit surprised.

- The "Apply" button looks disabled. Bright gray. Change to Yellow? Like the Lighting above?

This looks fairly nice I think: (for the Apply button)

    background: hsl(48,96%,52%);
    color: white;
    font-weight: bold;
    border: none;
    font-size: 124%;
I applied. It's hard to get past the step "Are you a connsultant or part of an agency". I'm neither, but seems I have to select one, before continuing. People might give up here. ... eventually I noticed I can just scroll down though.

... Oops I clicked the wrong button. I clicked [Apply] but should have clicked [Start Growing]. ... This to me indicates there's a UX problem.

The homepage in general is focused on startups. Not people who want a job at your company. So Apply is confusing.

Rename it to "Apply for a job here" instead?

And place the "Start Growing" button first because that's what the main title is about, right.

Ok. Whilst filling in the fields ... "Shift + Enter for newline" is hard to see. Maybe let just Enter be newline, and let Tab be "next form field" — that's what people are used to? at least I.

.. Submitted :- ) (for this: https://www.effectivediscussions.org ) I wonder what'll happen now... and how interesting I will be to you — I selected < $5000 per month.
