Dirty Roots Berlin

Art & Culture

Dirty Roots Berlin is an art studio blending contemporary art, vintage, culture, content creation, and plant care — all guided by our "Leave it the Fuck Alone" philosophy.

Berlin, Germany

Build the deal pipeline for a plant brand with about 280,000 followers: publishers, partners, sponsors and B2B clients.

Dirty Roots Berlin is a plant-education brand and creative studio: handmade sphere planters, a book (Leave It the F*** Alone), short videos, a blog and a members club, all built on one idea: most plant advice is noise, so observe more and intervene less. A small studio run by the founder with a rotating team of interns, so you work on real things that ship.

What you will do

  • Publisher outreach for the second edition of our book: target list, pitches, follow-ups, tracker.
  • Partnership and collab pipeline: brands, plant shops, studios, event partners.
  • B2B leads for plant-care services: offices, studios, architects.
  • Sponsorship and affiliate conversations that fit the audience.
  • Market and competitor research as one-page briefs; keep the CRM and the weekly numbers.

What you will learn

An outbound pipeline from list to reply, publisher and partnership deals, small-brand unit economics, and proposals people answer.

Who you are

  • Business, marketing or management student.
  • Writes clear English emails and is fine with rejection.
  • Organised: you keep a tracker without being asked.
  • Remote or a mix works.

Practical: unpaid, built for Erasmus+ traineeship grants (we sign the learning agreement and issue the certificate). 2 to 6 months. English B2 or better. Direct daily contact with the founder.

Apply through the platform. Shortlisted applicants get a 15-minute video call.
