- Design omnichannel, journey-driven media plans that support long sales cycles and multiple decision-makers across awareness, consideration, and conversion.
- Define how paid media works in concert with non-paid levers such as SEO, CRO, CRM, and sales enablement to support account progression.
- Establish ABM-appropriate measurement frameworks, incorporating account engagement, quality signals, and funnel movement in addition to traditional media KPIs.
- Analyze performance using tools such as Looker Studio, Tableau, Adobe Analytics, and platform reporting to generate insights and optimization recommendations.
- Synthesize data and performance into clear strategic narratives, helping stakeholders understand what’s working, what’s not, and where to invest next.
- Serve as a trusted strategic advisor to client stakeholders, leading conversations around media investment, tradeoffs, and optimization opportunities.
- Proactively bring POVs, insights, and recommendations informed by market dynamics, audience behavior, and category best practices.
- Partner closely with activation teams to ensure strategy is accurately translated into execution and maintained through ongoing optimization.
- Conduct market, audience, and competitive research to inform targeting, channel selection, and messaging alignment.
