  • Monitor and report on campaign performance daily and weekly, identifying trends and actionable insights.
  • Ensure proper tracking and attribution (UTMs, pixels, offline conversions, Salesforce/Marketo sync).
  • Manage and QA all campaign builds following standardized naming conventions and governance frameworks.
  • Partner with Creative and Content to develop ad variations tailored to audience segments and funnel stages.
  • Collaborate with Analytics and RevOps to ensure visibility into lead quality, pipeline contribution, and ROI.
