Bio

I started this journey to become the best digital marketer in the business so that I could understand the ins and outs—ultimately providing those around me with all the resources they need to grow. Sharing my experiences and mentoring those throughout their journey has brought me to find my passion. My role as a leader is to create an environment in which great ideas can happen while caring for and listening to those around me. As I've grown in my own career I've enjoyed helping people develop a clear vision for their career and create a plan to achieve their goals. I also thrive on helping them develop a growth mindset so they can overcome challenges and achieve their full potential.

I also tested different placements for the lead capture form. The results of the A/B tests were very positive. The conversion rate for the new landing pages was 6.9%, which is a 200% increase over the original conversion rate.

  • Email marketing

    Introduced MailChimp into the toolkit to focus on driving more efficiencies with marketing budget effecting items such as Send Time Optimization which increased our conversion rate by 3.9%.

I'm currently working on a neuroscience program at Harvard to continue to develop my coaching skillset in this area.

I also optimized the website for search engines by using relevant keywords and phrases throughout the content. I saw a 125% increase in organic web traffic. Also, I provided recommendations that increased web traffic 210% and sales MOM for a B2B SaaS start-up. Lastly, I managed 118 media relationships to drive earned media deliverables at another agency.

  • Microsoft Ads (Bing) logo

    Microsoft Ads (Bing)

    Reduced ad costs by eliminating under-performing campaigns, suppressing unnecessary ad spend, and reducing annual cost per conversion by $17/lead. I did this by adding Bing as a separate channel to test outside of Google Ads.

  • Buffer logo

    Buffer

    Buffer is so easy to use. Whether you are post scheduling, collaborating, or using the analytics. It's a great place for a small company to start to try and build out a social presence. I use it myself and have used it for clients in the past.

  • Meta Ads logo

    Meta Ads

    I've run advertising as well as organic strategies as well as managed team members running the platform. Facebook audiences are powerful if targeted correctly. The creative is critical to success as well as the analytics which I see a lot of people underutilizing. I see social audiences as a huge growth strategy vs. companies dumping it all into search. I've created, monitored, tracked, and iterated digital media strategy leading to 147% increase in social engagement.

  • Hotjar logo

    Hotjar

    I've used HotJar to drive Conversation Rate strategy decisions. Eventually leading to increased web lead conversion rates from 2.6% to 6.9% utilizing Google Optimize.

    HubSpot

    HubSpot is a great tool for businesses of all sizes to improve their marketing, sales, and customer service. HubSpot offers a wide range of features that can help businesses attract new customers, convert leads into customers, and retain customers. I've implemented closed loop reporting—mapping the buyer journey to sales for a Midwest Manufacturer. I've also suggested and managed the transition from a fully custom coded website to Hubspot, increasing department efficiencies.

  • LinkedIn Ads logo

    LinkedIn Ads

    I've done a lot of audits for companies specifically for LinkedIn. Many companies see it as a b2b focused channel when I've seen it be successfully developed for b2c as well. I've also helped coaches drive their social media presence along with executives trying to grow their audience.

  • Mailchimp logo

    Mailchimp

    Oversaw the implementation of Mailchimp A/B testing, dynamic content, tags and segmentation, behavioral targeting, predicted demographics to more strategically remarket to past customers, creating LTV.

  • Quora Ads logo

    Quora Ads

    Quora is a great tool for market research. I've done a couple qualitative studies regarding product research as well as market research on Quora. I've also used it personally to learn about specific topics of interest. It's underutilized in my opinion.

  • Semrush logo

    Semrush

    Love to use SEMRush to do keyword research outside of Keyword Planner. It's a great way to organize my research as well as keep tabs on specific items I want to track. Highly recommend adding this to the toolkit if you are getting into SEO or building SEO out for a company!

It's the unsung hero in my perspective!
