3 years 4 months
Berlin, Germany
I believe that marketing is a powerful tool box that serves more than your growth. Marketing is what helps you understand your customers, establish as an authoritative figure in your field by publishing relevant content and create your brand identity. When your marketing grounds are strong, growth comes naturally. Here are what we'll do to build your strong grounds: Elaborating your data-driven and actionable strategy, reviewing your user journey with user psychology methods, planning your testing and CRO roadmap, structuring easy-to-manage, scalable and cost-efficient ads accounts (Google Ads, Paid Social), applying automation wherever it makes sense, identifying key cross-department projects, and more. I'm looking forward to know more about your project!
