Key Responsibilities:
• Strategy & Implementation: Develop and execute effective performance marketing strategies across multiple channels. Manage the creation of lookalike audiences from our D1 retained user base. Coordinate with internal teams to decide the messaging for ads based on conversations with stakeholders.
• Data Analysis & Audience Mapping: An essential part of the role involves mapping our Day 1 (D1) retained user base to existing events on platforms such as Facebook, like the "Start Trial" event. This task requires the ability to analyze user retention data and strategically align it with similar behaviors or events on advertising platforms. For example, by understanding the characteristics and behaviors of our D1 retained users, the candidate will identify and target similar audiences who've engaged with the "Start Trial" event on Facebook. This process helps us to create highly relevant and targeted advertising campaigns, improving the overall efficiency of our marketing spend and contributing to higher user retention.

This could include suggesting enhancements to in-app UI/UX for better user engagement and devising new features or interactive elements within the app to boost activation.
• Experimental Marketing: Spearhead experimental marketing projects such as creating sidecar products like blog articles using ChatGPT with context from our app's polls. Conduct keyword research to identify low-CPC keywords and run search ads on Google for these articles to drive PLG (Product Led Growth)
Requirements:
• A minimum of 5 years of experience in performance marketing, preferably within the tech startup space or digital media industry.
• Proven track record of creating and executing successful performance marketing strategies.
• Experience with digital ad platforms such as Facebook, Google, and Snapchat is required.
