Key achievements:
• Influencer marketing strategy and partnerships facilitated in the fashion, sports and entertainment industry: Steve Aoki, Floyd Mayweather, Snoop Dogg Jamie Foxx, Mr. Mature
• 0 to 150k organic monthly impressions on Pinterest within 6 months
• 26k engaged Instagram followers
• created a targeted fan group and grew it to 1k members in one month, now at 3k members; the results have been overwhelming: group members share great content (ie. wearing the brand's products), this "feeding us content" which in return is bringing continuous growth; we also started to monetize the group and gain direct Shopify sales from group members
• Created an automated way to receive customer tags, photos and videos. Now, about 50% of our content is generated by other users which means we get extra reach and impressions without added effort.

Our SEO efforts drastically boosted the performance of the site.
From increased user traffic to higher conversion rates, we gave the new company a much needed digital facelift.
Again, we have to stress the importance of understanding the company’s unique value proposition. Without it, you’re just shooting blind.
Because we understood what the company was trying to accomplish, every header, piece of copy, and URL was aligned.

By listening to local experts about their needs, experiences and country-specific nuances to inform my regional strategy, I was able to build the foundation of what is now the EMEA Google and YouTube standards and best practices for social and content production, scale programs globally that increased efficiency and awareness, and lead the strategies for tentpole moments that often exceeded global benchmarks.
The greatest impact I had in this role was empowering an under-resourced region of brilliant experts on sound creative strategies, ensure EMEA was a prioritised market for global and tentpole moments and set the tone for showcasing the impact truly global activations can have when the approach is both timely and geographically relevant in order to resonate with key audiences.

When we started working with the team, they were managing 20 accounts. Over the last three years, we have helped them grow this client base to over 50 paid media clients.
We have achieved this by listening to the client and using data to increase sales volume and the type and quality of each conversion they were delivering for their clients.

This included a feedback loop to ensure that data was continually optimized towards the best and highest revenue-generating keywords and ad copy.
In addition to the great KPIs we have delivered, we have also delivered a number of other benefits, including:
• Reduced administrative time by embedding automation using Zapier
• Standardized conversion tracking across all accounts for accuracy
• Landing Page suggestions to optimize conversion rates
• Implementation of a state-of-the-art budget management system
• Creation of standardized templates to ensure immediate performance gains with multiple predefined strategies based on initial performance.

Throughout the campaign I had to use my people skills to keep Steve and the client happy. For instance, the client wasn't happy with one of the portraits and no re-shoots had been included in Steve's contract due to his calibre. We got a flat out no at first but with some persuasion they agreed and re-shot that day. Despite all the content being shot, approved and going live within a week, I kept everything on time and it went live as planned.
With only a small PR budget we got 53 pieces of PR internationally with a circulation of 33.8 million. This was on top of Steve, and the other photographers, Instagram audiences who received the content extremely positively as it felt authentic to them. The client was really happy with the choice of talent as well as the results.

I was able to completely overhaul the Deel paid ads program. Before I joined, the Deel team had no conversion tracking or attribution solution in place on their website. I was able to build out a robust data infrastructure to help them identify and measure the entire user journey, and identify average customer acquisition costs by channel.
To date, we've scaled our monthly ad budget by 650% since August while maintaining a stable customer acquisition cost over the past five months. We've also dropped the CPMs of our campaigns by 25%, which is extremely impressive given the fact that the financial industry is one of the most expensive avenues for advertising online.
Deel continues its trajectory of rapid growth every single month. Paid ads remains the top lever for growth across the entire organization.

"We first started talking to Aaron when my company was very small, and not ready for a robust ad/marketing strategy. He called back once a quarter, over a two year period, with advice, patience, and encouragement. When we were finally ready to take the plunge, there was no doubt who we wanted to work with.
We set a small monthly ad budget, and from the very beginning, Aaron was professional and enthusiastic. He met with us regularly to discuss our business goals, and was genuinely excited about what we were doing and who we are as a company. Aaron also actually used our products personally and was truly invested in our mission as a company, which was very appreciated.
Business-wise, Aaron kept careful track of our numbers, always watching to see which ads were performing best, and helping us adjust things as needed. He knows his stuff when it comes to selecting audiences, measuring ROI, and all the nitty-gritty details that help make ad campaigns successful. He was always ready to communicate to us at our monthly check-ins exactly which campaigns had performed the best, what changes he had made or would recommend, and what else we could do to make our campaigns even more successful. Over a two year period, we more increased our ad budget more than 10x, because of the strong value it was creating for our company.
Working with Aaron was easily one of the best business decisions we've made, and is a key reason that our company will be listed as an Inc Magazine fastest growing company in America alumni in the near future."

Over time the social media accoutns grew and the brand was able to be featured in a few publications, highlighting their work, which then lead to receiving industry-related rewards.
Soon after work began, the brand landed an incredible contract, who heard about the brand through the publications and social media, in which the brand was hired for a 3 year period to build, design, and create new homes and cottages personally, for an entrepreneur.
The brand has since paused all social media and email aspects to take this project. However, they now have an email list of over 2,500 subscribers in which over 45% have engaged with the brand for upcoming projects and are securing their project dates.
