You'll provide recommendations to current and potential clients, as well as gather information needed to properly set up campaigns. This can include budgeting, bid strategies, ad objectives, keywords, previous campaign performance, client competitor information, customer demographic, geographic and behavioral targeting.</li><li><strong>Stay up to date on new features and options </strong>within each platform. They can change frequently so this includes attending webinars, consuming articles and media, and watching tutorials to understand new opportunities, optimize campaigns and seek resolution on any outstanding issues. Presenting what you learn to the broader team is expected so we can all improve for the benefit of our clients.</li><li><strong>Create Proper Campaign Structures.</strong> The Campaign/Ad Set/Ad level structure can’t be a mess. You’ll name these appropriately, and structure them to best achieve client objectives within their budgets, so we’re not competing with ourselves or getting buried in learning mode.</li><li><strong>Connect Everything.</strong> You will properly connect, tag, and link relevant website and e-commerce platforms to track the performance of campaigns. For example, if a customer sees a Client ad on Instagram, taps it, goes to the website, and taps a ‘Book an Appt’ button that takes them to Calendly where they book an appointment with our Client, you need to know how and show how that came from Instagram.</li><li><strong>Promptly Resolve Issues.</strong> Because you’re actively managing your campaigns, you’ll see alerts and<br/>notifications as soon as they appear, and you’ll promptly identify and resolve issues within Client campaigns, including any potential policy violations or appeals.</li><li><strong>Contact with Reps & Clients.</strong> You will be one point of contact for digital platform reps. Our Agency periodically takes video calls and emails with representatives from Google, Meta, TikTok, and other platforms. And occasionally, a Client will want a copy of a receipt from a Meta campaign (for example). You will handle these. Additionally, you will be involved with creating and sending Monthly Touchbase reports to Clients, keeping them looped-into the performance of their campaigns and how we’re actively managing them toward success.</li><li><strong>Confidentiality, Trust & Attention to Detail.</strong> You will have access to multiple credit cards and paid ad<br/>accounts. Your ability to keep this information safe, confidential, and functional is the highest priority. You need to have smarts and integrity while being organized, careful, and disciplined to double check before going live and to not get phished by scam emails.</li></ul><div><br/></div><div><strong>CRITICAL CHARACTERISTICS:</strong></div><ul><li><strong>Attention to Detail. </strong>You are the last line of defense before anything goes public that uses actual Client dollars. If you notice the copywriter made a typo as you’re entering the Primary Text at the Ad Level, ask about it and/or fix it. If you notice a video is the wrong length or aspect ratio, or has important text covered-up by platform danger zones, bring it up.</li><li><strong>Confidentiality & Trust. </strong>You will have access to multiple credit cards and paid ad accounts. Your ability to keep this information safe, confidential, and functional is the highest priority. You need to have smarts and integrity while being organized, careful, and disciplined to double check before going live.</li><li><strong>Patience</strong>. You are the last stop in the workflow before paid ads go live. This means that if the copywriter, content producer, or approval process ever falls behind in its deadlines, you’ll fall behind too (through no fault of your own). But the campaign will still need to go live on the quickest timetable, so you may have to execute late or short-notice action once the work gets to your desk. Honestly, this happens rarely, but patience and understanding are still key.</li></ul><div><br/></div><div><strong>WORK ENVIRONMENT:</strong></div><div>JoshuaOneNine believes our clients are worth a new creation, and we're shaping a community where businesses feel local, but never small.
