Deel is a San Francisco-based financial tech startup. They received both Series A and Series B funding in 2020 and were looking for a paid acquisition marketer to help them reach their lofty growth goals.

Deel was looking for someone to rapidly implement and scale a five-figure monthly media budget across 5 different ad platforms. The goals were to acquire new leads to book demo calls with the sales teams, and also drive paid software signups through the website.

Deel is operating in a totally new and innovative financial space. They needed someone who could dive deep into paid acquisition analytics, but also consult on the best creative angles to speak to potential Deel prospects.

They were a small startup with a large in-person network, but not a lot of digital presence. They had just launched their website, but didn't have any marketing or understand a lot of the basics of running an e-commerce store.

I was brought on specifically to start and implement their email marketing as well as be a trusted advisor in all other realms of their marketing: social media, paid advertising, SEO, and UX.

Calian is a large B2B/B2G professional services company, publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange. When I started with Calian in early 2019, they had a Drupal 7 website that had been somewhat neglected and had technical issues, and the design and content were overall unimpressive, and not representative of a strong brand with an umbrella of highly specialized solutions. They were also lacking a social media strategy, appropriate analytics tracking, marketing automation and a modern CRM solution.

Cine packs was struggling to create profitable campaigns and often broke even for their digital products on Facebook and wanted to increase their ROAS to atleast a 3x. They also wanted to launch ads for their new eCommerce store to sell physical products. Moreover, they were not sure about tracking and needed someone to separate their free downloads from their paid downloads.
