The tax industry is extremely seasonal between January and April. You are selling a service people generally don't like doing, taxes, that they only want to think about once a year. TaxAct was a top 3 player in the space for online tax filers and I was tasked with optimizing Paid Search and eventually managing all other digital channels to optimize spend. Helping craft budgets, marketing plans, and execution was my duties while employed there.
We would utilize the off-season, May - December, diving into past in-season data to analyze insights to help craft a plan in line with goals for the following season. In-season we spent aggressively on the digital channels and optimized through creative and landing page tests. Working with top level executives, we kept marketing in-line with expectations towards season end goals.

Client was struggling with a business that had steadily decreasing revenue over the course of 3 years. This was sped up by the fact they went through an acquisition that wasn't integrating with their parent company quickly.
The client has over 5,000 SKU's, and a percentage of sales comes over the phone, losing performance insights.
One of the areas our client was struggling with was that they wanted to continually increase the ROAS targets; which was driving down spend and overall revenue. This was even more challenging, given some of the tracking challenges.
The client also didn't have a cohesive affiliate or promotions strategy.
