Manage the full lifecycle from outreach through negotiation, technical setup, launch, and initial optimization. - Influencer Program: Execute daily influencer outreach, managing personalized follow-up, negotiation, and onboarding. Run campaigns end-to-end from brief through content review, compliance, launch, and performance analysis. Coordinate with agency partners on briefing and content cycles. - Campaign Execution: Execute cross-partner campaigns including sponsored emails, banners, SMS, and table placements. Support product launches across all partners. Briefing, content creation, approval, and launch coordination. Own landing page accuracy including UTM configuration and CTA integrity. - Performance & Reporting: Track CAC, conversion rates, and partner-level performance. Provide weekly insights and recommendations. Conduct competitive research and listing audits.
