  • Audience signals and targeting layers
  • Landing pages and funnels
• Implement and manage tracking systems:

• Experience in one or more of:

  • Insurance
  • Home services
• Strong understanding of:
  • CPL optimization
  • Funnel metrics (CTR, CVR, CPA, LTV)
  • Bid strategy and Smart Bidding frameworks
• Ability to work closely with creative/landing page teams and guide direction based on performance
• Experience with lead generation funnels + CRM systems
• Strong analytical mindset and fast decision-making ability

What Success Looks Like
