  • Growth Strategy & Experimentation Development and management of a structured testing roadmap focused on acquisition, conversion rate improvement, and retention—ensuring learnings compound over time.
  • Team Direction & Enablement Clear guidance for internal teams on execution standards, priorities, and workflows so efforts stay aligned to performance goals (training only where it meaningfully improves output).
  • Performance Metrics & Reporting Regular reporting and analysis across core KPIs including conversion rate, CAC, ROAS, LTV, and pipeline or revenue contribution—translated into clear actions, not just dashboards.
Expected Timeline:
  • Minimum Engagement: 3–6 months
  • Meeting Cadence: Weekly or bi-weekly leadership calls, plus on-demand support
Typical ROI:
  • Short-Term Gains: Quick wins from improved targeting and personalization -often a 10–20% uplift in leads or sales within the first quarter.
