Here are some notes on my past work, from both within a larger agency and then on my own.

I've blinded some for obvious reasons, but I'm happy to supply references from current/former clients.

MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER [all publicly available]

Planned and managed the 2016 MLS Cup digital campaign driving:

  • 177% YoY increase in television ratings

  • +22 pt lift in awareness (FB Brand lift benchmark is +6.9)

  • +24 pt lift in intent to tune-in (FB Brand lift benchmark is +4.5)

    • 100th percentile of Facebook entertainment studies.

  • Internal DMA holdout measurement showed significant delta as well.

[PREMIUM BEER BRAND] FOR MAJOR GLOBAL BREWER

My team planned and managed brand's United States paid social driving continuous improvement in Facebook & Instagram MMM ROI results once taking over business in Q1 of 2016:

  • 2015-Q4 ROI: .43 (prior agency)

  • 2016-Q1 ROI: .89

  • 2016-Q2Q3 ROI: 1.74

This was achieved despite YoY increases in seven-figure social budgets (ROI and spend tend to move inversely). Also provided planning and drafted educational materials for client's media buyers in international markets.

 

Have a nice day!
