• Engage with relevant industry forums and online discussions to identify customer concerns and support positive customer experiences.
• Maintain consistent brand messaging and help strengthen customer trust.

Analytics & Performance Reporting

• Use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and marketing dashboards to evaluate campaign performance.
• Monitor customer engagement, retention, and lifecycle marketing KPIs.
• Prepare actionable weekly and monthly performance reports.
• Identify opportunities to improve campaign effectiveness and customer lifetime value.

Marketing Collaboration & Special Projects

• Collaborate with our Creative Content Specialist, website team, and performance marketing team to ensure campaigns align with business objectives.
• Assist with trade show coordination, marketing materials, vendor communication, and promotional outreach as needed.

• Experience with marketing analytics, A/B testing, and performance reporting.
• Ability to independently manage campaigns from planning through execution.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Ability to work on-site in Gallatin, Tennessee, Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM–4:00 PM.
