Email and CRM, search, content, and campaign design for software and creator brands. Seven years running growth in-house, now taking on a small amount of freelance work.
SIGNAL / OWNED CHANNELS
List growth, welcome and launch sequences, and campaigns built to be opened and clicked. I've scaled a list from 90k to 170k at a 25% open rate.
Search Console monitoring, non-brand growth, and the quick wins that move first. Reporting short enough that you'll actually read it.
Blog, newsletters, and the strategy behind them. Written to rank and to be read, not to hit a word count.
Channel and community growth. I took one brand's Instagram from 18k to 52k without paid spend.
Figma to Webflow. Landing pages, email templates, and campaign assets that ship and convert.
Brief, build, send, measure. I run the whole launch and pull the teams together when it needs it.
Grew a software company's list from 90k to 170k subscribers while holding a 25% open rate and 5% click-through, through lead-gen, segmentation, and lifecycle sequences.
Grew an audio-software brand's Instagram from 18k to 52k followers organically, with a content system the in-house team could keep running.
Built a Search Console workflow that separates brand from non-brand traffic, surfaces quick wins, and reports week-over-week movement the team can act on.
I'm JJ, a marketer with about seven years running content, email, and SEO in-house for a software company in the audio industry. I've led a five-person team and represented the brand at NAMM and NAB.
I also produce electronic music and I'm doing a PhD in it. That's where the channel-ownership instinct comes from: I'd rather build an audience you keep than rent one that disappears when the budget stops.
I take on a small amount of freelance work alongside my main role, so I'm selective about projects and I do the work myself.
