Converted media briefings into holistic plans by using audience insights, previous learnings and tune-in study results to determine which platforms and audiences to allocate budgets for new and returning titles. One example was analyzing the Samba tune-in study learnings from Survivor 44 to encourage a broader reach on TikTok by implementing Top Feeds for the Survivor 45 premiere, resulting in a 123% increase in premiere week impressions between seasons.
Pitched high impact placements and offerings to the client via media presentations, leading to first-time implementations of takeovers across Reddit and TikTok for titles such as Survivor and 60 Minutes.
Managed a total 5.6 million in combined spend through standard and high impact campaigns across TikTok, Meta, Snapchat and Reddit. One key highlight was my recommendation of IG Reminder Ads which created a first time mid-funnel strategy on Meta, leading to 14k opted-in reminders across 2 campaigns and a benchmark CTR for initial learnings.
Translated complex datasets into digestible client-facing reports and provided recommendations to improve upper and mid funnel metrics.
Set up a total 18 brand lift and tune-in studies across Meta, TikTok and Snapchat; the results of which allowed us to adopt new strategies for returning shows by gearing towards platforms with the strongest brand recognition.
Gave walkthroughs on the Reddit and Snapchat ads manager APIs which raised team confidence in the platforms and their nuances. This resulted in Reddit and Snapchat being included on more client plan proposals and a respective 138% and 176% increase in platform spend between Q3 and Q4.
