Is there a drip? When do we push out newsletters and who gets them? How do we get feedback from all our customers and how do we promote that feedback that we receive?
“Can you be responsible for our monthly content vision and execution? This covers getting and creating assets we need (via our people and agencies), as well as putting that content to work across various channels, owned and earned.
“We currently manually communicate with brand teams with our clients about our brandable space and dimensions, can you develop an art board or other solution that will be more self serve for those clients, and in general, can you be the person to work with those client groups ideating and executing on cool designs for our units?”
