Account Strategist (Remote)
Hello, fellow creative! Despite the economic downturn and mass layoffs in the tech industry, our agency is growing and we're looking for an experienced Account Strategist (remote) with a proven ability to guide clients on their digital marketing journey.
This is a remote position; however, you're welcome to work at our HQ in downtown Victoria if you prefer. If hired you'll need to come to our Victoria office for 1 week of onboarding and training.
You have a passion for digital marketing, analytics and inside sales. You understand omni channel branding and customer acquisition strategy for established B2B tech brands. You can also switch gears and guide a startup from no web presence to the first customer. You're obsessed with analytics, attribution and the customer journey and you'll use this data to make strategic recommendations to clients to help them start and scale brand awareness and demand generation. You use data to deliver strategic recommendations and you're not afraid to pitch and upsell current clients on One Net's growing list of services. Most importantly, you're proactive and service-oriented and you place enormous value on proactive relationship management and helping our clients succeed.

What you’ll do
At its core, your job is to identify opportunities for our current clients to increase brand awareness, leads and customers. You'll then pitch the client on relevant services from One Net. This is a proactive, self-driven role meaning the client won't be asking for these services. As such, it will be your job to identify growth opportunities and create pitches to convince our clients why we're best equipped to execute on your recommendations.
- Identify opportunities to help our clients grow their brand and increase leads across multiple channels including SEO, content marketing, paid media, social, influencer, email and affiliate
- Proactively pitch growth ideas to clients using data, competitor analysis and market trends. E.g., explain how ChatGPT opens the door for high-velocity blogging. E.g., show how Netflix's new free tier opens the door for pre-roll video ads. E.g., explain how Google's "helpful content system update" opens the door for topical SEO. E.g., show the client they're paying $3,700 per lead from LinkedIn Ads and recommend more cost-effective advertising channels

- Help clients make sense of their MarTech stack. E.g., help clients identify what keywords drive MQLs. E.g., show clients how many touchpoints a prospect has before completing a lead form
- Prepare and confidently present beautiful proposals
- Conduct proactive quarterly check-ins to ensure the things we make (videos, sites, campaigns) are generating results for our clients
