Marketing Director
CurrentAs the head of the marketing department for the largest locally-owned auto group in Louisville, KY region, I spearheaded various initiatives to enhance our overall market share and digital presence presence and reach our target audience effectively. This involved creating and executing specific, highly-targeted strategies across multiple digital and traditional consumer touch points, such as search marketing, display and remarketing, brand websites, SEO, social media marketing, and email/CRM marketing, broadcast, OTT, and print media. I prepared and followed strict marketing budgets, and coordinated brand strategies with external vendors, ensuring seamless integration and consistent messaging. I managed all aspects of our brand websites, adhering to state, federal and brand compliance processes, and designed compelling creative assets to enhance the user experience. Additionally, I oversaw a talented staff within the marketing department, fostering collaboration and ensuring successful monthly campaign execution. Through analyzing online consumer behavior using brand website traffic data, I gained valuable insights to drive our marketing strategies. I coordinated with traditional media vendors to achieve brand awareness through TV, radio, and print advertising efforts. I crafted a social media content calendar to coordinate campaign advertising initiatives, ensuring a cohesive and impactful presence across multiple channels. I acted as the main internal and external contact for all company communications, crafting press releases to effectively manage brand reputation and secure positive media coverage.
