Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've scaled paid acquisition across Meta, Google, TikTok and optimized ROAS/CAC at $10M+ annual ad spend; you obsess over unit economics
  • You've built lifecycle programs (email, SMS, app) that drove 25%+ of revenue and measurably improved repeat purchase rate and LTV
  • You balance brand strategy with performance marketing; you can articulate why brand and demand gen aren't enemies
  • You thrive in hands-on, fast-paced DTC/e-commerce environments; you roll up your sleeves to execute GTM, not just delegate
Won't Work If
  • You only do 'brand marketing' and delegate performance/paid to others; this role demands you own both strategy and execution across channels
  • You need a large marketing team to feel effective; True Classic will require you to be a doer and builder, not just a manager
  • You're uncomfortable with ambiguity around company financials, headcount, and historical performance; the job posting lacks these details and you'll inherit unknowns
