What You’ll Need to Succeed

- Project & Time Management: You run a clean calendar and keep priorities straight. Competing demands don’t throw you.
- Results Mindset: Growth is the goal. You measure success by client business outcomes. You’re as comfortable speaking to business metrics such as LTV, CAC + profit margin as you are with marketing KPIs.

- Poised Under Pressure: You remain composed when the stakes are high and see obstacles as opportunities. You’re energized by diagnosing and solving problems.
