About The Position

Driving our clients’ success and happiness by helping them meet their business goals is at the heart of the Client Success Manager role. We do this by understanding and facilitating a client’s needs in the digital and traditional marketing space. You will lead their ongoing marketing strategy to ensure that their marketing campaigns hit the ground running. Through intentional strategy and nurtured relationships, client retention and continued growth is always a priority. Because Client Success Managers touch every marketing service we offer, being an agile, team player is critical.

Requirements

Intuitive Communication: You will be a client’s primary point of contact and responsible for relaying updates to our team; you must be personable, professional, and responsive. There is an intuition needed in this role to differentiate between moments when an email will suffice and when you need to pick up the phone. You’ll also be responsible for coordinating with Project Managers to ensure a seamless transition from project completion to marketing launch.
Knack for Relationship Building: Building trust with your clients is the foundation for a successful relationship. You must have a knack for connecting with clients on a personal level, nurturing relationships, establishing yourself as an advocate for their success and an extension of their team. Best of all, you enjoy it, too! Through consistent communication and genuine understanding for each client’s needs, you’ll build rapport that fuels account retention.
Obsessive Attention to Detail: Client Success Managers guide feedback and traffic marketing updates between clients and team members. You will share accountability for the accuracy and quality of our company’s work. Attention to detail is crucial, so please include the title of your favorite movie or book at the beginning of your email or application.
Expert Organization: If someone asks you to describe yourself and you wouldn't say "organized," you need not apply. Client Success Managers must be organized and on top of all client needs, acting as an account manager to oversee launch deadlines and facilitate campaign updates. You will need an exceptionally strong ability to multitask and prioritize accordingly, keeping track of outstanding assets and tasks.
Keen Analytical Skills: We measure everything we do by its ROI. You will need a deep understanding of marketing metrics and KPIs, along with the ability to dissect and solve problems through data. Along with specialists on the team, you will supervise clients’ campaign performance and you are able to determine when it’s time to pivot away from efforts that aren’t fruitful vs. when to double down on a campaign with killer ROI.
“Big Picture” Thinking and Knowledge of Digital Marketing: Clients will ask questions about their digital marketing (particularly SEO, PPC, and social media) and website content, and every service we offer ties into the next. We need someone who can see the connections and make good choices for both the client and the agency as a whole. Presenting marketing strategy decks, you’ll need to be able to tell a story that describes how our team of specialists will help achieve the client’s goals through tactical marketing efforts.
Understanding of Local Marketing and Advertising: Offline and traditional advertising strategies still play a part in our client’s marketing plans. You will be responsible for facilitating the placement of print, radio, or television advertising; event marketing; and local business partnerships, backed by an understanding of demographic data that varies from market to market.
Resourceful and Confident Self-Starter: Once you learn the ropes, we’ll expect you to own your accounts to keep campaigns on track. You will need to take the initiative to make decisions and recommendations, and to follow up with clients to progress projects and maintain successful relationships. You will solve problems every single day, so we need someone with a solutions-oriented mind.
Takes Pride In Work: We need someone who takes any project, big or small, and puts everything they have into it. Mistakes are okay. Sloppiness is not.
Personality Musts: Our perfect fit is someone who is a problem solver who understands the difference between “yes, and…” and “yes, but…”. You should be a hungry, scrappy personality with a positive attitude and aims to deliver. Working in the client service industry can mean going the extra mile, and we need someone who is always willing to rise to the occasion for our clients and strives to put forward beautiful work that exceeds client expectations. Someone who is detailed and organized, driven and displays vigor and comes ready to play every day. Confidence, self-discipline, and a congenial, curious mind are things we love and admire.
