• Experience marketing to small and mid-sized businesses, such as medical practices or home improvement contractors, through partner, channel, or co-marketing programs 

• Demonstrated experience building marketing programs from the ground up, with the ability to define strategy and independently develop initial creative briefs, messaging, and campaign content 

• Proven track record of delivering measurable marketing and business outcomes, including improvements in pipeline, revenue, or customer acquisition costs

• Strong relationship-building and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence partners across Sales, Product, Operations, Business Analytics, Compliance, and Brand 

• You have hands-on experience using AI tools to accelerate research, content development, experimentation, and campaign execution, and you're comfortable sharing effective approaches with colleagues.
