When approaching the alignment of marketing strategies with growth goals, I would first conduct a thorough analysis of both current marketing performance metrics and the company's overall objectives. I would then formulate a targeted content and campaign plan that prioritizes both customer acquisition and retention, ensuring all efforts are measurable and trackable to adapt as needed.

My experience with content marketing includes overseeing campaigns that utilize SEO-driven articles, social media content, and targeted email marketing. I believe content is pivotal for engagement and conversion, and my focus has been to create content that resonates with the target audience while consistently reinforcing brand messaging.
