I'm Zack - The Marketing Ref. Because we all need someone paying attention to the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Not only that, I leverage actual data and analytics to understand deeper and better what’s going on with marketing efforts so we can optimize more efficiently and achieve the best return we can.

Do you know if your marketing is working? Are your paid campaigns yielding the fruit they should be? Is your SEO dropping since that last Google update? Can you trust the data your team is getting? 

I provide independent data-first consulting, training, and support for your marketing efforts.

Marketing Consulting

As a data-first marketer I help companies define success and build a framework for measuring the wins and losses. Once we know the numbers, we can work on strategies to grow and be the champion.

Analytics & Measurement
It’s hard to understand wins and losses without keeping score. As a Google and Adobe partner, I help companies define a measurement strategy and implement analytics to track performance that leads to better processes and efficiency.
Search Engine Marketing
SEM involves both Paid Search (PPC) and Organic Search (SEO). They work together. Whether your company needs help in one or both areas I can step in to support. Our world is connected like never before and is changing daily, hello voice search. Leverage my expertise and knowledge to help you win.
Digital Strategy
Today’s economy is connected and so is your business. How does your website, your content, and email strategy work together? How can you drive social engagement while retargeting customers? Is your brand congruent? It should be.
Google Analytics
Google Analytics is a free (or paid with 360) tool that a majority of companies are using, but aren’t really leveraging to it’s full potential. I help make sure your team is setup for success and show you how to look at all the data so you can tell a better story.
Google Ads
Google Ads (formerly AdWords) is a must have to any championship rotation. There is a lot that can be accomplished so I help break down the various aspects and show your team how to be all-star advertisers.
Tag Management
Tag management is fastly becoming an integral part of any digital marketing effort. Measuring behavior, attribution, conversions, or content performance, tags can help. Google Tag Manager is a popular choice, and free, the other is Adobe’s Dynamic Tag Management product. I help with either.

Training & Coaching

Even the best players in the world need a coach with the eye on the bigger picture and to help get the best performance out of the team. I work with companies, entrepreneurs, and leadership to develop skills needed in today’s business playing field. Now drop and give me 50!
