Conversion & Lifecycle Marketing
Optimize free-to-paid conversion funnels in close partnership with Product and Product Marketing
Implement foundational lifecycle marketing (email, in‑app messaging) to drive activation, engagement, and upgrades
Identify friction points in onboarding and activation flows; design and test improvements
Community & Creator Programs
Grow and steward community initiatives (Discord, creator programs) that turn users into advocates and evangelists
Develop playbooks for user‑generated content, creator showcases, and organic amplification
Build the foundation for community‑led growth with plans to hire dedicated support as programs scale
