DIGITAL MARKETING & ANALYTICS

As a Digital Marketing & Analytics Manager for OC Sports & Entertainment, I led digital marketing for Anaheim Ducks Hockey Development, The Rinks Foundation, and Great Park Ice & FivePoint Arena. I also served as the subject matter expert for website analytics, overseeing Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for brands across the organization's portfolio.

LIFECYCLE MARKETING

I led lifecycle marketing processes using Oracle Eloqua and Eloqua Engage, generating over $1.4MM in ecommerce revenue across the company's product portfolio. I accomplished this through targeted customer segmentation, automated flows, and constant collaboration with product and program staff to identify and fix customer communications roadblocks.

The Rinks & Great Park Ice Welcome Automation

For this automation, I leveraged website traffic and direct - through site interstitials - traffic to sign up for a weekly newsletter for news and promotions. Leads then are funneled into a nurture automation of six emails that highlight specific offerings and programs. Eloqua segments are populated dynamically based on email interaction for further follow-up. Google Data Studio is used for reporting traffic to each website.

Anaheim Ducks Youth Learn to Play Lead Nurture

For this automation, which is referenced in the Integrated Campaigns section, I used Facebook Lead Gen Ads integrated with Eloqua to obtain new leads for Anaheim Ducks Youth Learn to Play. The main part of this automation is the filtering to exclude individuals who may have already signed up for a Learn to Play session, as well as filter/refer individuals who were better suited for First Strides, a program tailored more to learning to skate. Timespan for this campaign was a one-month active automation.

Digital Infrastructure

Campaign & Content Standardization

I served as the subject matter expert for Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for web properties across OC Sports & Entertainment, including Anaheim Duck ticketing and Honda Center. I implemented cross-domain tracking form the company's marketing page to transaction platforms like Daysmart and Ticketmaster to track marketing revenue. This process led to attribution of over $115MM to marketing channels, segments, and content.

Standardized UTM Implementation Across Platforms

I led the standardization of UTM tagging across The Rinks & Great Park Ice email, social media, and web channels which allowed us to categorize content based on type and determine our most valuable content. This allowed us update our strategies to invest more in higher value opportunities to increase engagement and revenue.
