About the Role
The Marketing Manager will own Starbond’s direct-to-consumer growth engine across paid acquisition, retention, lifecycle marketing, content, SEO, answer engine optimization (AEO), social media, conversion optimization, and agency performance.

- Establish acceptable CAC thresholds by product, customer segment, campaign, and channel, and recommend when to scale, restructure, reduce, or discontinue investment.
- Align advertising, creative, landing pages, offers, product positioning, inventory availability, and operational readiness.

- Maintain a clear and consistent LTV methodology using customer revenue, purchase frequency, retention, gross margin or contribution margin, and cohort data.
- Analyze LTV and retention by acquisition source, product, cohort, and customer segment, and use the findings to improve channel and offer decisions.
- Lead strategies that improve repeat purchase rate, purchase frequency, average order value, cross-sell, replenishment, retention, and win-back performance.
- Oversee email and lifecycle marketing quality, segmentation, deliverability, revenue contribution, and customer communication accuracy.
Paid Advertising and Conversion
- Oversee paid media strategy, budget pacing, campaign structure, audience strategy, creative testing, attribution, and landing-page performance.

- Review performance at the channel, campaign, audience, creative, product, and cohort levels.
- Partner with the Web Developer on Shopify priorities, site performance, conversion rate optimization, tracking, and quality assurance.
Agency and Vendor Management

- Use agency scorecards and recurring performance reviews to track KPI attainment, SLA compliance, output quality, timeliness, efficiency, and business results.
- Require root-cause analysis and time-bound corrective action plans for missed targets, SLA breaches, quality issues, reporting gaps, or inefficient spend.
- Independently validate agency recommendations and recommend contract expansion, renegotiation, reduction, replacement, or termination when appropriate.
- Ensure Starbond retains access to and ownership of advertising accounts, data, dashboards, creative files, documentation, and intellectual property.
Content, Creative, and Brand
- Maintain an active content and creative pipeline supported by clear briefs, owners, deadlines, QA standards, and success metrics.
- Ensure reliable content-production support is available when external resources are required.
- Create a structured process for testing creative concepts, hooks, formats, messages, offers, and calls to action.

- Make timely recommendations regarding training, role clarity, workload changes, reassignment, or other performance actions when standards are not met.
- Create and maintain marketing processes, approval flows, reporting definitions, campaign documentation, and quality-control systems.
- Maintain a weekly marketing scorecard that distinguishes leading and lagging indicators and explains what changed, why it changed, and what action is required.
- Proactively escalate material risks and present concise, financially grounded recommendations to the CEO.
What Success Looks Like
- Marketing data, forecasts, campaign reports, creative briefs, and recommendations are accurate, validated, and financially grounded.
- Campaigns, agency deliverables, reports, corrective actions, and launches are completed on time, with blockers escalated early.CAC, LTV, LTV:CAC, MER, ROAS, contribution margin, retention, and cohort performance are consistently defined and used to guide decisions.

About the Role
Antier Solutions is looking for a mature, highly capable, and comprehensive Marketing Manager to lead our global marketing department.
In this role, you will act as the anchor and orchestrator for our entire marketing ecosystem. You will be directly responsible for managing, mentoring, and scaling a diverse in-house team of Content Writers, Social Media Marketers (SMM), Performance Marketers (PPC), Community Managers, and SEO Specialists.
We need a leader who can take broad business goals from the leadership team and translate them into actionable, high-yielding marketing campaigns. The ideal candidate must possess the unique ability to manage both creative minds (Writers/Designers) and data-driven analytical profiles (PPC/SEO), aligning them to drive predictable inbound leads.
Prior experience in high-performance IT services or B2B tech companies is highly preferred.
Key Responsibilities
1. Team Leadership, Workflows & Resource Management
Cross-Functional Alignment: Oversee the daily operations of all marketing sub-departments (Content, SMM, PPC, SEO, and Community). Break down departmental silos to ensure smooth, agile collaboration.
Process Standardization: Design and enforce structured workflows using internal project management tools. Establish clear KPIs, content delivery calendars, and campaign turnaround timelines (SLAs).
Resource Optimization: Manage internal team bandwidth effectively. Balance the workload of writers and designers to ensure high-quality output without execution bottlenecks.
2. End-to-End Inbound Strategy & Lead Generation
Campaign Architecture: Design, execute, and monitor comprehensive multi-channel inbound marketing strategies tailored for global enterprise clients (B2B).
Funnel Optimization: Take ownership of the marketing automation tech stack to build lead-scoring models, behavioral email nurturing, and landing page optimization.
Paid & Organic Balance: Supervise paid acquisition strategies (Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Meta Ads) managed by the PPC team, ensuring they complement the long-term organic growth driven by the SEO and Content teams.
3. Core Marketing Operations (Budgeting & Analysis)
Budget ROI Allocation: Plan, allocate, and manage the monthly and quarterly marketing budget across paid ads, software tools, and external resources, ensuring minimum leakage and maximum ROI.
Competitor & Market Intelligence: Conduct ongoing competitor mapping and trend analysis in the tech service sector to keep Antier's positioning ahead of the market.

Community Engagement: Guide the Community Managers to design retention and engagement strategies that turn users/followers into active brand advocates.
5. Analytics & Leadership Reporting
Data Consolidation: Build and maintain unified tracking dashboards (using GA4, CRM data, and platform metrics) to get a clear picture of marketing performance.
Executive Reviews: Present deeply analytical weekly and monthly reports to the Management, focusing on metrics like Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), pipeline velocity, and conversion rates.

Help new products find their first customers in the US, and teach our systems how you do it.
Daemon Ventures is a US technology company that builds and runs internet businesses with a very small team and heavy use of AI. We are looking for a growth lead who has personally taken products from zero to their first paying customers in the US market.
What you'll do
- Review how each new business goes to market: the plan, the actual ads, landing pages, emails and sign-up flow, and the numbers that come back. Say clearly what to change, and why.
- Diagnose. When a number is bad, work out whether the problem is the audience, the offer, the page or the channel, and what to try next.
- Turn what works into repeatable playbooks, so every future launch starts from what the last one learned.
- Bring in specialists (search, outbound, paid social, communities, marketplaces) when a problem needs deep craft, and judge their work.
Who you are
- Senior and hands-on. 6–10 years in growth or marketing, at least 3 of them personally acquiring US customers for a software product, an app or an online business. You ran the channels yourself, not only through agencies or a team.
- Taken a product from near zero to real US traction, with numbers you can show.
- A diagnostician. You can read a funnel and find the leak, and you think in experiments. You read results honestly, including when the answer is "this channel doesn't work for this product."
- A clear writer. You explain your reasoning so that others can act on it.
- Energized by working alongside AI. Most execution here is automated; your judgment is what makes it better.
Details
- Full-time and remote within India, engaged as an independent contractor.
- ₹45–55 LPA based on experience, plus equity.
- Process:
- A short application with a 20-minute exercise.
- A conversation with the founder.
- A second conversation.
