    • Call handling quality
    • Script adherence and optimization
    • CRM data integrity (e.g., Salesforce, Litify, Filevine, HubSpot)

  • Treat intake as a revenue function, not admin support

Agency & Vendor Management

  • Lead selection, evaluation, and accountability of:
    • Digital agencies
    • SEO vendors
    • Creative partners
    • Media buyers
  • Hold vendors to clear performance metrics
  • Eliminate vendor dependency; maintain internal visibility into all data

Compliance & Risk Management

Leadership & Team Development

  • Create clarity between strategy, execution, and accountability

Required Experience & Qualifications

  • 10+ years in marketing leadership, with direct responsibility for revenue outcomes

  • Deep expertise in performance marketing and attribution
  • Proven success managing multi-million-dollar ad budgets
  • Strong understanding of intake operations and CRM systems
  • Comfortable presenting performance data to partners and executives

What Success Looks Like (12–18 Months)

  • Strong alignment between marketing, intake, and legal teams
  • Vendors held accountable—or replaced
  • Brand recognized as credible, trustworthy, and differentiated in the market

This Role Is Not For

  • Brand-only marketers with no revenue accountability
  • Leaders who rely blindly on agencies
  • Anyone uncomfortable being measured by hard numbers
