Boksi handles the boring stuff so that brands and creators can focus on the fun parts of collaboration. The result: brands get the amazing & authentic content they've dreamed of, and creators get paid to work with companies they admire. As the Head of Marketing, I was in charge of Boksi's global marketing both towards brands and creators. I started the marketing function from scratch and ran a team of three. I led Boksi’s website & brand renewal projects, implemented HubSpot Marketing Hub, and did lots of work in the areas of graphic design, marketing analytics, sales enablement, copywriting, webinars, organic & paid social media, PR, SEO, SEM and event marketing – either by myself, supporting a team member or managing an external partner.

My main task was creating e-mail newsletters for our customers and newsletter subscribers for the Finnish and Swedish markets. The creation process included coordinating between various departments in order to get the material, brainstorming about subject lines and the texts, and a comprehensive quality assurance. I also did A/B testing in our newsletters and various analyses to improve our KPI's as well as some competitor analysis. Because of the close cooperation with different teams & departments I got a very broad view on marketing in general in an e-commerce environment.
