Performance Tracking

• Internet Native: You’ve lived on Social Media. You understand meme culture, viral mechanics, and how to spot a trend before it peaks.
• Growth‑Obsessed Mindset: You understand that distribution is king. You’re comfortable testing multiple pitches and formats rapidly, killing what doesn’t work, and scaling what does.
• Tech‑Savvy: You’re comfortable with analytics tools, automation software, and modern marketing stacks. You love finding efficient ways to work.
• Hands‑On & Delegative Leadership: You can edit a quick video or design a graphic yourself, but preferably you delegate to freelancers or others to scale.
