Dear [Hiring manager's name],
At Alamo Trail Outfitters I analyze marketing performance across six paid channels and roughly $2 million in annual ad spend, and my job is to tell the marketing director which channel to cut before the quarterly budget meeting, not after. I'm applying for the Marketing Data Analyst role because your posting describes that same accountability for spend, not just reporting on it.
I built a multi-touch attribution model that showed our paid social spend was getting credit that a cheaper email flow deserved; reallocating budget based on that finding cut customer acquisition cost 24% while holding revenue flat. I also automated our weekly campaign performance report, cutting the marketing team's Monday-morning reporting scramble from about three hours to fifteen minutes.
I write SQL against our marketing data warehouse, build in Looker Studio and Google Analytics 4, and I sit in the weekly channel-planning meeting so my analysis answers the question the team is actually about to argue about. I've trained two marketing coordinators to pull their own basic campaign reports without filing a ticket.
I'd welcome the chance to talk through the attribution model and hear where [Company name]'s own channel mix might be misallocated. I'm glad to walk through my Looker Studio work in an interview. Thank you for considering my application.
Best regards,
Yuki Thompson
