I want to maintain a growth mindset and a holistic way of thinking regarding the business case at hand. The most inspiring aspect of my work during the past 10 years has been the opportunity to get to know different industries and learning how to apply (digital) marketing in the right way to enable results.

Marketing is a people business. Digital marketing might seem purely technical on the surface, but I believe success requires deep understanding of what drives peoples’ behavior. Understanding culture and societal trends is important and I find staying informed an important business skill.
I find the “people side” really important at the office, too.
I´m an advocate for open, inclusive and growth mindset-inducing company culture and leadership.

Especially in ad tech tools come and go and they change constantly. The core principles of (digital) marketing remain regardless of the tool or platform. When a job needs to be done, learning new tools is a must.
I have taken part in many successful new business cases together with my colleagues working in their roles as Account Managers, Sales Directors and Executive Directors.
Planning a new business case and a sales pitch is one of the most inspiring parts of my job. Building a new business case is essential groundwork for future success and that’s when a lot of background research and planning is actually done.
Digigital marketing expertise gives many tools & skills
for building new business cases: keyword research, researching competition in organic search,audience statistics in social media etc…
In January 2019, Bo LKV, one of the fastest-growing real estate agencies in Finland, started ramping up growth together with us at the digital marketing agency Hopkins. Improved efficiency in Facebook Ads allowed Bo LKV to decrease CPM by 41 %, reach 30 % more consumers through Facebook & Instagram and influence a 52 % growth in total website leads.

How to grow in a really competitive market. How to enable effective ad operations with offices in 10 different local markets and support them all.
I brought Facebook & IG ads across 10 local market under one campaign by using Smartly.io’s Automated Ads -functionality. It enabled better use of Facebook’s machine learning when ads were concentrated under smaller number of Ad Sets in just one campaign.
Automated Post Boosting campaigns were also enabled for all 10 markets, automatically promoting content published by client’s content team to predefined target audiences.
Also, Automated Ads feature reduces time building campaigns for 10 local markets, when the whole, localized campaign structure is created automatically.
