Common mistakes on resumes for this role

  • Activities listed with no spend or return — "ran paid campaigns" with no budget, CAC or ROAS reads as unaccountable.
  • Vague scope words ("supported marketing efforts") instead of channel ownership and what changed under that ownership.
  • No mention of the tools that prove the channel expertise claimed — specific ad platforms, CRM, analytics stack.
  • Vanity metrics only (impressions, followers) with no downstream metric — leads, pipeline, revenue.

Weak vs. strong

Weak Managed social media and email marketing campaigns.

Strong Owned lifecycle email for a 50K-subscriber list; a re-segmented welcome series lifted 30-day activation 18% and added $40K in monthly pipeline.
