Cannabis Jobs in Metropolis, IL

Sales & Marketing Manager

We are looking for a hardcore Sales & Marketing Manager with the professional skills and experience to lead the way in building and managing a strategic Social and Influencer Marketing program to launch a new brand of extraordinary CBD products including D8 where applicable positioned to be meaningful and differentiating to the everyday mass-market consumer. The person that we are searching for is the one who will be relentless in building the brand and making it a household name. We desire to grow and thrive with your expertise in building the brand as we are not the experts, you are…..keeping us up to date and understanding how and why strategies are being rolled out is imperative.

The Sales & Marketing Manager will own AerosourceH’s customer acquisition and brand initiatives.

This individual will own the strategy and execution for customer acquisition. As such, they should be able to balance the quantitative and qualitative of marketing. This individual will be expected to own budgeting and key marketing metrics, such as customer acquisition cost (CAC) and lifetime value (LTV). While they are not required to be a universal expert, they should have experience across several marketing channels including email/CRM, public relations (PR), search engine marketing (SEM), search engine optimization (SEO), social media (Facebook, Instagram), podcast, YouTube, influencers, and affiliate marketing. As channels prove viable (or lift restrictions on CBD advertising), this individual will be responsible for switching gears to advertise and market accordingly.

In addition to customer acquisition, a successful candidate will develop a strategic marketing plan across the company in retail locations and ecommerce, while evolving our brand/product experience for the future. They will be expected to not only develop our customer segments, competitive positioning, and brand value proposition—but also champion their consistent use across the organization. Creating a strong brand standard is what AerosourceH wants to invest in heavily to ensure staying power with the Sales & Marketing Manager being the key player in making it happen.
