THS Creative ยท Marketing Specialist

This is the work I already do.

Ten years across NASCAR and e-commerce built the exact mix this role needs: strategy, content, social, email, client support, project ownership, and practical AI workflows. This is not a pivot. It is a direct fit.

Comfortable across Windows, macOS, and Linux, with hands-on experience moving between tools, systems, and workflows without slowing the team down.

๐Ÿ“‹
Strategy
Annual and quarterly marketing strategy
Content tied to business goals, not just a posting schedule
Content calendars built around the sales pipeline
At SHOP.com, editorial calendars were built around campaign timelines, product launches, and revenue goals. That same discipline applies to THS Creative: content planned around where the pipeline needs support, where the brand needs visibility, and what the business is trying to move forward.
Sales tools, capability decks, and support materials
Sales materials should make the value easy to understand before a conversation gets complicated. Capability decks, case studies, and support pieces need to tell a clear story, answer the right questions, and help the sales team move opportunities forward.
๐Ÿ“ฑ
Social and Community
Organic social presence
Active management across the platforms where THS needs to show up
Ten-plus years of organic social management
Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, LinkedIn, and YouTube have all been part of the work. The job is not only posting. It is writing, publishing, monitoring, engaging, adjusting, and making sure each channel supports a clear brand or business goal.
โœ‰๏ธ
Email
Newsletters and nurture campaigns
Email that works as a business tool, not just a broadcast
Hands-on experience building and deploying campaigns
Email campaigns have been built from setup through performance review, including audience segmentation, campaign structure, subject line strategy, open and click tracking, and iteration. Each send should make the next one smarter.
โœ๏ธ
Content
Case studies, blogs, and insight content
Writing that turns expertise into trust before a sales call happens
A strong writer who can extract the point
Long-form content, campaign copy, and blog-style work were regular parts of the job at SHOP.com. The source can be a brief, a strategist, a subject matter expert, or leadership. The goal is the same: find what is worth saying and turn it into content that is clear, useful, and credible.
๐ŸŒ
Web and SEO
Website content and search optimization
Web copy that gets found and converts when it does
Practical experience building and improving web content
Building a portfolio site from scratch created a working understanding of how message clarity, site structure, search visibility, and user experience connect. That translates into comfort inside a CMS, cleaner web copy, and better collaboration with developers when content and technical decisions need to line up.
๐Ÿ“Š
Analytics
Performance monitoring and improvement
Recommendations that improve the next move
Analytics used as a decision-making tool
Meta Insights, Google Analytics, and platform-level analytics have been used to understand performance, spot what is not working, and adjust strategy based on real behavior. The value is not a dashboard screenshot. The value is knowing what to do next.
๐Ÿ”
Scoping and Planning
Project estimates, creative briefs, and project plans
Projects set up clearly before production starts
Scoping that protects the team and the client
Content projects have been scoped, resources coordinated, and timelines built to keep work moving. Strong estimates set expectations early, protect the team's time, and reduce the scope creep that strains client relationships.
Creative briefs that align people early
The right questions come before the work: what are we making, who is it for, what does it need to accomplish, what should it feel like, and what does success look like. A cleaner brief means fewer revisions and a smoother path to approval.
๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ
Project Management
Managing projects from start to finish
Ownership from kickoff through delivery
End-to-end project ownership with real accountability
At SHOP.com, major campaign launches and partner initiatives required coordination across creative, social, and marketing teams on hard deadlines. AI-assisted production workflows were also built to turn long-form video into multiple short-form assets, with the full process mapped from input to output.
Proactive communication that keeps everyone informed
Editorial calendars and campaign timelines often involve multiple people with competing priorities. Account Managers, Sales Liaisons, and internal teams need updates before they have to ask. If something is shifting, it should be communicated early while there is still time to adjust.
๐Ÿ—“๏ธ
Campaign Execution
Campaign planning, content calendars, and copywriting
Campaigns that stay organized across every channel
Multi-channel execution with a full-season mindset
At SHOP.com, campaigns ran across organic social, paid social, and content at the same time. At JD Motorsports, content followed a full race season calendar while still leaving room to react in real time. That builds the ability to hold the big picture and the daily details at once.
Copy that fits the brand, platform, and audience
NASCAR race coverage, sponsor content, major e-commerce campaigns, and professional thought leadership all require different voices. The core skill is adapting tone without making the work feel generic or overworked.
๐Ÿ“ˆ
Reporting
Campaign performance tracking and client reporting
Reporting that builds trust and improves decisions
Performance reporting clients can actually use
The goal is to translate performance into clear takeaways: what happened, why it matters, and what should happen next. Good reporting should answer questions, not create more of them.
๐Ÿค
Collaboration
Working with creative and production teams
A teammate who moves the work forward without adding friction
Experienced inside fast-moving creative environments
At SHOP.com, the work ran alongside creative, production, and paid media teams every day. At JD Motorsports, content moved through race weekends with photographers, PR staff, and sponsor contacts all moving at once. The habit is simple: ask clearly, communicate early, respect the workflow, and keep the next person from inheriting avoidable problems.

Proof Point
SHOP.com multi-day event campaign execution
High-volume content under fixed, interconnected deadlines
Wednesday through Sunday event coverage
At SHOP.com, multi-day event campaigns ran from Wednesday through Sunday with high content volume and tight turnaround expectations. Content needed to be planned, produced, and published within minutes of speakers going on and coming off stage.
Cross-team coordination in real time
Execution required coordination across photography, graphic design, multimedia teams, and leadership, while also integrating real-time user-generated content from attendees and in-the-moment photo and video.
Deadlines that protected the whole workflow
Deadlines were fixed and interconnected. If one slipped, everything behind it moved. That is the same pressure structure agency work requires: clear planning, fast execution, and the ability to deliver without breaking the workflow. This was the standard, not the exception. It is how I operate.

This role needs someone who can move between strategy and execution without treating either side as secondary. That is where the last ten years have been spent. Brand building, client accountability, multi-channel content, campaign management, and performance review have all been part of the work.

THS Creative's model makes that range useful immediately. A studio with decades of history, a full team of specialists, and responsibility across internal brand building and client marketing support needs someone who can understand the whole picture while still handling the daily details.

The AI workflow conversation with Renee also matters because it is already aligned. This is not a theoretical interest or a buzzword. Practical systems are already part of how the work gets done: faster drafting, smarter repurposing, cleaner production pipelines, and more output without lowering standards.

The fit is straightforward. Strategy connects to execution. Content supports business goals. Client work gets handled with consistency. The team gets someone who can contribute without needing the work re-explained at every step.

This is not something I am growing into. It is how I have been operating. The value is lower ramp-up time, fewer dropped details, stronger content support, and useful output from the first week.

President
Larry

Marketing stays tied to business outcomes. At SHOP.com, campaigns were built around product launches, engagement, and revenue goals. At JD Motorsports, that same accountability showed up through sponsor deliverables and measurable visibility. The pattern is consistent: content has a purpose, performance can be explained, and the work connects directly to what the business is trying to accomplish.

Interim CMO
Renee

Direction turns into execution without needing constant follow-up. At SHOP.com, that meant managing campaigns, content production, and AI workflows across multiple channels. At JD Motorsports, it meant producing consistent output under fixed timelines and external expectations. Work can be handed off and returned complete, which keeps focus on higher-level priorities.

Sales Development Manager
Lauren "LC"

Sales gets content that supports real conversations. At SHOP.com, campaigns were built to drive engagement and product movement. At JD Motorsports, every deliverable had to justify sponsor investment. That translates into content that answers questions early, builds trust faster, and gives prospects a clearer reason to move forward.

Marketing Production / Scheduling
Tracie

Production gets a reliable handoff. At SHOP.com, campaign timelines required coordination across teams and consistent output. At JD Motorsports, race weekends reinforced discipline around deadlines, preparation, and communication. Work gets completed on time, updates come early, and the workflow stays intact.

Director of Account Management
Kristy

Client work is handled with consistency and accountability. At SHOP.com, campaigns required alignment across teams and measurable results. At JD Motorsports, nearly a decade of sponsor content meant managing approvals, timelines, and expectations every week. That experience carries directly into client support that is reliable and aligned with what was promised.
