Questions & Answers

#1 Can you explain to us what your typical day looks like at your current company / abracadaBRO?

Know The Goals - Research - Define Strategies - Execute - Evaluate - Repeat

I start my day by checking our team progress to OKR and reading daily trends from our Social Media Analyst report.

Then I take time to look for various data and actionable insights to find if any new strategies or tactics that could help the team achieve the OKR faster.

After that I look at my to do list and editorial plan to know and do what is to be done on that day.

And then I usually evaluate the activity or campaign that has finished to determine the result, so we know what are successful that have to maintain and what is to be improved.
