I hired this digital marketing guy and he's doing alright but he doesn't respond to my emails. I almost fired him yesterday after he tested with 50% of our ad budget. I paid a month in advance and I honestly don't see this moving forward past the first month. Anyone have experiences that might help me make this decision?

You the guy whose CPA tanked at the beginning of the month?

Just curious, not too many attorneys here.

What's your primary goal/kpi?

How has it changed?

How long have they been working on the account(s)?

How many hours do they get paid for?

It all kinda depends. If this is week 3, across multiple platforms, at 10hrs/mo it's gonna be a very different answer than month 60, 40hrs/mo, search/social, and the needle hasn't moved.

Has he been there for 30 days?

CTR, contracts and department overhaul

our marketing dept is undergoing a complete overhaul. under old leadership, a $75k 12-mo contract was signed to a marketing group that handles our SEO, blog and everything Google Ads. All things I can and am in training to do. Current CTRs on G ads seem pitiful at no more than 0.75%. My meta ads coast around 4-6%. During this overhaul, would it be wise to not renew our contract, and negotiate for me to take over these roles and leverage a raise?
