FAQs

How can I clearly define my ecommerce goals before hiring?

Start by outlining what you want to achieve with your online store. Do you want more traffic, better conversion rates, or increased sales? Be specific about your goals so that the marketer knows exactly what to aim for. The clearer your goals, the easier it will be for the marketer to create a strategy that works.

What should I include in the job description to attract the right ecommerce marketer?

Include the main tasks and responsibilities the marketer will handle. Mention the skills and experience you're looking for, such as expertise in Shopify or WooCommerce. Providing details about your business and goals will make it attractive for marketers who have the right skills.

How do I evaluate a freelance marketer's portfolio?

Look for examples of previous work related to ecommerce. Check if their projects were successful in bringing more sales or improving online visibility. A strong portfolio will show diverse skills and past success, tailored to ecommerce.

What kind of ecommerce marketing strategy should I expect?

A good strategy will include digital marketing methods like SEO, email marketing, and social media adverts. It should be tailored to your specific product and target audience. Discuss strategy ideas with the freelancer to see if they match your vision.

How can I ensure our communication will be effective?

Set up regular meetings or updates to track progress. Decide on the communication tools you'll use, like email or video calls. Being clear about expectations for communication helps to keep everyone on the same page and the project on track.

What are deliverables, and why are they important?

Deliverables are specific results the marketer will provide, like a new website design or a social media campaign plan. They help you see what you're getting and measure success. Agreeing on these upfront ensures that both parties know what the project outcome should be.

How do I set up a fair timeline for the project?

Consider the complexity of the work and the marketer's availability when setting deadlines. Be realistic about what can be achieved in a given timeframe. Work with the freelancer to create a timeline that accommodates quality work.

Onboard them with all necessary information about your brand and current marketing efforts. Share any access they need to your accounts or platforms. This helps them understand your brand better and get started quickly on your project.
