- Customer Journey Mapping: Ability to analyse organic touchpoints and optimise the customer funnel.
- Experience with Automation Tools: It would be beneficial to be familiar with Ortto or similar automation tools to help streamline and personalise the customer journey.

Backlink Acquisition & Off-Page SEO
