GOAdvisory GO — brief is accurate, faithful to the transcript, and matchable. Two non-blocking items for the recruiter/matcher: (1) The structured taxonomy label 'Graphic Designer (Paid Social)' is a mismatch; match to a general marketing production designer, not a paid-social specialist. (2) Monthly asset volume was never captured (client lost service mid-call); clarify expected output to validate single-marketer capacity and to calibrate the $5K vs $7K seniority target. Neither issue blocks matching.

# Matching Agent <> Rob Meeting ID: 01KWW0XVBRE1Q5X5D8C8X143X9 Date: 2026-07-06T15:30:00.000Z Host: raaja@marketerhire.com Agent: Hey Rob, thanks for hopping on. Agent: I'm the AI Assistant from Marketer Hire and I'll be running our intro chat today. Agent: I've been trained on over 30,000 of our marketer matches so I can help zero in on the right fit for you. Agent: Fast to start. Agent: Would it help if I gave a quick overview of how we work or would you rather jump straight into what you're looking for? Rob: Yes,. Agent: Sure. Agent: Let me give you a quick rundown. Agent: Marketer Hire is the number one platform for premium freelance marketing talent in the us. Agent: We connect companies with senior pre vetted specialists, think channel experts like paid social, paid search, email, SEO growth and more who can drop in and start fast with very little onboarding needed. Agent: A couple of things that set us apart. Agent: We accept less than 1% of applicants and every marketer is double vetted by our team and by another expert marketer. Agent: So you're getting real senior talent, not generalists. Agent: And it's all month to month with a no risk two week trial. Agent: So there's no long term commitment to worry about. Agent: Does that give you a good enough picture or any question? Agent: Great. Agent: So let's get into it. Agent: Can you give me a quick overview of the company, what you do and what stage you're at? Rob: So we're an Amazon marketing agency. Rob: We have been in business for seven years. Rob: We support premium DTC brands that sell their goods on Amazon, full service, holistic service offering, creative catalog advertising, fulfillment, inventory operations strategy, etc. Rob: Basically with the goal of growing their business on Amazon. Rob: We are 26 people in the company. Rob: We are in the process of making some some updates to our brand style guide and and building and launching our marketing operation. Rob: So we need a couple streetlance, our contract designers to support that, the brand brand strategist or brand designer to help make the updates to the style guide and the more graphic designer marketing graphic designer to support all of our marketing asset needs. Agent: Got it. Agent: That's really helpful context. Agent: So you're essentially building out your own marketing function for the first time and you need two people, one more senior brand side to refresh the style guide and one more execution focused graphic designer to handle the ongoing marketing asset production. Agent: That makes a lot of sense. Agent: What are the current marketing challenges driving this? Agent: Like what's the gap you're feeling most acutely right now? Rob: We just don't have any dedicated resources to this and we have designers in house but they are working on client work full time and the marketing engine is going to be a full fledged effort on content, on you know, supporting the Website on sales, collateral, materials, you know, landing page design, newsletter, design client onboarding material. Rob: Like the whole system needs design support and right now it's really being supported ad hoc by our design resources that we can't afford to pull away from client work. Agent: That makes total sense. Agent: Your design team is maxed out on client work and you've got a whole internal marketing system that needs to be built out properly. Agent: So it's really two distinct needs. Agent: The brand strategy piece to get the foundation right and then ongoing graphic design execution to keep the engine running. Agent: How does your marketing function look today? Agent: Beyond the design side, is there someone internally leading the marketing strategy or is that also being stood up fresh? Rob: I'm leading the marketing strategy as CMO and I have a growth marketer that supports me. Rob: We are in the process of hiring a director of marketing to run the content and lead gen funnel. Rob: So those are the resources today. Agent: Got it. Agent: So you've got the strategy covered, a growth marketer on execution and a director of marketing coming in to own content and lead gen. Agent: The missing piece is really the design layer to support all of that. Agent: That makes a lot of sense. Agent: The brand designer role, is this primarily about the style guide refresh or do you see that person also having an ongoing role once the guide is done? Rob: Probably mainly about the style guide refresh. Rob: Maybe some support with that implementation on a website outside for that not ongoing. Agent: Okay, got it. Agent: So the brand designer is more of a project based engagement style guide refresh plus some website implementation support and then it wraps up. Agent: And the graphic designer is the ongoing resource for all the marketing asset production. Agent: For the graphic designer role, what would a typical month of output look like? Agent: What kinds of assets and roughly how much volume are we talking? Rob: I don't know right now. Rob: I'm going to lose service here momentarily, so I'm not sure how much more information I'll be able to give you. Agent: No worries at all. Agent: Let's make the most of the time we have Based on what you've shared, here's where I'd land on the two roles. Agent: For the brand designer. Agent: That sounds like a brand marketer or creative strategist. Agent: Engagement project, scoped style guide plus website support for the ongoing graphic designer. Agent: That's a great fit for our graphic designer role focused on marketing asset production. Agent: Given the brand designer is more project based and lighter in scope, that would typically run around 10 to 12,000amonth. Agent: And for the graphic designer on an ongoing basis, that usually lands around 6 to 7,000amonth. Agent: Both are all in the marketer's rate plus us no separate fees, month to month with a simple 30 day notice. Agent: Do those ranges feel roughly in line with what you were expecting or is there a budget number I should stay within for either role? Rob: They're a little higher than I was expecting. Rob: Yeah, probably by a few thousand dollars, I think. Rob: I was thinking more like it would be 8, 8 to 10k for the creative strategist for probably one month and then. Rob: Yeah, probably more 5 to 7 for the the graphic designer. Agent: That's helpful. Agent: Thanks for sharing that. Agent: So for the brand designer, 8 to 10,000 for roughly a one month engagement. Agent: That's actually very workable. Agent: We can present the role to our marketplace at that budget and you'd get strong candidates in that range. Agent: For the graphic designer at 5 to 7,000. Agent: 5,000 Is really the practical floor for our retainer model. Agent: So if you're thinking around five to seven, we can work with that. Agent: The stronger end of that range will get you a more senior shortlist, but we can make it work. Agent: And just so you know, both come with a no risk two week trial, fully refundable if the fit isn't right. Agent: And it's month to month, so no long term commitment. Agent: Does that feel like it could work on your end? Rob: Yes. Agent: Great. Agent: And just to make sure I have the full picture, how soon are you looking to get someone started on both of these? Rob: As soon as possible. Agent: Perfect. Agent: That works well with how we operate. Agent: We typically match within about two business days. Agent: Send you the marketer's bio to review, and once you're happy with the match, we go straight to the agreement and kick off the two week trial. Agent: The whole process usually comes together within about a week. Agent: I'll follow up by email with a recap and next steps. Agent: We already have your contact details. Agent: Is there anything else on your mind before we wrap up? Rob: No. Agent: This was really great. Agent: Thanks so much for taking the time today, Rob. Agent: I'll get to work on finding the right matches for both roles and follow up shortly with a recap and next steps. Agent: Have a great rest of your day. Agent: Ending the call now. Agent: Take care, Rob.

Rob's reaction and counter: He said the ranges were "a little higher than I was expecting... probably by a few thousand dollars." His expectation: "8, 8 to 10k for the creative strategist for probably one month" and "probably more 5 to 7 for the the graphic designer."
Resolution: MarketerHire accepted. For the brand/creative strategist role at 8-10K for ~one month: "That's actually very workable. We can present the role to our marketplace at that budget." For the graphic designer at 5-7K: "5,000 Is really the practical floor for our retainer model... we can work with that. The stronger end of that range will get you a more senior shortlist."

Resolution: MarketerHire accepted both counter-ranges, noting the brand designer budget was "very workable" and that $5,000 is "the practical floor" for the graphic designer retainer, with the caveat that "the stronger end of that range will get you a more senior shortlist." Rob confirmed the terms would work.

]Generated Brief
MarketerHire Brief - Marketing Graphic Designer
Snapshot
- Company: A seven-year-old Amazon marketing agency (26 people) providing full-service support—creative, catalog advertising, fulfillment, inventory operations, and strategy—to premium DTC brands selling on Amazon.
- Need: They're standing up their own internal marketing function for the first time. In-house designers are fully committed to client work, leaving marketing assets covered only ad hoc.
- Role: An ongoing, execution-focused graphic designer to own marketing asset production as the engine ramps up.
What You'd Work On
- Produce marketing assets across the full internal marketing system on an ongoing basis.
- Design website support materials and landing pages.
- Create sales collateral and client onboarding materials.
- Design newsletters/email and other content assets for the marketing engine.
Must-Have Fit
- Strong hands-on production designer who can turn around a steady, varied volume of marketing assets.
- Comfortable working across web, email, landing pages, and sales/collateral formats.
- Able to work within and apply an evolving brand style guide (the company is refreshing theirs in parallel).
- Self-directed and fast-starting in a newly formed marketing team with minimal existing process.
Helpful Context
- Channels/formats: Website, landing pages, email/newsletter, sales collateral, client onboarding materials.
- Team/collaboration: Reports into a CMO-led marketing team that includes a growth marketer, with a Director of Marketing (content and lead gen) being hired. This role fills the design layer.
- Nice-to-haves: Experience supporting DTC or eCommerce brands; familiarity working alongside a brand/creative strategist during a style guide refresh.
Internal Notes
Company / Identity
- HubSpot deal: "Voice Agent - Rob" (Deal ID: 62312988422). Company name NOT disclosed in transcript or deal name.
- Conflict/uncertainty: No verified company name available. Brief uses descriptive company framing rather than inventing a name. Website URL unknown — flagged as <UNKNOWN> in formData.
- Business: Amazon marketing agency, 7 years in business, 26 employees. Full-service (creative, catalog advertising, fulfillment, inventory ops, strategy) for premium DTC brands on Amazon.
- Stage: First-time build-out of an internal/dedicated marketing function; brand style guide refresh underway.
Point of Contact
- Rob, CMO. Leads marketing strategy internally; scoped and approved both freelance roles; holds decision authority (set budget, timeline, requirements).
- Supported by a growth marketer; hiring a Director of Marketing (content + lead gen). Design layer is the gap.
- MarketerHire side: AI Assistant; call hosted under raaja@marketerhire.com.
- Note: Rob warned he would lose service mid-call; asset volume details were not captured.
Budget (EXCLUDED from public brief)
- This role (Graphic Designer, ongoing/retainer): Agreed at $5,000–$7,000/month. Midpoint used for matching = $6,000/month.
- Agent's initial quote was $6–7K/month; Rob countered "more 5 to 7." Agent noted $5,000 is the practical floor for the retainer model; stronger end ($7K) yields a more senior shortlist. Rob confirmed "Yes."
- Billing: retainer, month-to-month, 30-day notice, all-in marketer rate + MarketerHire (no separate fees). Two-week no-risk trial.
- Confidence: high on this role's range.
Multi-role Context
- Two roles from one call. The other role is a Creative Strategist / Brand Designer (project-based, ~one month, $8–10K) for the style guide refresh + website implementation support. That role gets its own standalone brief.
- Combined monthly investment discussed: ~$15,000/month.
- Overlap/coordination: This graphic designer applies/executes against the style guide the creative strategist refreshes. Sequencing matters — style guide refresh is short-term/project; this graphic designer is the ongoing execution resource.
Structured Budget Decision (BudgetDecisionV3)
- Auto-QTB: needs_review (multi_role flag).
- Flags: multi_role, budget_negotiated_take_final, trial_vs_ongoing_noted, role_not_in_taxonomy.
- role_not_in_taxonomy flag applies here: mapped to "Graphic Designer (Paid Social)" in structured data, but actual scope is general marketing asset production, NOT paid social. Recommend matching to a general marketing graphic designer, not a paid-social specialist. The paid-social taxonomy label appears to be a mismatch.
Timeline
- Rob: "As soon as possible" for both roles.
- MH process: match within ~2 business days, bio review, then agreement + 2-week trial; full process ~1 week.
- Duration: this role is ongoing/retainer (open-ended).
Tools
- No named tools/platforms discussed. Only general deliverables/channels: website, sales collateral, landing pages, newsletter/email, client onboarding materials, content.
Matching Rationale
- Prioritize a hands-on production designer with breadth across web, email, landing pages, and collateral rather than a brand strategist.
- DTC/eCommerce familiarity is a plus given the client base (though the design work supports the agency's own marketing, not client brands).
- Senior-end shortlist supported if Rob targets the $7K end; $5K floor viable for a capable mid-level.
- Asset volume unknown — clarify expected monthly output before or during trial.

Two non-blocking items for the recruiter/matcher: (1) The structured taxonomy label 'Graphic Designer (Paid Social)' is a mismatch; match to a general marketing production designer, not a paid-social specialist. (2) Monthly asset volume was never captured (client lost service mid-call); clarify expected output to validate single-marketer capacity and to calibrate the $5K vs $7K seniority target. Neither issue blocks matching.

"checks": {
"transcript_fidelity": {
"status": "pass",
"notes": "Brief accurately reflects the transcript. Company framing (7-year-old Amazon marketing agency, 26 people, full-service for premium DTC brands), first-time internal marketing build-out, and the ad hoc design coverage gap are all directly supported. Deliverables listed (website support, landing pages, sales collateral, client onboarding materials, newsletter/email, content) map to Rob's stated needs. Team structure (CMO-led, growth marketer, incoming Director of Marketing) is accurate. No invented facts; company name correctly left undisclosed rather than fabricated."
},
"role_alignment": {
"status": "pass_with_note",
"notes": "Public brief correctly frames this as an ongoing, execution-focused marketing graphic designer for asset production. IMPORTANT: structured data maps this to 'Graphic Designer (Paid Social)' (role_not_in_taxonomy flag), which is a mismatch — actual scope is general marketing asset production, not paid social. Internal notes correctly flag this. Ensure matching targets a general marketing production designer, NOT a paid-social specialist."
},
"budget_realism": {
"status": "pass",
"notes": "Agreed range $5,000–$7,000/month, midpoint $6,000 for matching. Agent stated $5K is the practical retainer floor and $7K yields a more senior shortlist; Rob confirmed. Realistic and viable for a mid-to-senior production designer on retainer. Budget correctly excluded from public brief."
},
"niche_requirements": {
"status": "pass",
"notes": "No specialized tools or platforms required (none discussed). Requirements are broad-generalist production skills across web, email, landing pages, and collateral, plus ability to apply an evolving style guide. DTC/eCommerce familiarity is a reasonable nice-to-have. No over-narrow niche constraints that would restrict the marketplace."
},
"single_marketer_feasibility": {
"status": "pass_with_note",
"notes": "A single hands-on production designer can feasibly own ongoing marketing asset production across the listed formats. Caveat: monthly asset volume is unknown (Rob lost service before answering), so scope/output expectations should be confirmed before or during the two-week trial to ensure one designer's capacity fits the actual load. Role is appropriately distinct from the separately-briefed Creative Strategist."

Top Matches 5
#1 Sheba Tamakloe score 79 passes hard
sheba.tamakloe@gmail.com
Sheba is a hands-on graphic/motion designer with 10+ years across print and digital, producing marketing assets (emails, banners, landing page content, collateral, newsletters, paid social) for brands like Allbirds, YouTube, FabKids, and Levi's. Her portfolio strongly matches the multi-format marketing asset production this role needs, with direct eCommerce/DTC exposure. Main gaps: her recent roles skew heavily toward motion/video, less explicit on ongoing retainer volume and working within an evolving brand style guide as a primary lane, and her $60/hr rate is well below the ~$6K/month midpoint (which is favorable for budget fit).
Why surfaced: Over 10 years of experience translating ideas into compelling designs across print and digital platforms... producing creative assets, preparing files for web development, email marketing, and printing, all while managing multiple complex projects within the client's brand guidelines.
Hard pass/partial/fail: 0/0/0 - Important pass/partial/fail: 0/0/0

#2 Rebecca ioannucci score 80 passes hard
hello@mischievousdesign.com
Rebecca is a hands-on production designer with 10+ years creating advertising creative, strongest in paid social/DTC eCommerce creative (Meta/Google ads, site banners, email-aligned graphics, motion). She has clear multi-format breadth including email campaigns and landing pages, works within strict brand guidelines, and is expert in Adobe CS + Figma. Her center of gravity is paid social ad creative rather than the broader marketing-collateral system (sales collateral, client onboarding decks, newsletters, website support), but adjacent evidence (email campaigns, landing pages, presentation decks) supports transferability. Rate ($75/hr) plausibly fits the 5-7K/month retainer at part-time volume.
Why surfaced: 10+ years of experience creating stunning, top-performing advertising creative... I can help with both strategy and production of creative assets still & motion.

#3 Stephen Kern score 59 hard fail
skernart@gmail.com
Stephen is a decade-experienced NYC motion/graphic designer with strong hands-on paid-social ad production credentials (Stash, PlusUp, Tinuiti, Trademark Engine, Healthcare.com). He clearly meets the volume/fast-turnaround production bar and works within brand systems. However, his portfolio is heavily concentrated in paid social ad creative, motion graphics, and 3D animation — not the specific marketing-asset formats this role centers on (website support, landing pages, email/newsletter design, sales collateral, client onboarding materials). The multi-format breadth HARD requirement is only partially satisfied, which caps his fit.
Why surfaced: Whether you need animated ad campaigns, 3D product renders, or interactive experiences, I bring strategic thinking, high-quality design, and seamless execution to every project.

#4 Trustcia Pryor score 58 hard fail
trustcia-jnita94@live.com
Trustcia is a paid-social graphic designer specializing in motion graphics ads for consumer brands (EyeBuyDirect, Yelp, DoorDash, Yumble, Sunrun). Her demonstrated strength is social ad creative and motion graphics, not the multi-format marketing-asset production this role requires (website, landing pages, email/newsletter, sales collateral, client onboarding materials). The profile shows hands-on execution ability and some website-launch support, but there is no concrete evidence of the email, landing page, or sales/collateral breadth this retainer needs, so req-002 fails.
Why surfaced: Designing assets that aligned with Yumble's brand guidelines... Supporting the launch of an updated Yumble website.
Hard pass/partial/fail: 0/0/0 - Important pass/partial/fail: 0/0/0
#5 Gloria Chik score 51 hard fail
gloria@roguestories.com
Gloria is a seasoned growth/ecommerce marketer with real DTC and Amazon-adjacent breadth, but she is fundamentally a growth strategist and channel operator (paid media, email, CRO), not a hands-on production graphic designer. This role's HARD requirement is a strong production designer who can turn around a steady, varied volume of marketing assets across web, email, landing pages, and collateral. Her profile lists "Graphic design" as a skill and Canva/Photoshop/Illustrator among tools, and mentions "Paid Creative design," but there is no evidence of sustained, high-volume marketing asset production as a dedicated design function. The design signal is incidental to a growth role.
Why surfaced: A seasoned digital and growth marketer with roots in ecommerce, content, social media, and creative.

Bench Candidates 5
#6 Makenna Nielsen score 49 hard fail
kennanielsen@gmail.com
Makenna is a strong email/SMS lifecycle and retention marketer for DTC/luxury eCommerce brands, but she is not a hands-on production graphic designer. This role needs an ongoing marketing graphic designer to produce a steady, varied volume of assets across website, landing pages, email/newsletter, and sales/onboarding collateral. Her design work is confined almost entirely to email design within Klaviyo, with only "basic" graphic design listed as a skill and Canva/Photoshop/Figma as tools. She lacks evidence of producing website, landing page, and sales collateral design across formats. She fails the core hands-on marketing asset production requirement and the multi-format design breadth requirement.
Why surfaced: She partners with luxury and retail brands to provide full-service lifecycle marketing—owning strategy, copy, design, execution, and ongoing optimization.

#7 Adam Stanisic score 42 hard fail
adam.stanisic@gmail.com
Adam is an email/paid-social marketer with campaign management, copywriting, and fundraising experience, not a hands-on production graphic designer. His skills list includes only "Graphic design (basic)" plus template/email design tools (Canva, Photoshop, Mailchimp), with no evidence of ongoing, high-volume multi-format marketing asset production (website, landing pages, email design, sales collateral, onboarding materials). The role needs a dedicated production designer; Adam's core lane is email marketing and paid social. He fails the two HARD design requirements.
Why surfaced: "support a paid social media expert to test and optimize paid media campaigns" — Adam's profile centers on email marketing and paid social execution, not dedicated graphic design production.

#8 Myriam Gibson score 41 hard fail
myriam@mckcreatives.com
Myriam is a senior lifecycle/retention and brand marketing leader (Fractional CMO / VP Marketing) with deep DTC eCommerce experience across beauty, wellness, and fashion brands. However, this role needs a hands-on production graphic designer to churn out marketing assets across web, email, landing pages, and collateral. Her design experience is explicitly "Graphic design (basic)" and "Visual Brand management (not direct design)" — she directs creative rather than executes it. She fails the core hard requirement of hands-on multi-format design production.
Why surfaced: Strategic marketing leader & Fractional CMO with 10+ years... I leverage analytics, behavioral insights, and platform fluency to guide strategy.

#9 Diana Perez score 41 hard fail
dianap@thecreativepencil.com
Diana is a B2B social media and content strategist with 9 years of experience turning technical subject matter into organic social content and pipeline. Her core strength is organic social strategy, content writing, and community management—not hands-on marketing graphic design. This role requires a strong production designer who can turn around a steady, varied volume of marketing assets across website, email, landing pages, and sales collateral, applying an evolving brand style guide. Diana's profile shows only "light design," "creative direction to the graphic design team," and Canva/Photoshop listed as tools, with no evidence of a design portfolio or production-designer output. She fails the two HARD skill requirements.
Why surfaced: I'm a B2B social media and content strategist with 9 years of experience helping technical brands turn complex subject matter into content that builds authority and generates pipeline.

#10 Bobby Taslimi score 40 hard fail
b@316-interactive.com
Bobby is a strong paid social / performance marketer whose entire documented work history is Meta/TikTok paid acquisition, creative strategy, and scaling ad spend. While his skill list includes "Graphic design" and "Creative strategy/direction" and his tools include Canva and Photoshop, there is zero concrete evidence in his work history of hands-on marketing asset production across website, email/newsletter, landing pages, and sales/onboarding collateral. His creative involvement is oriented toward UGC briefing and ad creative direction for paid social, not production graphic design against a brand style guide. This role needs a dedicated production designer, and Bobby's proven strength lies in a different lane (paid social performance). He fails the two core HARD skill requirements on evidence.
Why surfaced: He 5x scaled ad spend while reducing CPA from $33 to $19–$21 ... deploying a proven UGC production system to source and brief creators for performance-driven ads.
