Early-career execution and operational support role focused on building strong paid media fundamentals, accuracy, and professional confidence.
Owner of in-platform performance and channel execution. Strategists translate strategy into results through daily optimization and testing.
Communication and execution alignment leader. AMs own client communication, timelines, and coordination across the pod, with growing responsibility for revenue expansion and account health.
Manages AMs + client experience. Coaches AMs on leadership, client management, and communication. First escalation point for AMs.
Leads teams of Sr AMs + AMs, ensures operational excellence. ADs must spend the majority of time client-facing, not internally project-managing.
Tiger Tracks' leadership model prioritizes:
You are accountable for five outcomes:
| Outcome | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Clarity | Your report knows what success looks like, why it matters, and how it ties to customer success |
| Communication | Information flows down (expectations, priorities) and up (risks, blockers) early |
| Coaching | You develop people through structured touchpoints - weekly tactical, monthly coaching |
| Consistency | Your report experiences a predictable rhythm. Calm comes from routine |
| Quality | You ensure work is client-ready and meets Tiger Tracks standards |
Leadership tone: Warmth + Standards (clear, direct, supportive, customer-first)
Pods are designed to have clear reporting lines, maintain healthy manager ratios (1โ2 direct reports per layer), stay intact as the business grows, and flex cross-functionally during high-volume periods.
As you move up, you shift away from tactical execution and toward strategic leadership:
| Role | Focus |
|---|---|
| AC | Pipeline + execution support. High coaching needs. |
| AS | In-platform performance, optimization, insights, testing. Delegates to ACs. |
| AM | Tier 3โ4 communication, workflow, reporting, QA. Manages downward. |
| Sr AM | Tier 2โ3 client experience. Coaches AMs. First escalation point. |
| AD | Tier 1โ2 strategic leadership. Revenue, narrative, QBRs, performance reviews. |
Structured coaching, not constant criticism.
Led by: AD for Sr AM โ Sr AM for AM โ AM for AS and AC
"Bruno, I need XYZ done by EOD today. Please email me the draft by 4pm so I can review and share feedback before shipping to client."
Why this matters: Being "busy" is synonymous with working, everyone is busy every day. The real question is: what are they busy with, and is it the best use of their time?
When you issue a clear command and the person says they don't have bandwidth, this is not a problem, it's an opportunity.
You are now engaged in a highly productive prioritization conversation: and a teaching moment. Two outcomes:
Issue a clear command: "I need you to deprioritize that in favor of this more urgent work." You can and should reprioritize your team's time to focus on high-priority work. This is you helping your team win.
Great, now you know! Reassign the task or adjust the deadline. You've had a productive conversation either way.
Often, a lack of bandwidth is not about prioritization at all. Some team members use whatever is on their calendar, regardless of what it is, as an excuse to avoid taking on delegated work.
As a manager, it's your job to identify when this is happening and coach through it, not let it slide. A simple "Walk me through your calendar today" can surface the reality quickly.
Any level โ HR for behavior, repeated underperformance, documentation needs, harassment, or discrimination.
| C | Question |
|---|---|
| Competence | Is the work accurate, strategic, and client-ready? |
| Communication | Are updates timely, clear, and proactive? |
| Consistency | Are they reliable day-to-day and week-to-week? |
Managers contribute to a culture of:
The more value you add in different ways, the deeper the trust and partnership becomes.
"Switching cost" increases the more we do for a client, we become harder to replace.
Each offering amplifies the others. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
More offerings = more revenue per client = higher bonus outcomes for everyone.
Every offering we sell makes the others perform better:
Capture high-intent demand through disciplined keyword strategy, bidding, and full-funnel optimization to maximize efficient growth.
Generate demand and scale customer acquisition through audience-driven creative testing and platform-native performance strategy on channels including Meta, TikTok, Snap, and more.
Expand reach beyond walled gardens using data-driven targeting and measurement to support brand and performance goals.
Drive incremental revenue across retail networks (Amazon, Walmart, Instacart, etc.) by optimizing product visibility, bidding strategy, and creative performance.
Drive incremental reach and measurable performance through data-driven CTV strategy, audience targeting, and cross-channel attribution beyond linear TV.
Develop engaging content that delivers a powerful message and sets the foundation for success across all digital touchpoints.
Produce and scale authentic, platform-native user-generated and/or allowlisting content that drives trust, engagement, and performance across channels.
Build conversion-focused web experiences designed to support testing, analytics, and sustained performance at scale.
Build and A/B test landing pages to augment conversion rate of both paid campaigns and organic traffic.
Improve conversion efficiency and discoverability across web and app touchpoints to increase ROI from existing traffic.
Optimize brand visibility and performance within AI-powered discovery environments and emerging search experiences.
Increase LTV and retention through data-driven messaging, automation, and behavioral segmentation.
Improve your tracking setup & tech stack. Start with a free audit and work together to take your analytics to the next level.
Quantify true channel impact and guide smarter budget allocation through advanced statistical modeling.
How Tiger Tracks grows: our sales motion, who we sell to, and the partner ecosystem that drives our pipeline.

At Tiger Tracks, how you surface problems matters just as much as spotting them. We expect every team member to climb the pyramid, don't just flag issues, bring solutions.
"There is a problem." Then you walk away.
You flag it and leave someone else to deal with it. This adds work to your manager's plate without contributing anything.
"There is a problem, and I've found some causes."
You've started digging but stopped short of solutions. Better than Level 1, but still leaves the heavy lifting to someone else.
"Here's the problem, here are some possible causes, and here are some possible solutions."
Now you're contributing real value. You've diagnosed and are offering paths forward.
"Here's the problem, what I think caused it, possible solutions, and here's the one I recommend."
You've done the analysis AND formed a recommendation. Your manager just needs to approve or adjust.
"I identified a problem, figured out the cause, researched how to fix it, and I fixed it. Just keeping you in the loop."
Full ownership. You solved it and informed your manager after the fact. This is what senior operators do.
When performance shifts, don't wait for your manager to ask. Investigate, form a POV, and act. Client QBRs should showcase Level 4-5 thinking.
Coach your reports up the pyramid. When someone comes to you at Level 1-2, ask: "What do you think we should do?" Push them to Level 3+.
Consistently operating at Level 4-5 is one of the strongest signals for promotion readiness. It proves you can own outcomes, not just tasks.
| Scenario | Level 1-2 โ | Level 4-5 โ |
|---|---|---|
| Client churn risk | "The client seems unhappy." | "Client expressed frustration about reporting cadence. I've restructured their dashboard, moved to weekly automated reports, and scheduled a realignment call for Thursday. Sharing the updated report template with you for review." |
| Campaign launch delay | "Creative assets aren't ready." | "Creative is 2 days behind. I've pulled 3 proven ad variants from similar accounts as backups, briefed the design team on a rush timeline, and adjusted the launch plan to Phase 1 (proven creative Day 1) โ Phase 2 (new creative Day 3). Client is aligned." |
| Budget pacing issue | "We're overspending on this account." | "Account is 15% over pace for the month. I've already pulled back daily budgets on the 2 campaigns driving the overspend, set automated rules to cap spend, and sent the client a pacing update with a recovery plan for the remaining 10 days." |
| New platform request | "The client wants to try TikTok." | "Client asked about TikTok. I researched their vertical's performance benchmarks, drafted a test-and-learn proposal with $5K budget, identified 3 competitor examples, and have a media plan ready for your review before I present to the client." |
Be honest with yourself. Think about the last 3 times you brought a problem to your manager.
