Marketing Sync — 2026-03-10
Client: [1]
Meeting type: Marketing strategy sync
Source: Fathom recording
Overview
Monthly marketing sync covering four main areas: outstanding website bugs, PPC campaign performance and reallocation, SEO blog publishing strategy, and upcoming CRM optimization planning. The headline decision was pausing the underperforming Meta lead-gen campaign and redirecting that spend toward Google and a newly launched Bing campaign.
Attendees:
- Sebastian Gant (Asymmetric — account lead)
- Karly Oykhman (Asymmetric — CRM)
- Melissa Cusumano (Asymmetric)
- Avokerie Onorimuo (Asymmetric)
- Tamilyn Liesenfeld (Liesenfeld International / Cordwainer owner)
- Bodo Liesenfeld (Liesenfeld International / Cordwainer owner)
- Erica Lathrop (Cordwainer — operations)
- Maria Lastoria (Cordwainer)
Key Decisions
| Decision | Rationale |
|---|---|
| Pause Meta lead-gen campaign | 0 quality leads from 11 submissions; all leads unresponsive |
| Reallocate Meta spend to Google + Bing | Google ramping well; Bing targets the right demographic at ~15–20% of Google cost |
| Hold blog publication ~30 days | Wait for Domain Rating increase to maximize SEO impact of new content |
| Launch Bing at $6/day per campaign ($12/day total) | Conservative start; can scale if results are positive |

PPC Campaign Performance & Strategy
Meta Lead-Gen — Pausing
- Performance: 11 submissions, 0 quality leads; leads are unresponsive even though phone verification is required
- Decision: Pause. Spend to be reallocated to Google and Bing.
- Tamilyn will do a final review of the 11 leads before confirming pause; any memory-care leads forwarded to Erica
Google Ads — Ramping
- Budget: $60/day (two campaigns at $30/day each)
- Status: Impressions and clicks showing a recent upward spike — campaigns appear to be entering their ramp-up phase
- Recent optimizations: Negative keyword additions from search term report review; structured snippets added; client-provided images uploaded
- Upcoming: Dedicated conversion-focused landing page in design; traffic currently going to homepage as interim measure
- CallRail integration expected to provide additional attribution visibility once fully live
Bing Ads — Launching
- Rationale: Targets an older demographic well-aligned with memory care; costs ~15–20% of equivalent Google spend
- Budget: $6/day per campaign, $12/day total (two campaigns copied from Google)
- Status: Campaigns set up and copied from Google; paused pending payment method setup
- Next step: Sebastian sends Tamilyn admin invite → Tamilyn adds payment method → campaigns go live
Google Display (Remarketing) — Pending Fixes
- Purpose: Re-engage website visitors across Google's display network
- Fixes needed: Correct "Norwell" → "Norwell" spelling; remove export artifact lines from final ad creative
- Multiple ad dimensions prepared to allow flexible placement across the network
SEO & Content Strategy
- 5 blog drafts completed and sent to Tamilyn for review
- Publishing plan: Hold publication until the site's Domain Rating increases (~30 days per Mark's earlier estimate)
- Rationale: Publishing on a higher-DR domain gives new content significantly more SEO authority from day one
- Tamilyn to review drafts and return feedback regardless of publish timing, so revisions are ready to go when DR improves
CRM Optimization
- Karly met with the Cordwainer team the prior week to scope CRM work
- Internal Asymmetric meeting scheduled same day (2026-03-10) to align on priorities and sequencing
- Deliverable: Written plan with task list, estimated timelines, and expected results — due within 1–2 days
- Goal: reduce manual workload for Erica; optimize lead follow-up workflows
Notes & Context
- Tamilyn and Bodo joined from a location with poor internet (Starlink); significant audio issues in first half of call
- Tamilyn expressed skepticism about Google Ads spend ($60/day feels high); Sebastian noted the ramp-up pattern and suggested giving it more time before reducing budget
- Tamilyn suggested Bing may ultimately deserve more budget if Google underperforms — to revisit once both channels have data
- CallRail full deployment will be a key milestone for accurate cross-channel attribution
