Zakier J.
Digital Marketing Specialist

Cape Town, South Africa

Hello! I'm Zakier, an experienced digital marketing professional with 8-9 years of proven success in developing and executing impactful digital strategies across diverse industries. I specialise in driving brand visibility, lead generation, and revenue growth through expert utilisation of platforms like Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, social media, email marketing, and SEO. My proficiency in managing multi-channel campaigns and leveraging data-driven insights allows me to optimise performance and deliver exceptional results consistently.

In my current role as a Paid Media Specialist/Account Manager at Digital First/Stor-Age, I manage and execute paid media campaigns across multiple platforms, including Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Meta Ads, and more. My efforts have resulted in significant improvements in click-through rates and client retention. Previously, as a Paid Media Manager at Spintelligent/Clarion Events, I developed data-driven campaign strategies that increased lead generation by 30% and boosted revenue by 23% for B2B and B2C clients. My experience also includes roles at Rennie Property Brokerage and TNS Research Surveys, where I managed end-to-end digital marketing campaigns, optimised website content, and led social media initiatives.

I hold certifications in Google Ads and Facebook Blueprint and am currently pursuing further education in digital marketing from Udemy. My skills in data analysis, SEO, PPC, content strategy, and social media management are complemented by my ability to adapt to industry trends and emerging technologies. With a commitment to continuous improvement and a collaborative approach, I strive to deliver cutting-edge marketing solutions that maximise ROI and drive sustainable business growth.
