When to hire a Fractional Marketing Data Analyst
Bring in a Marketing Data Analyst when your team is spending money faster than it can measure what that money returns.
Ad platforms and CRM disagree
Meta, Google, and HubSpot or Salesforce each report different conversion counts, and nobody can say which number goes in the board deck.
Budget decisions run on gut feel
You are reallocating spend across paid search, social, and events without CAC, payback, or incrementality data by channel.
Reporting lives in spreadsheets
Someone on the team spends Mondays exporting CSVs and stitching together a weekly report that is already stale when it ships.
Tracking broke after a migration
A GA4 switch, cookie changes, or a new CDP left gaps in your event data and UTM taxonomy that no one has fixed.
Your data team is booked
Central data engineers prioritize product and finance requests, so marketing questions wait weeks in the queue.
The benefits of hiring a Fractional Marketing Data Analyst
A fractional Marketing Data Analyst gives you senior analytics capacity for attribution, spend efficiency, and reporting without adding a full-time headcount line to your marketing budget.
Build attribution models on a part-time budget
Get multi-touch attribution, incrementality reads, and CAC by channel from a senior analyst without paying full-time salary and benefits.
Ship trusted ROAS dashboards before budget review
Candidates arrive pre-screened, so your analyst can start reconciling ad platform and CRM numbers within days of the first call.
Match with analysts fluent in GA4, SQL, and dbt
Work with operators who have modeled data in Snowflake or BigQuery, built Looker and Tableau reporting, and run lift tests for B2B and consumer brands.
