About Optimal
Optimal Digital Marketing is a results-driven agency with a simple goal: helping great companies create tangible growth. And when we say tangible, we mean it. Over the last three years, we've generated $131 million in attributed growth for our clients. Our moonshot? One billion dollars in real, measurable business impact.
Every company has values on their website. Most are just words on a wall (or these days, pixels on a screen). At Optimal, our values are the hard decisions we make every day. They're where we put our time, our energy, and yes, our money.
Here's what that looks like in practice: We trust our people to make important decisions. Not just small ones – real, meaningful choices that impact our clients and our future. We invest in growth opportunities that matter. And we make sure every person on our team knows their work matters. When we hire, we take our time. We're looking for people who don't just nod along with our values but live them. Because building a high-performing team isn't about collecting impressive resumes – it's about finding people who make everyone around them better.
We're a remote-first company, with our headquarters in Appleton, Wisconsin, and team members across the US. But location isn't what defines us. What defines us is how we work together to create exceptional results, no matter where we are.

They excel at sharing trends, insights, and next steps, building trust and clarity with their clients.
Cross-Functional Teams
Our Growth Marketers are team players. On our smaller team, they fill in where needed, assist the team, and collaborate as a group to be successful. Growth marketers work closely with specialists and other team members both on dedicated client accounts and for ad hoc support. Growth Marketers help the business grow through continuous improvement, candid feedback, quality control, and process improvement. They help identify opportunities for growth and upselling additional services to their clients. Growth marketers contribute to a positive and collaborative team environment by sharing knowledge and expertise.
Role Outcomes
The role outcome for a Growth Marketer is to achieve and maintain a rating of 75% client satisfaction. The focus to achieve this are behaviors that support how we measure client satisfaction through clarity, trust, and results. We measure this with our client satisfaction and monthly value aligner process. The process includes a self rating followed by a brief client conversation to ensure alignment, or to create a plan for improvement if needed.
Clarity involves effective communication to set clear expectations, align strategies, and establish well-defined goals with clients. Trust is built through fostering strong, authentic relationships. Results are driven by transparency, precise reporting, and consistently achieving client objectives
