Maintain detailed testing documentation and change logs, recording the outcomes and conclusions of every experiment to inform future decisions. Ensure campaigns are launched accurately by implementing rigorous quality assurance processes and preventing client-visible setup or execution errors. Manage client accounts independently, resolving routine media questions and escalating issues only when necessary.
