● Building and maintaining a full long-term promo schedule for the games on GOG.com, consisting of regular weekly sales, special actions and key seasonal promos. Fully executing all those promos (setting them up, cooperating with other departments and making sure that the best results are delivered and that they meet the GOG.com standards).
● Working with different teams to drive revenue boosting strategies, increasing efficiency, identifying ad hoc opportunities and making the most out of them.
● Managing the GOG.com front page so that the right games and promos are featured at the right time, the best way they can. This will include managing the main page spots as well as highlights and take-overs. In a world in which so many games get released, we strive to ensure that all the releases and actions get the best possible exposure and each game gets its chance to shine.
● Defining Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) related to the revenue generated by the GOG.com catalog, promos and special campaigns.
