Performance Marketing Manager

About into
3.ai
into
3.ai   is India's first Learning Infrastructure Platform. Here, we treat learning very differently — everything is science-backed. We monitor students' biomarkers in real-time — facial expressions, cardiovascular parameters (SpO2, blood pressure, heart rate) — and adapt the learning experience based on these signals. The result: learning isn't surface-level but relies on body markers that ensure actual knowledge transfer. Being AI-first, learning on into3 is hyper-personalised and unmatched in depth.

Why This Role Exists
You'll own paid acquisition across Meta, Google, and You Tube — targeting parents of CBSE Class 8-10 students in India. Tight budgets, fast iteration, daily optimisation. You're a hands-on operator who creates creatives, runs campaigns, and optimises — all yourself.

What You'll Actually Do
Week 1:

• Set up Meta Ads Manager, Google Ads, and You Tube Ads accounts for into
3.ai from scratch — pixel, conversion tracking, GA4 integration, UTM framework

• Study the brand voice guidelines document (we'll give you the full 16-page doc) — understand our tone, personas, and messaging pillars

• Create first 10 ad creatives yourself (yes, yourself — Canva, Cap Cut, whatever) targeting parents of Class 8-10 students in Lucknow, Jaipur, Patna

• Launch first test campaigns on Meta with ₹5,000/day budget — test 3 audiences, 5 creatives, 2 landing pages
First Month:

• Find the winning formula:
Which creative, audience, platform, and message combo gives us the lowest CPL and highest conversion to paid?

• Build the retargeting funnel:
Website visitor → Lead → Free trial → Paid. Set up custom audiences, lookalikes from early adopters and event participants.

• Run You Tube pre-roll ads with into3 Reel content — target parents searching "CBSE class 9 preparation", "best online classes for class 10"

• Set up Whats App lead nurturing — convert leads captured from ads into conversations, guide to paid sign-up

• Test regional language ads:
Hindi, Hinglish, English — find what converts in Tier 2/3 vs Tier 1

• Weekly reporting to Bhupesh:
Spend, CPL, CPA, ROAS, top/bottom creatives, audience insights, next week's plan
Ongoing:

• Scale what works, kill what doesn't — daily optimization, not weekly

• Manage growing budgets as CAC proves out (₹5-10L/month → ₹20-30L/month in Q2 if ROAS is positive)

• Coordinate with Content Creator for ad creative production — you ideate and brief, they produce polished versions

• Seasonal campaigns:
Board exam season, new academic year, festival periods, school reopening

The Person We're Looking For
A hands-on operator, not a strategist who presents decks. You should be inside Ads Manager more than PowerPoint. You create creatives, write copy, set up campaigns, analyze data, and optimize — all yourself. No "I need a designer to make the creative" or "I need an analyst to pull the data." You are the designer, the analyst, and the media buyer in one person.

You've spent your own money on ads, or you've managed tight budgets where every ₹100 mattered. You know the difference between vanity metrics (impressions, reach) and real metrics (CPL, CPA, ROAS). You've been burned by Facebook's "Reach" optimization and learned to always optimize for conversions.
You understand Tier 2/3 India. You know that a parent in Lucknow responds to different messaging than a parent in Bangalore. You know that Whats App is the conversion channel, not email. You know that ₹1,499/month is a serious decision for a middle-class family and you need to make them feel the value before they pay.

You're resourceful and scrappy. If the creative isn't working, you make a new one in 30 minutes, not 3 days. If a campaign is bleeding money, you pause it at 10 PM, not wait for Monday's review meeting.
Must Have

• 4+ years hands-on in Meta Ads Manager + Google Ads — not just "managed" but actually set up, optimized, and scaled campaigns yourself

• Managed at least ₹5-10 lakh/month budgets with measurable ROAS/CPA results you can show

• Can create ad creatives yourself: basic video editing (Cap Cut), graphics (Canva), and ad copy writing in Hinglish/Hindi

• Strong with analytics: GA4, Meta Pixel/CAPI, conversion tracking,…
