Alex Gilburg | Freelance Performance Marketing Consultant

With my data-driven marketing services, I help brands turn ad spend into accountable, profitable growth using value‑based bidding, clean tracking and pragmatic experimentation.

My data-driven marketing services combine the precision of a freelance performance marketing consultant with the curiosity of a data engineer. From managing €6M campaigns to building full-funnel attribution systems for start-ups, I help brands scale smarter, not just harder.

I’ve delivered lower CPAs, higher ROAS, and clean reporting for global players like Ford, adidas, Wayfair, and Zoro Tools.

Additionally, my work on SMBs including Qutis Clinics, ZED Consulting, and Corporate Workwear led to their data-driven growth. My experience building predictive LTV models and custom reporting pipelines connects media with measurement in a way that drives results.

Now I bring those enterprise-level tools and thinking to your team on a freelance basis.

Bringing Together Media, Data & Enablement

Platforms promise automation, but the real gains come when clean data and human judgement shape those algorithms. I set guardrails, introduce value signals, and translate performance into plain English so you can skip the guesswork and invest your media budget with confidence.

As a freelance performance marketing consultant, I combine data-driven marketing services with a thorough understanding of your needs as a business, bringing years of digital strategy, and not just platform knowledge.
