Hiring guide

What to look for in a Media Buying freelancer

A strong media buyer treats your budget like their own money. Look for:

  • A focus on return: ROAS and cost per result, not just reach.
  • Experience on your channels: Meta, Google, TikTok, or programmatic.
  • A testing discipline: structured experiments, not guesswork.
  • Budget scaling know-how: growing spend while holding efficiency.
  • Reporting you understand, with clear next moves.

Ask about a campaign that underperformed and exactly how they turned it around.
