Ethnic Fashion eCommerce Digital Marketing Specialist

E-COMMERCE PERFORMANCE MARKETING EXPERT – META/INSTAGRAM + GOOGLE ADS

I am launching a new Indian ethnic-fashion e-commerce brand focused initially on sarees. The website will have online payments, COD, shipping integration, product catalogue, analytics, Meta Pixel/CAPI, Google Analytics, Google Ads tracking and Google Merchant Center.
