Illysa Leach
@illysaleach
I am a marketing and operations professional driving growth with data-driven strategies.
What I'm looking for
I am a marketing and operations professional who has led local and digital campaigns that delivered measurable growth — including a 25% increase in weekly transactions, a 40% growth in social following, and maintaining over 90% occupancy in residential leasing.
I leverage tools such as Salesforce, Agorapulse, Asana, and Mailchimp to manage timelines, automate content calendars, and analyze engagement to improve performance. I hold an Executive MBA and a BS in Business Administration (Minor in Marketing) and build training and onboarding content that reduces turnover and increases consistency.
