@matiasvargas
Data-driven performance marketer optimizing marketplace media to grow revenue and reduce ACOS.
What I'm looking for
I’m a performance marketing professional focused on driving measurable growth on marketplaces like Amazon and Mercado Libre. I manage marketplace relationships, develop paid media strategies, and continuously adjust campaigns to maximize ROI.
In my most recent role, I increased year-over-year sales by 113% and achieved a 95% sales growth in H2 vs. H1. I also expanded my product catalog by 50% and improved efficiency by reducing ACOS by 10 percentage points on Amazon and 7 percentage points on Mercado Libre.
Earlier, I led regional marketing efforts across Chile, Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia, created the 2024 marketing strategy, and increased supply leads by 30%. I’ve also built acquisition and operations foundations—implementing CRMs, creating KPI dashboards, and using SEO and data analytics (SQL, Python, R, Power BI, Tableau) to uncover bottlenecks and turn them into action.
