Matthew Doty
@matthewdoty
Marketing director and growth leader driving full-funnel performance and brand storytelling for luxury and DTC brands.
What I'm looking for
I am a marketing leader with over a decade of experience scaling luxury, DTC, B2B, SaaS, and nonprofit brands through full-funnel strategy, segmented media buying, and creative optimization. I routinely drive 3–7x ROAS, built and scaled a social division by 1,100% at a Rolex partner agency, managed 150+ paid campaigns per month, and co-authored global social media guidelines for a major luxury brand.
I founded and lead a national consultancy that built CRM, paid social, and email systems for SMBs and premium retailers, delivered consistent 4–6x ROI on advisory campaigns, and launched a nonprofit recognized by the Clinton Foundation. I balance data-driven performance (GA4, attribution, CRO) with creative direction and mentorship, and I seek remote full-time roles that value measurable growth and brand integrity.
