What StackAdapt sells

Software that automates online ad buying for brands

When a brand wants its ads in front of the right people online, it has to choose where the ads run and how much to pay for each spot. The problem is, getting it right takes constant tweaking, and results are hard to track. StackAdapt uses AI to buy and adjust ad spots automatically, so the right people see the ads and the results can be measured.

The Braun Read

Ask hard questions

Too much is left unsaid. Make them answer before you invest.

Pay
Base is listed but not OTE. Ask what the variable is and how many people hit it.
Transparency
Says nothing about quota, attainment, deal size, territory or sales cycle.
Pipeline
Doesn't say where pipeline comes from. Ask.
Time on market
Open 78 days. Ask why it's been hard to fill.
Company hiring
Ramping up: posted 9 sales roles in the last 30 days.

Based only on what the posting says. Lights are a starting point for your first call, not a final judgment.

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  2. 2.

    What's the OTE, and what did the median rep earn last year?

    Base is what you're guaranteed. OTE and the median show the upside.

  3. 3.

    What's the annual quota, and how was it set?

    A quota built from real data is a target. Otherwise it's a hope.

  4. 4.

    Where does pipeline come from: inbound, SDRs, or me?

    Tells you how much of your week is prospecting versus selling.

  5. 5.

    How long is ramp, and what's the quota during it?

    Full quota on day one means you start behind.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.

The most forward-thinking marketers choose StackAdapt to orchestrate high-impact campaigns across programmatic advertising and marketing channels. The Director, Client Analytics Partnerships is responsible for shaping the future of strategic measurement at StackAdapt. This leader will transform client analytics from a reporting function into a strategic advisory organization that helps clients make better business decisions before, during, and after every campaign. This role sits at the intersection of client strategy, analytics, product innovation, and organizational leadership. You'll partner directly with executive stakeholders, influence the direction of our measurement capabilities, and build a team recognized for its expertise, curiosity, and ability to solve complex business problems. You'll also lead analytics strategy across StackAdapt's priority growth verticals, including B2B, Commerce, Political, Enterprise, and HoldCos. That means becoming an expert in how these industries measure success, anticipating where they're headed, and helping both clients and internal teams stay ahead of those changes. StackAdapt is a remote-first company; however, for this position, we are prioritizing candidates based in the Eastern or Central US to allow for regular, in-person collaboration with key clients. What You'll Be Doing: - Lead and grow a team of Client Analytics Partners, setting the vision for how strategic measurement is delivered across the organization. - Evolve the team from a reporting function into a trusted advisory practice that helps clients make smarter business decisions through measurement, experimentation, and analytics. - Partner with executive stakeholders, internally and externally, to develop long-term measurement strategies that align business objectives, marketing investments, and platform capabilities. - Help clients establish measurement strategies at the beginning of engagements by defining success metrics, testing plans, learning agendas, and business outcomes before campaigns launch. - Develop scalable frameworks that increase measurement maturity, helping clients evolve from foundational reporting to advanced optimization and business impact. - Define how success is measured for the organization through client adoption, strategic influence, business outcomes, executive engagement, retention, and meaningful product feedback. - Own analytics strategy for StackAdapt's priority verticals by developing deep expertise, staying ahead of industry changes, and translating those insights into practical guidance for clients and internal teams. - Serve as a trusted advisor to executive client stakeholders, balancing StackAdapt's perspective with industry trends to help clients make confident, informed decisions. - Invest in the growth of your team through coaching, mentorship, and hands-on partnership. Lead by example, sharing knowledge openly and helping others build confidence in both technical expertise and executive consulting. - Build repeatable frameworks, playbooks, and best practices that allow the team to deliver consistently high-quality strategic guidance at scale. - Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Reporting Architecture, Data Architecture, Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing to influence future measurement capabilities and improve how we support clients. - Lead the team in adopting AI as a natural part of everyday work, using it to improve research, insight generation, communication, documentation, and operational efficiency while reserving human expertise for the moments where it matters most. - Continuously improve how the organization operates by identifying opportunities to simplify work, remove friction, automate repetitive tasks, and create more capacity for strategic thinking. - Anticipate what's next by evaluating industry trends, evolving client needs, emerging technologies, and organizational priorities to help the team stay ahead of the market. What You'll Bring to the Table - 10+ years of experience leading analytics, measurement, consulting, or client strategy teams. - Experience building and scaling high-performing organizations through thoughtful leadership, clear vision, and a commitment to developing people. - Deep expertise in digital measurement, experimentation, attribution, marketing analytics, and performance measurement. - Strong business acumen with the ability to connect analytics to meaningful business decisions and executive conversations. - Experience partnering directly with senior executives and becoming a trusted advisor on complex business challenges. - Expertise in Enterprise, B2B, Commerce, Ecommerce, HoldCos, or similar industries, or a demonstrated ability to quickly become a subject matter expert. - Demonstrated success building frameworks, methodologies, or consulting approaches that improve client outcomes and organizational effectiveness. - AI fluency. You naturally incorporate AI into how you research, solve problems, communicate, and lead teams. You're excited to experiment with new capabilities, share what works, and help others become more effective without losing sight of the human relationships that define great consulting. - A builder's mindset. You enjoy creating new capabilities, improving how work gets done, and leaving teams stronger than you found them. - A collaborative leadership style. You build trust through action, invite different perspectives, give credit generously, and raise the quality of work by making the people around you better.
