Transformed Meta.com from a static wayfinding page into a full-funnel AI commerce engine — architecting the digital strategy behind two major hardware launches, a cultural drops program, and the navigation infrastructure for Meta's entire wearables future.
When I joined Meta's web marketing team, the February 2023 analytics told the story: ~50–70% exit rate, only 1.3% of visitors clicking any Buy CTA. The site had traffic. It wasn't converting.
The deeper challenge was consumer perception. Research showed most visitors saw Quest as just a gaming console. Mixed reality was real and revolutionary — but the web wasn't telling that story. I was handed the brief and the problem. Everything after was execution.
I joined as Web Marketing Manager for Meta Quest 3, authored the full web marketing strategy from scratch, and executed it across 20+ touchpoints. Meta promoted me to Lead. I then led the Quest 3S launch with a full XFN squad executing against the strategy I set.
Authored the Stinson Web Marketing Kickoff — the source of truth for the entire launch. Defined Browsers vs Shoppers audience framework, emotional goals (Joy + Excitement), phased roadmap, and agency brief.
Led XFN squad: IMM, Creative, Design, Copy, SEO, DS, Merch, CRM, S&I, Media.Monks. Authored the full web brief. Shifted strategy from single-SKU gaming to Quest 3 family portfolio positioning.
Every page decision flowed from the same framework — synthesizing marketing insights, web metrics, consumer research, messaging guidelines, and SEO strategy into content tailored to exactly where each visitor was in the purchase journey.
Meta.com web marketing isn't one page — it's an entire digital ecosystem. For each launch, I managed the full stack from homepage through PDPs, experience hubs, compare pages, accessories, and navigation — across 20+ global markets, in multiple languages, on a 4–5 month production cycle.
The 9.7× wearables conversion spike at Connect '24 is the single most telling number — when strategy, product, and launch moment aligned, the site performed. By that point, only 32% of visitors were hitting the primary PDP (vs 50% in 2023), meaning the portfolio strategy had worked: visitors were exploring the full ecosystem.
