Wanted: Freelance Dev who Gets Tracking (5)

Heya!

Here at FunnelFlux we get quite a lot of people who want help with tracking implementation for their specific scenario.

Usually its a multi-stage funnel with some random systems involved, possible CRM, etc.

At the moment we don't have a support team member who's also a developer that understands tracking, who can actually dive in, get on calls with a customer directly and implement, test and refine their tracking setup.

So customers ask me if I know of anyone who could help them -- a freelance dev who understands AM/tracking and can deal with custom implementation, scripting and all that jazz to make their flow work as intended. I think this is a sought after position in AM in general -- for those who don't already have a full-time dev on their team.

I'm looking for someone (or multiple people) who I can endorse and direct customers to -- e.g. via Upwork or similar. Most customers are happy to pay $25-100/h for this kind of work so its easy money for a developer.

On my end I'll create developer-focused docs and help directly with questions/understanding so those devs can have a strong handle on how FunnelFlux works. My goal is simple -- I just need someone who can actually go do the implementation and testing work, as I don't have the time/hands for it.

If you know of anyone who might fit the bill, flick me a DM!

Yeah its a really useful role to have but quite a difficult one for most trackers to deal with.

Besides the obvious issues with finding someone good at both support AND the development side, it quickly becomes a service that needs to be $ gated. Otherwise you'd have a lot of users paying $50-100/mo who all want someone to just do everything for them on calls, which then turns into an unprofitable activity for the company and ultimately the user (who never learns).

The issue I've found with this (and I'm sure as someone who owns a tracker you've seen the same) is that very few developers, even good ones, really understand tracking/analytics/attribution. The few who do tend to rise in the ranks extremely quickly. I know of 4, and all of them have all the work they could ever handle. If it was me I'd try making some 'affiliate tracking for developers' crash course, and then hire jr/mid level developers and provide them training. A bit more work up front, but then you'd have a system where you'd be set going forward.

I'd steal a page from RedTrack and Voluum too. Really good documentation with email support that basically can tell you which page to look at in the documentation. That will help people without turning into Done For You.
