Marketing Plus, Inc. | Full-Time | Hybrid | Albert Lea, MN

Marketing Plus, Inc. is looking for a full-time Marketing Coordinator to join our team. This role will serve as a primary client contact, campaign planner, and creative marketing resource for businesses throughout the Twin Cities, Southern Minnesota, and Northern Iowa regions.

The ideal candidate has experience in marketing, client communication, and project coordination, with the ability to help clients develop strategic annual marketing plans while also staying responsive to their evolving advertising and marketing needs throughout the year. This person should be a self-starter who is reliable, ambitious, organized, creative, and able to meet deadlines.

Position Overview

The Marketing Coordinator will work directly with clients to understand their marketing goals, recommend effective strategies, and coordinate campaigns across multiple channels. This includes digital advertising, website-related marketing, direct mail, billboards, letters, flyers, printed materials, and other traditional marketing efforts.

This is also a creative role. Clients often rely on Marketing Plus, Inc. to help develop campaign messaging, promotional ideas, advertising angles, and content direction for both planned campaigns and impromptu marketing needs. The right candidate should be comfortable brainstorming ideas, writing or guiding campaign messaging, and helping clients turn their goals into clear, effective marketing concepts.

In addition to helping clients develop annual marketing plans, this position will also require regular quarterly check-ins to discuss how their needs, priorities, promotions, staffing, services, or business goals may have changed. Many client needs also come up unexpectedly throughout the year, so this person should be comfortable having frequent conversations with clients by phone and email, gathering details for new requests, and helping move those requests forward with the appropriate internal team or vendor.

This person will collaborate closely with our internal graphic design team, website design team, database analyst, and our printing partner, Church Offset Printing, to ensure projects are planned, organized, creative, strategic, and completed accurately. The right candidate should be able to take initiative, manage multiple priorities, follow through on details, and keep projects moving toward completion.

Key Responsibilities

Responsibilities include meeting with clients to discuss marketing needs, developing annual marketing plans, coordinating digital and traditional advertising campaigns, communicating with vendors, and managing timelines and project details.

This role will also include conducting quarterly client check-ins, responding to client calls and emails, gathering information for new marketing requests, creating quote planners and direct mail orders within our software system, and using ClickUp to manage digital advertising and website-related projects.

The Marketing Coordinator will also help develop campaign messaging, creative direction, promotional concepts, and marketing recommendations based on each client’s goals, audience, and services. This may include helping shape the messaging for email campaigns, social media ads, direct mail pieces, flyers, letters, billboards, website promotions, and other marketing materials.

The Marketing Coordinator will work with internal teams to keep client work moving smoothly from planning through completion. The right candidate should be comfortable balancing multiple projects, communicating clearly with clients and team members, meeting deadlines, and helping ensure marketing campaigns are organized, strategic, creative, and aligned with client goals.

Work Schedule & Flexibility

This is a full-time, 40-hour-per-week hybrid position. Mondays are required in-office at our Albert Lea, MN location, with additional in-office days as needed for client meetings, team collaboration, planning sessions, or project needs.

Marketing Plus, Inc. prides itself on schedule flexibility and putting family first. We understand the importance of work-life balance and offer flexibility whenever possible, as long as it does not interfere with meeting deadlines, communicating with clients, attending required meetings, and keeping projects moving forward.

Ideal Qualifications

We are looking for someone with experience in marketing, client communications, and project management systems. A general understanding of digital marketing, print marketing, direct mail, and campaign planning is preferred.

Strong communication skills, attention to detail, organization, creativity, and the ability to work with both clients and internal teams are essential for this position. The ideal candidate should be proactive, reliable, ambitious, deadline-driven, and comfortable building long-term relationships with clients while helping them navigate both planned campaigns and impromptu marketing needs.

The right person should also enjoy creative thinking and feel comfortable contributing ideas for campaign messaging, advertising concepts, and marketing strategies that help clients communicate clearly with their customers.
