<main role="main">
<p>I am a Growth Advisor at Curamando and Conversionista, part of Eidra, in the Netherlands.</p>
<p>At Eidra, we help brands turn brand awareness into incremental profit by optimizing their websites based on insights and data for conversions, users, and search engines. My main focus is Growth & Technical Marketing, at the intersection of <abbr title="Conversion Rate Optimization">CRO</abbr>, <abbr title="Search Engine Optimization">SEO</abbr>, and Web Analytics.</p>
<p>To make this less abstract. Together with you, I want to make your website better. Here are a few concrete examples of things I enjoy working on. I help businesses with their online marketing strategy, Google Tag Manager (Server-side) implementations, Google Analytics 4 implementations, <abbr title="Consent Management Platform">CMP</abbr> and advertising platforms implementations, domain migrations, technical <abbr title="Search Engine Optimization">SEO</abbr>, <abbr title="Conversion Rate Optimization">CRO</abbr>, and Cookie and Privacy website audits.</p>
<p>I have worked with multiple clients including OpenUp, TreeHouse (Huurwoningen.nl & Pararius.nl), Investment Officer, Moneybird, The Social Hub formerly The Student Hotel, TEDxAmsterdam, VST Fire Solutions, and others.</p>
<!-- multi-disciplined approach, holistic, contextual view is what drives growth -->
<p>Before I started my freelance business I was a Growth Marketing Manager at VanMoof for 3 years. I optimized the websites based on insights and data for the user and VanMoof. To achieve the company’s ultimate goal of getting the next billion on bikes.</p>
<p>Previously I worked as a Senior <abbr title="Conversion Rate Optimization">CRO</abbr> Analyst at Fietsenwinkel.nl, a Conversion Specialist and Web Analyst at The Next Web (TNW), an Online Marketeer (focus on <abbr title="Conversion Rate Optimization">CRO</abbr> & <abbr title="Search Engine Optimization">SEO</abbr>) at Van der Valk Exclusief, and I was an Online Business Developer at Budeco.</p>
<p>In 2017 I graduated <a href="https://onlinedialogue.nl/nieuws/master-online-persuasion-7/" title="Master of Online Persuasion #7 afgerond" rel="noopener" target="_blank">cum laude</a><sup>[<a href="https://vreeman.com/img/master-of-online-persuasion.jpg" title="I missed the graduation party because I was in Japan, but thanks to technology I was still there." rel="noopener" target="_blank">1</a>]</sup> with the <a href="https://onlinedialogue.nl/opleiding/opleiding-mop/" title="Master of Online Persuasion by Online Dialogue" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Master of Online Persuasion</a> by Online Dialogue. In this course, I learned how the consumer's brain works, how rational and irrational we humans are, and how to influence the decisions and experiences of a consumer's brain. In an ethical manner of course.</p>

<dt id="ga">Two Google Analytics tools</dt>
<dd>
<p>To quickly add <abbr title="Urchin Tracking Module">UTM</abbr> tags to an URL, I've created a <a href="https://vreeman.com/utm" title="Google Analytics 4 URL Builder by Simon Vreeman"><strong>Google Analytics 4 UTM Campaign URL Builder</strong></a>. By filling in the <abbr title="Urchin Tracking Module">UTM</abbr> Medium, <abbr title="Urchin Tracking Module">UTM</abbr> Source and <abbr title="Urchin Tracking Module">UTM</abbr> Campaign you automatically get the URL with the tags appended. Besides that, you can check the URL with multiple tools, such as Google Pagespeed Insights or Google Structured Data Testing Tool.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://vreeman.com/mp" title="Google Analytics Measurement Protocol Hit Builder by Simon Vreeman"><strong>Google Analytics Measurement Protocol Hit Builder</strong></a> is a Proof of Concept to show how easy it is to send hits to a Google Analytics property. This can really help you figure out how to send transactions for your back-end e-commerce systems to Google Analytics without relying on client-side JavaScript.</p>

<dd>
<p>The costs of using an A/B testing tool, such as Google Optimize 360, Optimizely or <abbr title="Visual Website Optimizer">VWO</abbr>, were rising without providing extra value. That is why I started developing this script at Valk Exclusief with Online Dialogue. At <abbr title="The Next Web">TNW</abbr> I continued optimizing the script with Martijn Scheijbeler to make even leaner and more flexible.</p>
<p>In this article, I explain how and why I used it at <abbr title="The Next Web">TNW</abbr>: <a href="https://thenextweb.com/voice/2016/03/03/marketing-the-tnw-way-9-ab-testing-with-google-tag-manager/" title="Marketing the TNW Way #9: A/B Testing with Google Tag Manager" rel="noopener" target="_blank">A/B Testing with Google Tag Manager</a>.</p>

You can find it <a href="https://github.com/thenextweb/gtm" title="Google Tag Manager example container by The Next Web" rel="noopener" target="_blank">on Github</a> and add it to your own <abbr title="Google Tag Manager">GTM</abbr> container.</p>
