/digital-marketing-pro:campaign-audit — Cross-Channel Current-State Audit

This skill produces a single document describing **everything currently running for a brand across every channel** — what's live, what's spending, what's performing, what's leaking budget, what's quietly broken. It's the prerequisite for any informed `/digital-marketing-pro:campaign-plan`, `/digital-marketing-pro:performance-report`, or `/digital-marketing-pro:competitor-analysis` refresh.

Context efficiency

Heavy skill. **Grep before Read** any referenced file, then `Read` only matched ranges with `offset` + `limit`. List the brand's data dir (`~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/`, or `$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA/digital-marketing-pro/brands/{slug}/` when that env var is set) before opening files. On re-invocation mid-session, skip files already in context.

Use this skill:

• **During agency onboarding** (step 8 of the agency-operations workflow) — within the first week of taking over a new client, before you propose anything new.
• **Before a quarterly campaign refresh** — establish the baseline you're going to argue against.
• **After a brand acquisition or restructure** — when ownership of marketing changes hands and the new team needs a single source of truth for "what are we actually running?"
• **After a long pause in account work** (vacation, paternity leave, contract gap) — to re-establish situational awareness without making changes.

Why this skill exists

When agencies inherit a brand, the previous owner's "campaign plan" is usually a 40-tab Google Sheet, six dashboards on three platforms, and a list of API integrations nobody remembers wiring up. Without an explicit audit, the new team either (a) silently lets things keep running while they ramp up — and inherits the mistakes, or (b) tears it down and rebuilds — and loses the institutional knowledge of what was actually working.

This skill produces the third option: a single audit document that captures the live state cleanly, scores each item, and feeds directly into the next planning conversation. It is **read-only** — it never pauses, modifies, or kills a campaign.

What gets audited

| Channel | What's inventoried | What's scored | |---|---|---| | **Paid search** | Active Google Ads / Microsoft Ads campaigns, ad groups, keywords, daily budgets, last-modified dates | Spend efficiency, quality scores, conversion-tracking health, negative-keyword coverage, dead ad groups still spending | | **Paid social** | Active Meta / LinkedIn / TikTok / Pinterest / X campaigns + audiences + creatives | Frequency, learning-phase status, creative fatigue, audience overlap, attribution-window correctness | | **Retail media** | Amazon Ads, Walmart Connect, Instacart Ads accounts and campaigns | ACOS, branded vs non-branded split, share-of-voice for top SKUs | | **Email** | Active automations / journeys (Klaviyo, HubSpot, ActiveCampaign, Brevo, Marketo), send lists, deliverability metrics | Open rates, sender reputation, list hygiene age, GDPR/DPDPA consent provenance for every list, broken templates | | **Organic social** | Posting cadence per platform (last 90 days), engagement rate, follower trend | Cadence consistency, AI-disclosure compliance, locale coverage | | **Content / SEO** | Pages publishing in last 90 days, ranking keywords (top 50), schema markup state, internal-link density | Indexation health (GSC), Core Web Vitals, AI-Overview citation rate, technical-debt items | | **AEO / GEO** | Brand mention rate across Google AI Mode, Perplexity, ChatGPT search, Claude search, Copilot, Gemini App | Mention rate vs top 5 competitors, citation share, recommendation share | | **CRM + automation** | Live workflows in HubSpot / Salesforce / Pipedream / Zapier / Make, segments in use, lifecycle stage mappings | Orphaned workflows (no recent execution), broken connectors, duplicate-contact rate | | **Web analytics** | GA4 properties + GSC properties wired to which domains, conversion events configured, consent-mode state | Tag-firing health, event-naming consistency, attribution model selected | | **Influencer / PR** | Active creator deals (live + paused), contracted deliverables, FTC-disclosure compliance | Cost per engagement, creator-audience-authenticity check, disclosure completeness | | **Compliance posture** | Active brand-level claims, EU AI Act Article 50 disclosure state on AI content, C2PA signing state, cookie/consent banner version | Each regulated claim mapped to a primary source; missing disclosures escalated |

The audit also captures **what's NOT happening** that should be — channels with zero activity, missing tracking pixels, expired API tokens, abandoned automations.

Process

Step 0 — Prerequisites

This skill assumes:

1. The brand profile exists and `/digital-marketing-pro:validate-profile --brand {brand}` returns `passed` or `passed_with_warnings`. If it returns `blocked`, refuse and tell the user to fix the blockers first — auditing on a broken profile produces a corrupt baseline. 2. Connector credentials for the channels in scope are configured (Google Ads, Meta Business, LinkedIn Campaign Manager, the email platform, the CRM, GA4, GSC, etc.). Missing connectors degrade the audit gracefully — they don't block it; the audit just notes "{channel} skipped — connector not configured" in the relevant section.

Step 1 — Confirm the active brand and audit scope
