For startups & growing businesses

Build the demand engine your next stage of growth requires.

I help founders and growing businesses turn scattered marketing activity into a clear acquisition plan—selecting the right channels, platforms, budgets, people and partners, then helping put the plan into action.

When growth outpaces the setup

The business is moving. Marketing needs a clearer plan.

Early growth often creates a mix of tools, channels and outside support before the company has decided how the pieces should work together.

01

Lead flow is inconsistent

Demand depends on referrals, the founder’s network or isolated campaigns.

02

Spending lacks direction

Channels are active, but budgets and customer-acquisition economics are unclear.

03

Tools were added piecemeal

The CRM and marketing platforms do not provide a dependable view of the funnel.

04

The next hire is uncertain

It is unclear which roles belong in-house and where an agency or specialist makes sense.

What we can build

The decisions and operating pieces behind repeatable growth.

The work starts with the company’s stage, customer and economics. Platforms and campaigns follow those decisions—not the other way around.

01

Growth and acquisition plan

Define the target customer, funnel, growth priorities and the measures that will guide investment.

02

Channels and budgets

Choose the right mix of paid, owned, partner and account-based programs, with a budget the business can support.

03

CRM and marketing platforms

Select and configure the tools needed for lead capture, follow-up, automation and reporting.

04

Demand generation programs

Build campaigns, landing pages, audience plans and operating practices that create qualified demand.

05

Team and hiring support

Define roles, screen candidates and help leaders assess the marketing skills the company needs next.

06

Agency and vendor support

Evaluate outside partners, clarify scopes and establish the expectations needed to manage their work.

Strategy through execution

A plan is only useful if the business can put it to work.

I can help make the core decisions, build the operating pieces and work alongside the team during launch. The scope is matched to the company’s stage and internal resources.

  1. 01

    Diagnose

    Assess the customer, current funnel, economics, resources and immediate growth pressure.

  2. 02

    Build

    Set channel priorities, budgets, platforms, roles, partner requirements and measurement.

  3. 03

    Activate

    Launch the work, establish reporting and help the team make adjustments based on results.

Ways to work together

Start with the level of support the business needs now.

Each engagement begins with a defined business need, a clear scope and an honest assessment of what should happen next.
