FRACTIONAL CMO
Accelerate the growth of your brand.
It's time to get serious about your marketing... but it's not your thing. Hand it over to someone who lives and breathes brand strategy, who has the experience building and motivating teams, and who can get the traction that builds momentum.
the pleasure of delegation
Let's take marketing off your to-do list.
Let's stop worrying about whether you're posting on Instagram enough or if your Google ads are really moving the needle. Let's take all of those marketing tasks off of your plate, giving it to the experts who will ensure the strategy is clear and the communication is ever-present.
what it entails
strategy & campaign development
I'll conduct the full strategy process, from research through to planning and campaign development. You'll always know what we're doing and crucially, why we're doing it.
team management & training
I'll work with (or hire) your in-house team to ensure the highest standard of marketing campaigns and overall performance.
c-suite representation
Whether it's pitching to the board or providing the marketing point-of-view at the executive level, I'll ensure alignment across the business.
i know the startup world
As both a marketer and an investor, I know what it takes to scale a brand.
My 'CMO' hat is one of my favourites, but I'm thrilled any time I get to don my advisor and angel investor hat. This has me seeing inside of many startups, with a high bar for excellence and a steady eye on performance. I know what it takes to scale a brand and will use the same measure of quality and expectation that I bring to your company as the companies I invest in.
if you're not sure your marketing is performing...
What actually is 'best practice'? What kind of ROI can you expect? We'll set the goals, focus our efforts and continually track our performance to always improve.
If you don't have time to do it yourself...
Time may very well be our most precious resource - and marketing can take a lot of it. You can free up your time and capacity, bringing in expertise and experience to do it more efficiently.
if you'd like to get back to what you love about building your business...
There's always that moment of, 'you could do it - but should you?' . Scaling a business is hard and we all need to play to our strengths. Return to the flow and the passion, doing what you do best.
