Market positioning and narrative that makes you the obvious choice — not just the loudest voice.
Account-based campaigns from target list to close — mapped to real named accounts in your CRM.
Full-funnel demand as a system — content, paid, SEO, and nurture working together, not in silos.
Editorial planning and AI-assisted production that positions you as the authority and generates pipeline.
Stack, attribution, reporting, and AI workflow adoption. The layer most teams skip — and always regret.
Proposals, battlecards, and pitch materials that actually get used. Built with sales, not handed to them.
A scoped diagnostic — gaps, quick wins, and a 90-day roadmap. The natural first step for any engagement.
From a global marketing org to a solo founder who needs their first real funnel. The tools differ. The thinking is the same.
I sit with the sales team, understand the customer, and build with my hands — not just my opinions.
Real workflows, not buzzwords. Content pipelines, research automation, reporting systems — built and in use, saving hours every week.
Whatever I build, I document and hand off cleanly. Your team should be stronger when I leave than when I arrived.
