What this covers

You get a senior marketing leader who takes full ownership of the function. That means setting the strategy, building the team's capability, running the campaigns, and reporting to the board. All the things a full-time CMO would do, at a fraction of the cost.

  • Marketing strategy and annual planning
  • Brand positioning and messaging
  • Team leadership, hiring, and capability building
  • Campaign development and channel strategy
  • Performance reporting and board-level communication
  • Agency and supplier management
  • Go-to-market planning for new products or markets
  • AI tools and workflow integration, so your team moves faster without losing quality.
How it works

We start with a discovery conversation to understand where you are and where you're trying to get to. From there, we agree the scope, the days, and the working rhythm. Typically two to three days per week, embedded in your team and attending key meetings. You get a senior leader, not a consultant who disappears after the slide deck.

Who this is for

Startups and scale-ups that need senior marketing capability but can't justify a full-time CMO salary. Founders who are still running marketing themselves and need to hand it off properly. Companies that have tried agencies and found the accountability missing.
