Ways to Work Together

Marketing help that actually shows up in the pipeline.

No decks-for-decks. No branding rabbit holes. Pick the engagement that fits where you are — from a two-week GTM sprint to a full fractional seat at the leadership table.

01 — Signature

Fractional CMO

I plug in as your acting CMO for 6–12 months. Own the GTM operating system, lead the marketing team, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with your CRO.

  • Weekly leadership presence
  • Team structure & hiring plan
  • Pipeline & revenue accountability
Best fit → Seed / Series A–C, no CMO yet or between hires.
02

GTM Strategy Sprint

A focused 4–6 week engagement to rebuild your ICP, category story, and account-based motion — then hand it off to your team with a playbook they can run on Monday.

  • ICP + account tiering
  • Positioning & category narrative
  • 90-day pipeline plan
Best fit → Teams stuck on stale ICP or a fuzzy category.
03

Board & Advisor Seats

I take a small number of long-term advisor seats each year with founders and boards where I can move the needle on revenue strategy and CMO succession.

  • Monthly working sessions
  • Board meeting prep & presence
  • CMO hiring & scorecarding
Best fit → Founder + board seeking outside GTM wisdom.
04

First-Time CMO Coaching

1:1 coaching for newly appointed CMOs and VPs of Marketing. Built from the same frameworks that power CMO Coffee Talk — but private, and about your seat.

  • Biweekly 1:1 sessions
  • Board & CEO communication playbook
  • First-100-days operating rhythm
Best fit → New CMOs in their first 12 months.
05

Keynote & Fireside

Keynotes and firesides on modern B2B marketing, category creation, sales & marketing alignment, and how to lead an empowered CMO seat in the AI era.

  • Kickoffs (SKO / GKO / QBR)
  • Board offsites
  • Industry conferences
Best fit → Revenue orgs, boards, and conference stages.
06

Brand & Category Diagnostic

A one-week deep read of your brand, message, and category position. You walk away with a scored diagnostic and the three moves that will unlock the next stage of growth.

  • Message & site audit
  • Competitive category map
  • Three moves memo
Best fit → Pre-rebrand or pre-fundraise clarity check.

The Short Version

I've sat in every seat — and I know which ones move the number.

I've been an SDR, an AE, a VP of Sales, a CMO, and a CRO. I've launched a category, taken a company from category-defining to global scale, and hired dozens of marketing leaders along the way. I wrote the book B2B teams keep on their desks, and I built the community 4,000+ CMOs turn to when they need real answers.

Now I bring all of that to a small number of founders and CEOs each year — as their fractional CMO, GTM sprint partner, board advisor, or the voice on their kickoff stage.

The Operating System

No forms. No spam. No cold calls.

Three principles I bring to every engagement. If your team already believes them, we'll move fast. If they don't yet, that's exactly the work.

Principle 01

Know who's ready.

Modern marketing starts with a shared account list and the signals that say "this one's in-market right now." Everything downstream — content, ads, SDR plays — bends to that reality.

Principle 02

Show up remarkable.

Your buyer sees the ad, the SDR email, the LinkedIn post, and the demo as one story or four disconnected ones. My job is to make it one — remarkably.

Principle 03

Own the number.

Marketing that hides behind MQLs doesn't scale. I build teams that hold a real pipeline number with sales, and are trusted in the boardroom because of it.

Track Record

Twenty years turning marketing into revenue.

A quick look at the receipts — the seats I've held, the community I've built, and the audience I've earned along the way.

Questions I get a lot

Before we hop on a call.

Who do you typically work with? +
B2B SaaS companies from Seed through post-IPO — usually founders, CEOs, or CROs who are either between CMOs, hiring their first one, or trying to level up the marketing seat they already have. I take on a small number of engagements at a time so I can stay hands-on.
How is a Fractional CMO different from a consultant? +
A consultant sends you a deck. A Fractional CMO sits at your leadership table, owns a number with your CRO, and hires and coaches your team. I show up in the standup, the board meeting, and the pipeline review — not just the strategy offsite.
Do you take equity or advisory shares? +
For a select number of advisor and board seats each year, yes — we'll talk about structure on our first call. Fractional CMO and sprint engagements are cash retainers.
What if I only need help for a few weeks? +
Start with the GTM Strategy Sprint or the Brand & Category Diagnostic. Both are designed to leave your team with something they can run — even if we never work together again.
Where are you based, and do you travel? +
Most work happens remotely with periodic on-sites — board meetings, offsites, SKOs, and keynote stages. I fly for the moments that matter.

Let's build the revenue engine you actually want.

A 30-minute discovery call — no deck, no pitch. We'll talk about where you are, what's stuck, and whether one of my engagements is the right unlock. If not, I'll tell you.
