Hire Me

• Projects take months instead of days or weeks to implement
• You’re flying by the seat of your pants and don’t have a formal marketing plan
• You spend too much time focused on the day-to-day minutiae of your marketing
• You aren’t sure if your marketing is producing a positive ROI
• You’re guessing when it comes to the value of your marketing investments
• Your marketing team is missing at least a few key individuals
• Hiring and vetting team members has been a challenge, and you’ve had mixed results
• You’re unable to audit the technical work quality of your suppliers
• You’re becoming a bottleneck in your marketing processes, slowing things down
• You know you could do things better, but you’re not sure where to start

These are some of the big challenges that business owners face when it comes to their marketing. Image what you could do if you had someone to plan, manage, and scale your entire marketing strategy for you so can take more time back and spend it on the high-value tasks of your business instead.

If you want to grow your company faster without scaling up the burden of managing it all, then you’re in the right place. You need someone on your team with the right tools, strategies, and systems to speed up and sustain your growth. That’s where I can help you!

6, 9 or 12 -month program

Everything is taken care of with our hands-on approach; the research, design, brand dev, communication strategy, optimization, process and system dev, and campaigns.

With dozens of contractors in my network to refer, you’ll have copywriters, designers, salespeople, developers, and others to help fill the gaps in your operation.

And unlike an agency, the team and resources you build during our relationship are yours to keep. If we stop working together, everything continues to run without a hitch. The built up knowledge of your business doesn’t go away.

The areas of holistic marketing that I can most effectively manage and advise and some implementation on include:

• Positioning and marketing strategy
• Brand Development + Management
• Analytics and data
• Website design, development, and user experience
• Content marketing strategy
• Social media marketing
• Email marketing and automation
• Search engine optimization
• Art Direction
• Business Modeling
• Email Marketing
• Creative Direction
• Conversion rate optimization
• Copywriting and direct marketing
• Graphic design, video, and photography

The CMO option is ideal for you if:

• You’re the CEO or founder of a rapidly-growing organization
• You already have a working  brand positioning, messaging, and target audience needs wants, and desires
• You would rather build a team than hire a full-service marketing agency to “do it all” for you
• You’re looking to add additional experience, expertise, and technical proficiency to your team
• You’re looking to gain back your time and leverage your strengths
• Your company is between $3 and $30 million in annual revenue
• A significant portion of your marketing budget is spent online
• You would rather have the management and oversight of your marketing handled for you

Please note: There is a 6-month commitment

I will manage and oversee the implementation of all work. Technical implementation work is billed separately and is not included in my fee. You will need to set aside a budget to help implement the strategies we produce.

Implementation work can be performed by your internal staff, current suppliers, or would be sourced, hired, and managed by me. Third-party suppliers enter into a direct business relationship with you and invoice your company directly.

Unlike other available tiers of service, the following is not included in The Advisor plan.

I don’t do project management. You will need to allocate a certain amount of time every week to the management of your marketing. This includes managing timelines, task follow-ups, adherence to budgets, and team accountabilities.

I don’t facilitate strategic brand workshops. You will need to have a solid brand foundation developed and be able to communicate your brand to me. I only advise on brand strategy and positioning in this program. Please view my brand programs to establish an effective brand positioning seperately.

Access to me is restricted to members of your marketing team. In the CMO tier, your entire organization is able to contact me for advice, direction and questions as long as it relates to your marketing.

I don’t provide in-depth training. If you want to learn new skills (i.e. graphic design or website development), you’ll need to learn how to do it independently. I can help by pointing you in the right direction or we can work out a fixed-fee training project, if required.

I don’t do hands-on implementation work. This includes things like software configuration, entire website wireframes, or writing content/communication drafts with this service. I can, however, provide content general outlines, creative input, strategic direction, and feature mockups/wireframes where needed to illustrate a point.

This investment for this tier of service is $2,900/month with a 6-month minimum commitment. All payments are due in advance of the period. I require 14-days notice for cancellation to unwind my involvement and transition any work over to you.

100% Money-Back Guarantee – If we’re not a good fit, I don’t want your money. If you’re unsatisfied for any reason after the first 30 days, I’ll refund my entire fee in full.
