Go-to-market leadership

for your next stage of growth.

I'm a former CMO and product marketing leader. I help companies from seed to Series C sharpen their company and product narrative, run launches that land, and build the marketing foundation for what comes next.

I can jump in quickly: for a project, as an interim leader, or as a longer-term advisor.

WHO I WORK WITH

Companies at an inflection point

Seed to Series C, where the story, the product line or the team need help to get to the next stage

Founders building marketing for the next stage

At seed and Series A, you're hiring your first marketer and need a clear story before you do. At Series B and C, you're launching more products, adding marketing leaders and need the foundation to scale.

Software companies moving to AI agents

You're shifting from selling software to selling AI agents. Your positioning, pricing and pitch were built for the old model, and your market still sees you that way.

SERVICES

What I help with

Product marketing and growth work with a clear scope and outputs your team keeps.

For companies whose story hasn't kept up with the product

Company and product narrative

Positioning and messaging that explain why you win, for the company and for each product.

  • Competitive map and true differentiators
  • Positioning, messaging and the story behind them
  • A new narrative when the company pivots

For companies with a major release or a new product line

Launches

Launches that land with buyers, your sales team and the market.

  • Launch strategy and tiers
  • Messaging - both internal and external
  • Go-to-market across multiple products

For founders building or rebuilding marketing

Marketing foundation for the next stage

The team, hires and tools to grow from here.

  • Which marketing leader to hire next, and how to hire them
  • A team plan of people and AI agents
  • Interim leadership while you hire

For SaaS companies adding or moving to AI agents

The move to AI agents

Reposition and reprice as you shift from selling software to selling AI agents.

  • Agentic positioning and messaging
  • Pricing shift from seats to usage or outcomes
  • Sales and customer team readiness

Three ways to work together

01

Interim marketing leader

I step in as your interim head of marketing or CMO. I lead the team, set the strategy and keep execution moving while you find your permanent leader, and I help you hire them.

02

Project

A defined piece of work with a clear start and finish, such as a narrative refresh, a launch or a pricing review.

03

Advisory

Regular working sessions with you or your marketing leader. A sounding board for positioning, hiring, pricing and how to use AI agents in marketing.

The order matters

Founders often hire a marketer before they know what to say. That's how a great hire fails in six months.

01

Positioning

Who you really compete with, why you win, and the customer who gets the most value. Built from your customers' words, tested with prospects and investors.

02

The right hire

Your positioning points to your growth motion, and your growth motion points to the marketer you need: a storyteller, a product marketer, or a pipeline builder. Senior leader or hands-on doer.

03

People and AI agents

Your hire leads a team where AI agents handle repeatable work like competitive tracking, battlecards and campaign drafts. Every agent has a person who owns it.

Positioning tells you what kind of marketer you need. Skip it, and you hire someone great for the wrong job.
