I'm Tom, a senior marketing strategist with 10+ years across tech, music and media, now working independently through my strategic marketing consultancy: Wax Digital.
My background covers the full scope of digital marketing. I have deep execution knowledge across individual digital channels, but where I add the most value is at the strategic level: building coherent marketing strategy and auditing how channels work together to drive a converting funnel.
What I can help with:
- Marketing strategy and audits
- GTM planning and launch campaigns
- Positioning and messaging
- Funnel design and conversion architecture
- Audience growth and channel strategy
- Content and social strategy
- Lifecycle and email marketing
- Influencer and partnership strategy
- B2B demand generation and lead gen
- Music marketing - everything above, plus artist brand development, release strategy, DSP platform strategy, and label services
I'm AI proficient and have embedded it into my day-to-day workflows. It significantly increases what I can deliver as a solo operator.
If you need a senior marketing partner who can hit the ground running, let's talk.
