With 30 years of top-tier experience as a Fractional CMO and Executive Creative Director, I help growth-stage companies bridge strategic marketing with award-winning creative. My sweet spot? Unifying brand and performance across omnichannel campaigns—think Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Programmatic Media, and a touch of AI-driven magic—to drive results that are as measurable as they are memorable. I’m not just here to deliver the usual marketing spiel; I bring a unique mix of business savvy and creative chops to the table. And yes, when I’m not transforming brands, I teach improv and have even opened as a stand-up for major touring comedians. (Yes, I can make your audience laugh and your campaigns convert.) About Me Growth-stage companies often face a fragmented, inconsistent marketing approach, struggling with disjointed creative efforts (or "random acts of marketing" as I am famous for calling them), ineffective ad spend, and a lack of cohesive strategy across platforms. These challenges stall growth, create inefficiencies, and dilute brand impact. Without an integrated, omnichannel marketing strategy led by a senior expert, you risk wasted ad spend, missed audience connections, and campaigns that lack the creative power to stand out. You’re constantly patching rather than building for growth. As a Fractional CMO and Executive Creative Director, I bring 30 years of award-winning experience across branding, omnichannel media buying, programmatic, and AI-driven insights. My approach aligns branding and performance, creating powerful campaigns that resonate with audiences while driving measurable ROI across Google Ads, Facebook Ads, programmatic channels, and more. I help growth-stage companies unify their marketing, optimizing each channel for higher performance and consistent brand identity. Skills & Expertise: Fractional CMO Services: Strategic marketing oversight for companies with $3M+ revenue, including goal setting, KPI development, and team alignment across all channels. Omnichannel Media Buying: Expertise in cross-platform media strategy, optimizing ad spend across Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, programmatic, and native advertising platforms. Programmatic Media Strategy: Data-driven programmatic campaigns, from segmentation and targeting to performance optimization, leveraging tools like DSPs and AI insights. Executive Creative Direction: Creative leadership across campaign ideation, storytelling, and brand identity, ensuring cohesive narratives that captivate and convert. Branding & Positioning: Crafting distinctive brand voices, consistent messaging, and strategic positioning to elevate market perception and drive loyalty. Advanced Analytics & AI: Utilizing AI for predictive insights, audience segmentation, sentiment analysis, and real-time optimization to improve ad performance and ROI. Content Strategy & Creative Development: From social media and video content to long-form storytelling, I create content strategies that align with brand goals and engage audiences effectively. Services Offered Brand Strategy & Identity Development: Comprehensive brand positioning, voice development, and messaging strategies. Full-Funnel Marketing Strategy: End-to-end funnel design, integrating top, middle, and bottom-funnel strategies with analytics to track impact at each stage. Cross-Platform Media Planning & Buying: Custom media plans that optimize ad placements and budget allocation across Google Ads, Facebook Ads, programmatic, and social platforms. Creative Direction & Campaign Management: High-impact, data-driven campaigns across channels, leveraging award-winning creative techniques to drive engagement. Digital Advertising (Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Programmatic Media): Paid social and search expertise, from ad setup to continuous optimization and reporting for scalable growth. I am the author of a book on programmatic media and the publisher of Programmatic Media Expert. Analytics & Performance Optimization: Advanced analytics for tracking campaign performance, understanding audience behavior, and making real-time adjustments. AI-Enhanced Marketing Solutions: Leveraging AI for content generation, ad targeting, and predictive analytics, enabling faster, smarter decision-making.MarketingStartup CompanyBrandingDisplay AdReddit MarketingSocial Media MarketingTwitter/X Ads ManagerBrand GuidelinesMarketing StrategyMedia PlanningProgrammatic CampaignMedia BuyingStartup ConsultingCopywriting - $200 hourly
