ICP is undertaking a benchmarking project to strengthen its email marketing strategy and improve the quality of audience data within HubSpot. The goal is to better understand how museums and educational institutions use email to build relationships with their audiences, manage subscriptions, and segment communications, with the findings helping ICP improve subscriber experience, engagement, and campaign performance. Research will focus primarily on peer institutions comparable in size and mission, while also including several larger organizations as industry benchmarks. The project will document the complete subscriber journey—from email sign-up and preference centers through 4–6 weeks of email communications—to analyze email frequency, welcome series, messaging, subject lines, design, content strategy, and audience segmentation practices. Findings will be presented in a benchmark report and presentation that include screenshots, institution profiles, key observations, best practices, and strategic recommendations to inform ICP's future email marketing and CRM strategy.

I’m looking for a few current or former business owners, founders, CEOs, or operators to participate in a short paid marketing exercise. Ideally, you’ve built or operated a business that reached $1M+ in annual revenue at some point. The assignment is simple: Call #1 — 30–60 minutes Bring me one real marketing or growth problem your business is dealing with. Between calls I’ll independently analyze the problem and create whatever strategy or hands-on work makes sense—messaging, campaigns, acquisition ideas, GTM, funnel improvements, positioning, conversion work, etc. Call #2 — 30–60 minutes I’ll walk you through my work and you give me candid feedback. That’s it. Why I’m doing this I’m a marketing leader with 18+ years of experience across growth, demand generation, acquisition, GTM, product marketing, conversion, and marketing leadership. I’m preparing for my next full-time marketing leadership role and want fresh evaluation from experienced business owners using real problems rather than hypothetical case studies. I want to know: Did I identify the right problem? Was the strategy strong? Was the execution useful? Would you actually use the work? If something isn’t strong, tell me. That feedback is part of the point. If you genuinely find the work valuable, I may ask afterward whether you’d be open to a short video testimonial and/or LinkedIn recommendation. Completely optional and not tied to payment. I’m not pitching consulting or fractional services. This is simply a short paid evaluation exercise. I’m looking to work with approximately 5–10 experienced business owners/operators.

Who we are: Stay Golden is a DTC jewelry brand born in Hawaii, six years in and profitable. We grew from viral TikTok into a 7-figure business with a loyal community, weekly product drops, and hero products customers buy again and again. Our designs are inspired by Hawaii and by heritage — pieces that carry meaning, worn daily and passed down. The problem & why we're hiring: Our growth outpaced our brand. The product and community are strong; the brand expression is not. Our visuals are inconsistent — four collections can look like four different companies. We are repositioning from product-led (waterproof, affordable) to identity-led (premium, belonging), the direction is committed, and we have strong raw material. We need a strategist to turn that into a brand foundation the whole team can execute against. The project you'll own: 1. Audit + immersion — site, social, email, ads, customer reviews, our existing brand book (2025), avatar research we've already done, founder working sessions. 2. Positioning + strategy — sharpen the premium positioning: who she is, what world she lives in, why we exist, what we say no to. We have a working customer avatar and a draft manifesto; pressure-test, refine, finalize. 3. Messaging + tone of voice — messaging hierarchy and tone guidelines in plain customer words, including how brand surfaces (site, email, organic) differ from acquisition ads. 4. Brand book revamp — rework our existing deck into a definitive brand bible: premium positioning, our signature motif families (florals are our bestsellers), and a visual-world direction our creative team can shoot against (developed with our founder, who owns art direction). 5. Adoption handoff — guidelines formatted for real use by web, email, organic, and product presentation, plus a working session to walk our team through them. What you're NOT starting from zero with: avatar research dossier, 2025 brand book, draft manifesto, a founder-drafted brand-world thesis, six years of customer reviews and sales data, and a founder with a clear read on which products won and why. Timeline: kickoff late July · v1 of key deliverables by mid-August · final by early September. Budget: $5,000–$10,000 fixed price depending on scope and experience. You: - Need to have exceptional taste - Plugged into fashion - US-based (Los Angeles a plus) - Have repositioned consumer brands upmarket before — ideally jewelry, fashion, or beauty DTC — and can show the before/after - Think in systems (strategy → guidelines → execution), not just decks - Comfortable working directly with a founder who knows her product and customer cold and wants a true partner on brand Growth path: This is a one-time project, but we're building out our brand function. Do exceptional work and there is a real path to an ongoing brand leadership role. To apply, answer these three questions (applications without them won't be reviewed): 1. Link ONE case study where you took a consumer brand upmarket. What changed, and what happened to the business? 2. Spend 15–20 minutes on staygoldenhi.com and our Instagram (@staygoldenhi). What is the first thing you'd change, and why? 3. Briefly describe how you'd run this project start to finish.

We’re hiring a messaging expert to help refine our agency’s core narrative.
