Executive-level marketing, revenue systems, and technology leadership for small and mid-sized businesses - without the cost of a full-time hire.

What I can do for you

Built for businesses between $1M and $20M: You've outgrown ad-hoc solutions, but you're not ready to hire a full executive team. Your marketing, your billing and payment systems, and your technology infrastructure all need senior ownership, and today those responsibilities are divided among the owner, a few overextended staff, and a rotating cast of outside vendors.That's the gap I fill. One senior person, on a fractional basis, who owns all of it.
