WHY CHOOSE

Expertise with impact

Most marketing problems aren’t caused by bad execution. They’re caused by unclear strategy. I help you fix that first.

Commercial Accountability

Every recommendation connects to a commercial outcome — not just brand metrics.

Strategy Before Spend

I make sure the strategy is right before anything gets built or spent.

Direct Access

You work with me directly. Every conversation is with the person whose name is on the door.

  • Independent audit of all active channels
  • Competitor analysis — where you stand and where the opportunities are
  • Buyer Personas & Customer Journey
  • 6-month Marketing Roadmap — what to do, in what order, with what budget
  • Live presentation to leadership and team

ENTRY SERVICE

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Three advisory engagements: Marketing Audit & Roadmap, Strategic Advisory Retainer, and Fractional CMO Advisory. All advisory — not execution.

If you're not sure where to start, begin with the Audit. If you have activity in place but no independent strategic oversight, the Retainer fits. If marketing is a major part of your business with no senior strategic ownership, the Fractional CMO is the right move. Book a free call if you're unsure — we'll figure it out.

Yes. I don't run campaigns, produce content, or contact vendors. My role is purely advisory — your team and agency own the execution.

Anyone making decisions about marketing spend who isn't confident those decisions are based on a clear strategy — regardless of company size or sector.

The Audit is a fixed €1,500. Retainer from €1,200/month (min. 3 months). Fractional CMO from €2,800/month (min. 6 months). All prices excl. VAT. Scope confirmed before we start — no surprises.

No. My feedback goes to you. You decide what to share with your agency and how. I never contact them independently.

Nothing changes for your team. I advise — I don't instruct, produce, or replace anyone. The goal is to make the whole setup more effective.

Yes. Most sessions are online. I work with companies across Europe and the Middle East.

Book a free 30-minute call. No pitch, no commitment — just a conversation about where you are and what you need.

If you want to make better marketing decisions — yes. If you need someone to run your campaigns or produce content — no.
