How It Works

All programmes are tailored, but a typical 3-month journey looks like this.

Month 1 – Planning

  • Initial kick-off call (Week 1)

    A deep dive into your business challenges, goals, marketing resources, team, and expectations. We’ll align on objectives, deliverables, and key success metrics.

  • Performance audit (Week 1)

    A comprehensive review of your current marketing activities and technology stack to assess your starting point.

  • Strategy workshops (Week 2)

    In-depth sessions to:

    • Define your target customer and map their purchase journey.

    • Analyse competition, positioning, and pricing to identify market opportunities.

    • Establish a clear value proposition and brand voice.

  • Marketing plan & roadmap (Weeks 3–4)

    A structured 3-month plan outlining key marketing channels, strategy, timelines, and success metrics.

By the end of Month 1, you’ll have a clear strategy and an actionable plan ready for execution.

Months 2–3 – Execution, Iteration & Optimisation

Now it’s time to put your plan into action. Over the next two months, you’ll test marketing channels, refine messaging, and gather customer insights to scale what works.

Marketing at the seed stage is challenging—every channel is competitive, and what worked early on won’t always scale. These strategy sessions will help you cut through the noise, refine your approach, and identify what truly moves the needle, so you can build a repeatable growth engine and scale with confidence.

What’s Not Included

This programme is for businesses that want to empower their in-house marketing but need a senior strategic guidance. If you lack the resources to handle day-to-day tasks, my Fractional CMO + Execution Support services are more suitable.

  • Daily project management

    You (or someone on your team) remain responsible for day-to-day task tracking, timelines, and follow-ups. My focus is on guiding and advising—keeping you strategically aligned and accountable to your goals.

  • Hands-on execution

    Unlike the Fractional CMO packages, the Strategic Advisor Programme doesn’t include configuring software, building landing pages, or writing marketing assets. I’ll provide strategic outlines and feedback on deliverables, but the actual implementation is up to you and your team.

Who It’s For

The ideal traits of a good-fit company:

  • You see growth as a company-wide effort, not just marketing.

  • You understand results take time and good marketing requires robust systems.

  • You have in-house talent or existing contractors to manage daily tasks and project coordination.

  • You're prepared to devote time and energy to implementing the strategy, guided by me—an expert who has done this before.

  • You operate in B2C tech, particularly in AI or marketplaces, where I have deep expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions

    Execution typically includes tasks like designing and writing publish-ready marketing materials, configuring software, or managing ad campaigns. Those responsibilities remain with you or your team.

    While I can’t guarantee specific outcomes, most clients see increased customer numbers, higher conversions, reduced CAC (customer acquisition cost), better audience engagement, and stronger overall marketing ROI when they follow strategic advice and test-learn-adjust consistently.
