Marketing clarity for startup leaders under real pressure

I help founders and first-time marketing leaders make confident marketing decisions—so growth supports revenue, runway, and scale.

Marketing isn’t the real problem. Decision overload is.

Startup marketing leaders are expected to:

  • Generate pipeline and revenue

  • Support a PLG or sales motion

  • Prove traction to investors and boards

  • Hire and scale marketing responsibly

  • Make bets with limited data and limited runway

All while navigating constant urgency, shifting priorities, and pressure to “just try something.”

The result?
Marketing becomes reactive, scattered, and exhausting—without the clarity leadership actually needs to scale.
