Three ways I can help
Most purpose-driven organizations are working to grow the same things: donors, members, attendees, and revenue. I bring the rigor of a performance marketer and the heart of someone who has spent her career inside organizations where the mission comes first.
Every engagement starts the same way: find where growth is getting stuck, and fix that before spending more.
Growth Audit
Fixed fee · 3 to 4 weeks
A full review of how people find you, where they drop off or fail to renew, and whether your data can tell what's working. You'll leave with a clear diagnosis, a prioritized plan for what to stop, fix, and fund next, and a working session with your leadership team.
Best for: organizations investing in marketing without a clear picture of what it's returning.
Fractional CMO
Monthly retainer · typically 3 to 12 months
I lead your marketing part-time: planning, budget, agencies, board reporting, and building or coaching your team. You get senior leadership and a seat at the table, without a full-time executive salary.
Best for: organizations between marketing leaders, covering a leave, gearing up for a major campaign, or not yet ready for a full-time CMO.
Campaign Management and Program Builds
Project-based · scoped to your goal
Acquisition, fundraising, membership renewal, enrollment, event, and business launch programs, including the CRM, automation, and tracking behind them. Each one is designed, launched, and measured end-to-end, and built so your team can run it after I step back.
Best for: a clear goal with a deadline, like a year-end appeal, a membership drive, an enrollment season, a conference, or a new franchise opening.
Develop marketing and/or media campaigns strategy and plans
Manage outsourced agencies to ensure you get what you paid for
Optimize campaign success with an outside perspective that can audit existing programs and provide fresh ideas
Support and augment the team when the acting CMO doesn't have the necessary time or resources
Build new marketing teams and facilitate new hires
Backfill staff who are on leave or backfill a vacant position until a permanent hire is in place
