Founders, small businesses, and “department of 1” marketers
You get
Direct, senior-level strategic input

Not every marketing question needs a formal engagement.

Sometimes you just need an experienced outside perspective. Someone to react to a campaign idea, look over a content calendar, weigh in on a hire, or tell you honestly whether your positioning holds up.

But hiring an agency or starting a project for one question doesn't make sense. So the question sits, or you go to AI and get an answer you don’t quite trust.

Who it’s for

  • Founders and small business owners. You're doing marketing on top of everything else and want a gut-check from someone who's done it for 20+ years.

  • "Department of 1" marketing directors. You're the whole team. You need a thought partner, not another vendor.

  • You need this when… you're facing one specific decision or challenge and want an informed second opinion before you commit.

What’s included

FAQ

Questions, answered

What can I bring to a session?
Anything on your marketing plate: a campaign, a content calendar, a hire, a positioning question, a tricky stakeholder conversation. If it's marketing, it's fair game.
What happens on the discovery call?
It's a quick 15 minutes to understand your challenge and ensure it's a good fit for individual consulting. We want your first paid session to start with the real work, not background.
Do unused hours expire?
No, but availability may be limited if you wait too long to schedule. We recommend using your sessions within one quarter.
Can I apply hours toward a larger engagement later?
Typically not. We'll use the discovery call to ensure that individual consulting is the right approach for your needs.
