How we work

Know what happens after the first conversation.

We establish the business priorities, choose a manageable plan and build a working rhythm around delivery. The first 90 days create direction, a baseline and practical progress.

Before we start

Make the remit clear.

The commercial goal

What should marketing help achieve? Which buyers, products and markets matter most? What is holding progress back?

The responsibilities

Which decisions and workstreams do I own? What does your team deliver? Where do external specialists contribute?

The practical setup

Agree capacity, budget, access to people and systems, reporting and the rhythm of the collaboration.

The first 90 days

From understanding to execution.

Weeks 1-2

Understand the business

Review commercial goals, buyers, positioning, website, funnel, sales process and existing performance.

Establish what is working, where data can be trusted and which problems need attention first.

Output: A shared diagnosis and initial priorities.

Weeks 2-4

Agree the plan

Turn the diagnosis into a focused 90-day roadmap, with owners, success measures and realistic resource requirements.

Start urgent improvements while the wider plan takes shape.

Output: An agreed plan and active priority work.

Month 2 onwards

Deliver the work

Execute the agreed campaigns, content, website improvements, CRM work or sales enablement. Coordinate your team and specialists around the same priorities.

Output: Completed work and activity in market.

Every month

Review and adjust

Review what shipped, what changed and what the evidence suggests. Resolve decisions and agree the next priorities.

Output: Clear reporting and a current action plan.

This is an indicative process for ongoing engagements. Scope and pace depend on your starting point, access and agreed capacity. Advisory engagements guide your team’s execution.

A practical working rhythm

Keep priorities and decisions visible.

We maintain a shared view of active work, responsibilities, deadlines and decisions. The meeting cadence fits the engagement and the people involved.

An embedded role involves more regular team coordination. Advisory centres on direction and review. Both need clear priorities and timely decisions.

What I need from you

  • A clear leadership contact and decision-making route
  • Access to relevant product and customer knowledge
  • Access to the systems and data needed for the agreed work
  • Timely feedback and approvals
  • Realistic budget and delivery capacity
Measuring progress

Use evidence that helps you make decisions.

A reliable baseline

Understand tracking gaps and data quality before interpreting traffic, enquiries and pipeline.

Leading indicators

Follow relevant visibility, engagement, conversion and qualified enquiries against the agreed priorities.

Commercial contribution

Track opportunities and revenue where CRM data allows, accounting for attribution limits and the sales cycle.

The first 90 days can establish a stronger foundation and put priority work into market. Commercial results depend on the starting point, product, budget and buying process.

Let’s define a sensible first step.

We can start with a diagnostic, a defined project or an ongoing engagement, depending on the problem you need to solve.
