Fractional Marketing & Creative Direction — Built to Drive Momentum

I don’t sell deliverables. I step in as your marketing and creative director — designing the decisions, structure, and priorities that guide everything that gets built next.

Execution follows strategy. Not the other way around.

My work is guided by a proprietary, behavior-driven operating system developed through years of real-world execution.

The Modern Marketing Formula: Humanity + Data + AI = Scalable Growth.

As your Fractional Marketing & Creative Director, I build the decision system behind your marketing — not just the content.

That means I’m responsible for:

  • Deciding what actually matters — and what gets cut

  • Setting clear priorities across channels before resources get burned

  • Defining how your brand shows up, sounds, and behaves

  • Aligning teams and vendors around a single direction

  • Eliminating reactive one-offs and constant resets

 

This is leadership, not labor.
Clarity before content.
Direction before deployment.

That’s how marketing stops stalling — and starts scaling.

Marketing Doesn’t Fail Randomly. It Fails Systemically.

Most organizations aren’t struggling because they lack effort, creativity, or content.

They’re struggling because:

  • Too many channels compete for attention

  • Too many ideas get built without a clear order

  • Teams execute without shared direction

  • Campaigns reset instead of compounding

 

The result is busy marketing that feels productive — but never creates momentum.

How the Work Actually Flows

I design the decision system first — what matters, what comes first, what gets cut, and what actually moves the needle.

I lock your brand into a single, unmistakable signal — visually, verbally, and emotionally — so every touchpoint reinforces instead of competing.

Only after the system is set do I deploy the right specialists to execute exactly what’s needed — nothing bloated, nothing disconnected, nothing noisy.

Marketing works when thinking, creative, and execution operate as one system — not three disconnected jobs.

What Gets Deployed After Direction Is Set

Once the system is clear, deployment becomes precise — not reactive.

Depending on what the strategy calls for, that may include:

  • Digital Experience Systems
    Websites and platforms built to guide decisions — not just look polished.

  • Narrative & Visual Storytelling
    Video and visual media designed to create meaning, not noise.

  • Audience Signal Amplification
    Social content and distribution that reinforce relevance instead of chasing trends.

  • Live Brand Experiences
    Events and activations engineered to create memory, emotion, and trust.

  • Visual Asset Architecture
    Photography and visual systems designed for long-term use across channels.

  • Message & Narrative Design
    Copy that aligns belief, emotion, and action — without gimmicks.

  • Attention-Based Brand Activation
    Events, sponsored entertainment and creative activations that earn attention instead of buying it.

We met all of our KPI's within 30 days exceeding our goals for lunch and happy hour sales. We were struggling post-pandemic and within 6 weeks we had to hire more staff to keep up!
