Three ways to bring me in. All three make you money.

01

Creative Strategy & Activation

Concept-to-onsite activation built to deliver measurable audience and revenue lift.

For brands and sponsors approaching a cultural tentpole.

The frame I bring is the same one I used at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Ford Field, the US Open, SXSW, Bonnaroo, and myriad other footprints: translate brand objectives and cultural insight into storylines inclusive of fabrication, software, hardware, and AV execution plans with measurable audience and revenue KPIs. I bring a host of specialized partners with me to every project.

Best fits: brands and venues approaching a generational moment — the LA28 Olympics, America 250, the FIFA World Cup, an annual Super Bowl or US Open — or any tentpole sponsorship category they have never owned before.

Engagement shape: project-based, typically 8-16 weeks.

Examples of deliverables

  • Cultural insight and audience strategy
  • Activation concept development and pitch
  • Sponsorship integration design
  • Vendor and agency partner orchestration
  • KPI frameworks and post-event measurement
  • Revenue-attribution model (sponsorship, retail lift, qualified leads)

02

Brand Advisory & Storytelling

Messaging architecture that closes the gap between what your brand says and what it sells.

For leadership teams whose brand has outgrown its own story.

The marketing funnel has dramatically changed. I work with founders, CMOs, and executive teams on the underlying narrative architecture supporting events: what the brand is actually saying when it stops talking about itself, and how that translates into the sensorial layer of every guest, employee, and partner experience for a 365-degree messaging flywheel that compounds into commercial outcomes.

Within this practice, I offer a productized workshop called the Five-Sense Brand Diagnostic — a structured engagement that translates the unfiltered voice of your customers, employees, or recommenders into a sensorial scene, and then into a visual and tonal system you can actually use. You can see the seven-step methodology applied to my own brand here.

Most useful for: rebrands, founder-led businesses scaling past their initial identity, or executive teams realigning around a new chapter in their events presence.

Engagement shape: workshop or quarterly retainer.

Examples of deliverables

  • Brand truth and narrative audit
  • Neuroaesthetic and sensorial design principles
  • Five-Sense Brand Diagnostic (sensorial-to-visual translation workshop)
  • Executive workshop facilitation
  • Partner and sponsorship story alignment
  • Quarterly advisory hours

03

Fractional Chief Growth Officer

Embedded growth leadership that builds qualified pipeline and the system to run it.

For experience agencies past founder-led sales.

Most fractional growth executives come from sales-process backgrounds. I come from twenty years of being the person inside the room selling the creative work — at Helios Interactive (where I co-led 800% growth to an $11M acquisition by Freeman), at GMR Marketing across the agency's experiential portfolio, at EDGE by Pinnacle Live (where I built the agency from scratch and architected a $25M+ pipeline in a break-even Year 1 with 200% revenue growth and doubled headcount). I know what it takes to translate creative ambition into commercial structure because I have done it from the practitioner side.

Engagement shape: 2 to 4 days per week over a 6 to 12 month horizon, scoped to deliver real pipeline and a system your leadership team can run after I leave.

Examples of deliverables

  • GTM strategy and target market sizing
  • BD playbook, sales process, and CRM architecture
  • Executive sales coaching
  • Pipeline forecasting and quarterly reviews
