Fix what’s blocking your growth. Scale what’s already working.
You Don’t Have a Marketing Problem.
You Have a Growth System Problem.
Most CPG brands don’t stall because of bad marketing.
They stall because:
-
Channels operate in silos (Amazon, DTC, retail)
-
CAC increases while conversion stays flat
-
Product launches don’t scale past the first spike
-
Retention isn’t engineered—it’s hoped for
At a certain point, more tactics don’t fix the problem.
You need a system.
I operate as your growth architect.
I work with CPG and supplement brands as a Fractional CMO, building the systems that drive scalable, predictable growth.
This isn’t execution support.
This is:
-
Diagnosing what’s actually broken
-
Aligning your channels into one growth engine
-
Turning strategy into revenue
The 30-Day Growth Fix Framework.
Every engagement starts with a structured diagnosis of your business across five critical levers:
-
Positioning — Are you clear, differentiated, and compelling?
-
Acquisition — Are you buying growth efficiently?
-
Conversion — Are you turning traffic into revenue?
-
Retention — Are customers coming back—or churning?
-
Channel Strategy — Are your platforms working together?
This is how we identify what’s actually blocking growth—and fix it fast.
Real Growth. Not Theory.
