- Strategic Planning - Own the annual marketing plan, budget cycle, OKRs, and the narrative that ties marketing investment to company revenue goals.

- M&A and Fundraise Readiness - Build the marketing infrastructure and track record that supports higher valuations at fundraise or exit.
Who This Is Right For
