Before
we talk.
Can you help us choose the person?
Yes. I help define what the role needs, review candidates’ work, join agreed interviews, and compare finalists. We agree where your search or recruiter ends and my marketing assessment begins. Candidate sourcing and placement are not assumed to be included.
Our marketer has already started. Is it too late?
No. We can begin with the start or early work, using the role definition and preparation you already have. If the appointment is struggling, a Reset may be the more useful starting point.
Do you help with actual marketing?
Yes. I do customer research, develop positioning and messaging, write core website and campaign copy, and help shape campaigns. I also brief specialists and review the work and results. We agree which pieces you need before starting; your team coordinates the specialists handling design, implementation and setup.
What if hiring takes longer than expected?
The proposal explains what happens if your hiring dates move: what we can continue, what waits, and when support with the new marketer begins. If marketing needs an owner during the gap, I can help as an interim lead.
How are scope and fees agreed?
Scope, your involvement, the support period and fees are set out in a written proposal before work begins.
