Your Business is Almost Twenty.
Ready to let it grow up?
The scrappy, do-it-all-yourself phase is over. Your business has customers, revenue, and traction. It’s not a kid anymore. It’s ready to grow up. The question is: are you ready to let it?
After more than twenty years building marketing teams, I help founder-led companies make the transition from teenage chaos to adult systems. From the almost stage to actually scaling.
What grown-up marketing actually means.
Grown-up marketing isn’t about losing your voice or becoming corporate. It’s about building systems that let your business stand on its own.
It means:
Systems & processes that work without you in every decision
Strategy that guides choices—not just founder intuition
Marketing that runs whether you’re there or not
The ability to hire someone & actually know what role you need
Repeatability instead of constant reinvention
This is what I build. Not flashy campaigns.
The infrastructure that lets your business stand on its own.
What I Actually Do
Building foundations, not running campaigns
Over twenty years, I’ve learned that the best marketing isn’t the flashiest—it’s the kind that compounds.
I work with two types of companies:
Scaling Companies ($1M-$20M): You have a product-market fit and real traction, but your marketing is held together with glue and popsicle sticks. I work with these types of companies to build systems, strategies, and teams.
Pre-Seed & Series A Startups: You’re raising capital and need marketing credibility. I can build and support your complete marketing foundation—from brand and positioning, to an early go-to-market playbook.
Ready to let your business grow up?
If you’re done with “almost” and ready to build marketing that actually scales, let’s talk.
I work with a small number of companies each year—founders I genuinely believe in and businesses where I can make a real impact.
Why Almost Twenty
Almost Twenty represents that moment when your business is ready to grow up—when founder-led tactics aren’t enough anymore, and you need real systems.
Like a parent watching their kid turn twenty, founders struggle to let go. You know your business is ready. You’re just afraid of what happens if you step back.
After more than twenty years building marketing for growing companies, I understand both sides: I know what mature marketing looks like, and I know how hard it is to let go.
I help you make that transition—from doing it all yourself to building something that scales without you.
