HOW I HELP MY CLIENTS

Here's just some of the ways I help my clients every day:

  • I help bring order to marketing chaos, with a KPI-driven, holistic approach to your marketing and advertising.

  • I bring 25+ years of senior marketing leadership and technical expertise to your team instantly, without the massive overhead of hiring a Chief Marketing Officer AND the team required to work under them.

    I'm also backed by my senior, curated team of specialists to help with rapidly augmenting your growth efforts and team as needed.

  • I bring clarity and leadership to the massive confusion of digital advertising, and nuances of every platform out there (Facebook Ads, Google Ads, Instagram Ads, TikTok, Reddit Ads and beyond).

    If you've tried to do it yourself and struggled with no results to show for your ad spend, I can change that for long-term growth for your business, having managed millions of dollars in paid media & advertising spend last year alone!

  • I and my senior team help optimize your website -- the 24x7x365 front door for your business in the modern era -- and your entire MarTech stack to help you dominate your market BEFORE you start spending advertising dollars (not after!)

    Curious to see how you stack up as a starting point?

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Sief Khafagi, Partner, Techvestor
Industry: finTech, Investing/Capital, Real Estate
HQ: San Francisco, California

"Where do I start? Hands down, best in class in EVERY way. I met Curt through a friend and little did I know it would be the start of something special. We instantly clicked when it came to business and marketing. He understands the goals and perhaps more importantly as a business owner, he helps YOU understand the goals. Education is an important thing and he's patient about it. His human first approach is logical, effective and simple. Not rocket science. It just gets it done. From a business perspective, he and his team are driving incredible ROI to our business. Measurable performance is critical and he knows all the numbers have to make sense and they DO.

HE AND HIS TEAM PERFORM! Which is what we (business owners) want at the end of the day.

Curt's creative approach to marketing and problem-solving, and breadth/depth knowledge across the stack is second to none. Oh and you'll like this: He's actually responsive. Reachable. Mind blowing right?

If you have the lucky opportunity to work with Curt, DO IT! Or don't, and leave it to us luckier folks who do. 10 out of 5 in every way!"
