Why advisory, done right ## Fractional advisory engagements that move revenue Most advisory ends at a slide deck. Mine ends at a number on your P&L. Built for founders who already have a product and traffic, but watch both leak before they turn into paid customers. I do not grade your strategy once a quarter. I embed as your **Fractional Head of Growth**, take the funnel apart, and rebuild the parts that are bleeding money. 100x Elementor ARR scaled +337% Riverside net MRR growth $100M+ Ad budget managed The model The model is simple. You get a senior operator on a fraction of a full-time cost, with full ownership of the work, not just the opinion. I have managed $100M+ in budgets, so I know where the waste hides: dead ad sets, broken attribution, a signup flow that loses half its starts, and pricing that prices out your best buyers. Fractional advisory engagements give you that judgment without the headcount, the equity grant, or the twelve-month ramp a new VP needs before they ship anything. ### How I work Three moves, every engagement. **No theater. No twenty-tab dashboard nobody reads.** 01 Two weeks of diagnosis Analytics, ad accounts, CRM, and billing into one view. The whole journey, first click to renewal, on one map. 02 Rank the revenue leaks The three places the most revenue is escaping, ranked by how fast and how cheaply each can be fixed. 03 Weekly cadence Ship one change, measure it, keep what works, cut what does not. No theater, no dashboard nobody reads. Real outcomes, not theory. I took **Elementor to 100x ARR** by treating growth as a system: acquisition, activation, and retention wired together so each feeds the next. I drove **Riverside +337% MRR** by fixing the path from signup to paid, not by buying more traffic. The same method runs underneath every engagement, scaled to your stage. “Most advisory work ends at a slide deck. Mine ends at a number on your P&L.” ### Who this is for, and who it is not I work on the **revenue engine**: paid acquisition, CRO, lifecycle and retention, pricing, and the analytics that tell you the truth about all four. Sell a real product to real buyers and want someone accountable for the line that goes up? This is the fastest way to put a senior operator on it without hiring one full time. Good fit - + A real product sold to real buyers - + Existing traffic that leaks before it converts - + A founder who wants someone accountable for revenue Not a fit - − A brand refresh or a new logo - − A manifesto or a positioning document to file away - − A quarterly check-in with no execution attached Engagements run **month to month**, scoped to outcomes we agree on before I start. You see what I am working on, why it ranks where it does, and what it moved. **From traffic to revenue** is the whole principle. Traffic is easy to buy and easy to brag about. Revenue is the only number that pays your team and funds your next bet, and it is what every engagement I run is measured against. For grounding, the [Harvard Business Review primer on marketing ROI](https://hbr.org/2017/07/a-refresher-on-marketing-roi) is a solid baseline for return on every growth dollar. The next step is a short call. We look at your funnel, I name the two or three things I would fix first, and you decide if it is a fit. **No deck. No pitch.** Just where the money is leaking and how fast we can stop it. Why work with me Same operator who scaled Elementor from $200K to $20M ARR (100x in 3 years), grew Riverside.fm MRR +337%, and ran growth at cnvrg.io through its acquisition by Intel. You get the person who did the work, not a junior account manager.

Before you book ## Frequently asked questions **What exactly are fractional advisory engagements and how do they differ from consulting?** A consultant hands you a deck and leaves. In my fractional advisory engagements I embed as your Fractional Head of Growth and own the work end to end: I run the ad accounts, fix the signup flow, rebuild attribution, and report on the revenue it moved. You get a senior operator on a fraction of full-time cost, accountable for results, not just recommendations you have to execute yourself. **How do you structure a fractional advisory engagement?** Two weeks of diagnosis first. I pull your analytics, ad accounts, CRM, and billing into one view, map the full journey from first click to renewal, and rank the three biggest revenue leaks by speed and cost to fix. After that we run a weekly cadence: ship one change, measure it, keep what works, cut what does not. Month to month, scoped to outcomes we agree on before I start. **What kind of results have you driven in past growth roles?** The approved numbers I stand behind: I took Elementor to 100x ARR by wiring acquisition, activation, and retention into one system, and I drove Riverside +337% MRR by fixing the path from signup to paid rather than buying more traffic. I have also managed $100M+ in budgets, which is mostly an education in where spend gets wasted and how to stop it. **Who is a good fit for these engagements, and who is not?** Good fit: founders and operators with a real product and existing traffic who watch both leak before they convert. I work on paid acquisition, conversion-rate optimization, lifecycle, retention, pricing, and the analytics underneath. Bad fit: anyone wanting a brand refresh, a logo, or a manifesto. I am accountable for the revenue line, not the brand book. **How much time do fractional advisory engagements require from my team?** Far less than hiring a VP. I do the diagnosis and the building; your team grants me access to the tools and shows up for one weekly working session to review what shipped and what moved. I own execution, so you are not assigning your people my tasks. The point of a fractional model is that the senior operator carries the load, not your existing team. **How do you measure success in an engagement?** Against revenue, not vanity metrics. Traffic is easy to buy and easy to brag about; revenue is the only number that funds your team. Every change ties back to a stage of the funnel with a clear before-and-after, and I report exactly what each one moved. You see what I am working on, why it ranks where it does, and the impact. From traffic to revenue is the whole standard. Next step ## Let’s turn this into measurable revenue Book a 15-min call.
