Leave knowing who the customer is, and what to measure
I talk with owners and leadership teams about the customer, the funnel, and the few numbers that show whether marketing is working. You walk out with those three things clear. Talks run 30 minutes to an hour. A typical room is 50 to 100 people.


Customers, funnels, and what to measure
The short version is the one on the homepage: who your customer really is, how funnels convert, and what operators should measure.
Photos from those talks show a marketing funnel, a who-is-your-avatar slide, a branding tool kit, a definition of marketing, the next deal, and building wealth. Those are slides from the room, not a menu of separately titled keynotes.

A note on fit: because of my exclusive partnership with Almstead, I don't take on tree care, lawn care or landscaping clients. If that's your industry, Almstead is in great hands.
A half or full day with your leadership team
The Marketing Strategy Workshop is the working session I already offer. A marketing strategy consultant helps your leadership team decide who to target, how to position the business, which channels to fund, how to split the budget and which KPIs to track. We do that in a half or full day, and you get a written plan within five business days.
Before the day
A short survey and a review of your current numbers and materials.
In the room
Positioning, channel mix, a budget split and the handful of metrics leadership will review.
Afterward
A written plan within five business days, then a 30-minute follow-up call.
In person in the New York City area, or remote. Travel can be arranged. The owner or CEO, whoever owns sales and marketing, and finance if budget is on the table. Usually three to six people.
Talk (30 minutes to 1 hour): $3,500. Workshop: $5,000. Travel and lodging are added for events outside New York City.

Career Day, February 2026
I love talking with students about careers. In February 2026 I spent the day at St. Raymond High School for Boys' Career Day in New York City, talking with students and teachers about marketing, starting a business, and how AI is changing the way websites and apps get built.
Running a career day or student event? I'd love to be part of it.
