Great marketing thinking is sadly not always the norm.  Businesses need to stop chasing the silver bullet and start applying rigour and discipline to their marketing.  The best marketers don’t start the journey until they’ve established the map.  Sound marketing planning is the cornerstone of business growth.

I believe effective marketing is essential to every business that wants to achieve sustainable growth. Based on a good diagnosis, you can gain strategic clarity which leads to building a distinctive, consistent brand from day one with the right balance between long-term investment and promotional activities.

Marketing is commonsensical. Make it no BS and uncomplicated by focusing on core principles. Use data to drive your decision making. That's the best recipe for success.

One of my key strengths and differentiators is that I have run P&Ls and had sales operations, contact centres and targets in my accountabilities. So everything I do is always focussed on the customer needs and how the company can grow based on what it can afford.

Entrepreneurs building a new, or growing a well-established B2B business, don't always leverage or appreciate the powerful and critical role that an operational and integrated digital marketing strategy plays in the growth of their business.

Ellen M. Steinlauf
VCMO, New York (USA)

Over the years, I've observed that many B2B tech startup sales and marketing issues stem from neglecting strategic marketing in their early stages. Proper timing and prioritizing foundational tasks are crucial for success.

Businesses should stand out for the right reasons. I help them to find their voice and connect with the right audiences in meaningful ways.
