Generating $90 million in attributed revenue over an 8-10 year period.
My clients, primarily B2B companies, faced challenges in scaling their marketing efforts effectively. Many lacked the internal expertise or bandwidth to optimize their advertising campaigns, develop a cohesive content strategy, or implement SEO best practices. Additionally, some struggled with building high-performing marketing teams and creating frameworks for consistent lead generation and revenue growth.
These companies required a comprehensive marketing solution to accelerate their growth, improve ROI, and establish a scalable marketing infrastructure. Their core needs revolved around managing large marketing budgets, developing advertising strategies, and building a stronger digital presence.
As a marketing consultant, I provided strategic marketing services to address these challenges. My responsibilities included:
Over the course of 8 years, I delivered significant results for my clients, contributing to their growth and bottom line:
My work as a consultant helped these B2B companies overcome their marketing challenges and achieve sustainable, scalable growth across multiple channels.
$16 million in revenue and 30-40% margin through paid advertising.
The agency had heavily relied on search engine marketing (SEM) to drive consistent leads for their clients. However, after Apple’s iOS 14 privacy updates, which significantly impacted the effectiveness of Facebook and other paid social platforms, they faced a serious challenge in scaling their lead generation efforts. The diminishing returns from SEM and ineffective use of paid social media resulted in reduced lead flow and stunted revenue growth.
Despite attempting to adapt to the new landscape, the agency struggled to find a comprehensive and data-driven approach that would allow them to utilize Facebook and paid social in a cost-efficient and scalable way.
I was brought in to revamp their paid social strategy and manage their internal media buying team, overseeing a monthly budget of $1 million. My approach was to conduct an in-depth analysis of the agency’s previous campaigns, market positioning, and creative performance. Key aspects of the solution included:
Within 12 months, the newly implemented strategy yielded significant financial and operational improvements for the agency:
The success of this project positioned the agency for long-term sustainable growth, allowing them to diversify their lead generation channels and scale effectively in the post-iOS 14 era.
Improved product adoption by 25% while increasing sales close rate by 20% and reducing sales cycle by 15%.
The B2B software company offered a proprietary lead generation and CRM solution, enabling clients to connect directly to our platform to receive and manage sales leads. While the platform had initially seen success, we began noticing concerning trends: customer retention rates were dropping, contract amounts were decreasing, and clients were struggling to fully utilize the product’s capabilities to generate high-quality leads and close deals effectively.
Key issues included:
I took on the task of addressing these pain points by implementing a multi-faceted approach that improved both the platform’s features and the marketing support provided to clients.
1. Enhancing Product Features and Usability
2. Revamping Marketing and Sales Collateral
3. Collaboration with Business Development
4. Closing the Loop Between Marketing and Product Development
Within months of implementing these changes, the company experienced significant improvements in product adoption, client satisfaction, and overall sales performance:
These efforts not only led to increased client satisfaction and retention but also positioned the company for long-term growth by delivering more value to its customers and optimizing the entire lead-to-close process.
Increasing product adoption by 75% and reducing churn by 30%.
The AI-driven marketing software, designed for agencies and businesses, was struggling to carve out a competitive advantage and achieve strong product-market fit. Despite a range of AI-based features, we faced challenges in gaining traction in a crowded marketplace. Adoption rates were low, and retention was slipping as clients found it difficult to differentiate our platform from competitors. As a result, both customer acquisition and long-term retention were underperforming, threatening the software’s growth potential.
Key challenges included:
To address these issues, I led a comprehensive initiative aimed at sharpening our competitive positioning, improving the product itself, and refining our go-to-market strategy. The solution was built on three main pillars:
1. Conducting Competitive Analysis and Developing Differentiated Features
2. Customer-Centric Development and Feedback Integration
3. Revamping Messaging and Website for Clearer Communication
The combination of enhanced product features, customer-centric development, and improved messaging yielded significant results within months:
This strategic overhaul enabled the software to gain momentum in a highly competitive market, securing its place as a go-to solution for marketing agencies and businesses looking to leverage AI for enhanced results.
A personal finance company reached out to me to grow organically through search engine optimized blog content. I helped them rank for extremely competitive keywords, drive hundreds of new users per day, and greatly increase monthly revenue that stemmed from their blog.
The finance company had a fresh blog with little to no content, search engine presence, and traffic. They also did not understand how to properly research keywords/topics that would attract their buyer persona(s) or create high-quality articles.
I referenced their buyer personas and internal data to research keywords and topics that would attract high-quality users, generate organic traffic, and establish authority.
I regularly produced long-form content that was focused on solving search intent and matching the reader’s stage in the buyer’s journey. Appropriate lead magnets and offers were made based on these two elements.
We worked together for approximately 12 months on the project.
The men’s apparel company Pierro Shoes reached out to me to have their GQ Magazine sales copy written. I helped drive five figures in MRR and track sales from the advertisements.
Pierro Shoes was a brand new men’s apparel company that was offered to be featured in GQ Magazine one month after launching. They required sales copy to be written for all three of their autumn/winter advertisements. The brand did not want to waste this opportunity to drive significant revenue and increase brand awareness.
I studied their customer base, product, and industry to write sales copy that emotionally resonated with customers, displaying a clear value proposition, and positioned the product as luxurious and rare.
Additionally, I proposed they include a discount code and CTA only found in the magazine to track sales and increase conversions.
A SaaS company approached me to help them develop a content marketing strategy and produce monthly SEO blog content to increase organic traffic and inbound leads.
As a new SaaS company, the startup had very little traffic, sales, and growth. They also did not have a clearly defined content marketing, lead generation, or SEO strategy. Their UVP and positioning also needed improvement.
I consulted with the SaaS startup and helped them gradually optimize an effective inbound marketing and content strategy. We A/B split tested various channels, topics, and formats to determine the highest ROI approaches.
SEO blog posts were written by me on a weekly basis and backlinks were built through guest posting. I also created lead magnets that were engineered for different stages of the buyers journey to include in content.
I also aided in positioning the product to make it unique and deeply resonate with solving buyer persona pain points.

A B2C technology company in my portfolio used my content writing and SEO services to greatly increase their blog traffic, domain authority, and sales.
The technology client was not familiar with how to properly conduct content marketing—particularly blogging—to drive organic traffic and align it with their funnel. They had little to no search engine presence and traffic.
I carefully conducted competitive, content, and keyword research to create an effective blog strategy for my client. This was based on their niche, customer profiles, and goals. Findings were compiled into an editorial calendar and the SEO blog content campaign commenced.
A B2C retailer was interested in growing their blog to establish thought-leadership, drive inbound sales, and promote their products in a non-invasive way. So, they contacted me and we began a project to scale their blog.
Consumers are less responsive to ads and campaigns that are designed for everybody. They want to trust brands and learn from them before purchasing. The B2C retailer had little content and organic traffic coming to their website.
I constructed an editorial calendar for the client based on their buyer personas, content guidelines, and other internal documents. These resources were used to find profitable search terms for each stage of the buyer journey. Content was produced for each buyer type.
A local web design agency inquired to have a cold email outreach campaign written that would fill pipeline with hot leads and clients. Having multiple years of experience writing profitable cold email sequences, we began working together on this project.
The web design agency relied completely on referrals and word of mouth completely to drive new business. They wanted to create a system that would continually fill their pipeline so they could scale and not rely on something fickle.
They also did not know how to write cold emails that were compliant, personalized, and capable of moving leads further down the sales pipeline. The agency needed consulting on which tools to use, how to set them up, and integrate the templates I delivered.
The campaign achieved a 47.4% open rate, a 9.6% response rate, and a 3% conversion rate. 548 total emails were sent which resulted in 14 new clients spanning from $5,000–20,000/each.
I wrote an eight-part cold email sequence with each message heavily customized to every lead. This maximized open, reply, and conversion rates.
The goals of the first email were:
While my client was able to generate a significant amount of opportunities from the first email alone, success is always in the follow-up. That’s why I designed the remaining follow-up email templates to:
You have to practice what you preach.
So, I’m going to be transparent about how I grew my copywriting agency through content marketing, SEO, and other strategies.
While I’ve been serving clients for 8+ years, my personal domain was brand new and had absolutely no traffic, authority, etc.
I needed to devise an inbound marketing strategy that would attract high-quality leads, increase brand awareness, and drive organic traffic automatically.
I also needed to design a website, map my services, flesh out a funnel, and gradually build a team.
I researched and created multiple buyer personas that matched my ideal client profile. SEO keywords and content topics were then chosen to bring relevant users to my website.
The content was distributed and re-purposed across several channels, including email, social media, podcasts, videos, and more.
Lead magnets were offered and several automated funnels were set up to automatically offer more resources and pitch services to hot leads.
I only built high-quality backlinks through guest posting on relevant and large websites. Not only did this build my authority, keyword rankings, and search traffic but it also showcased my writing skill and expertise. It resulted in countless large projects and business opportunities for my agency.
