Beyond the Retainer

Focused Engagements.
Measurable Outcomes.

Not every brand needs a full fractional CMO engagement. Sometimes you need a sharp outside eye, a fast audit, or a team workshop that changes how your marketing team thinks. That's what these solutions are built for.

Solution 01

Digital Marketing Audits

You're spending money. But are you spending it right? A focused audit cuts through the noise and tells you exactly where your budget is leaking, where your funnel is breaking, and what you should fix first.

Unlike agency audits designed to upsell you, this is an independent, operator-level review from someone who has managed over $10M in ad spend across Google, YouTube, Meta, and email — with no agenda other than the truth.

  • Paid media account review (Google, YouTube, Meta)
  • Email marketing audit — deliverability, segmentation, sequences
  • Funnel & landing page conversion analysis
  • Attribution & tracking health check
  • Written report with prioritised action items
  • Live debrief call with Shmuel

Workshops & Training

Your team is capable. They may just be missing the strategic framework, the operator-level knowledge, or the outside perspective that changes how they approach growth.

Workshops are tailored to your team's specific situation — not a generic slide deck. Topics include paid media strategy, email marketing automation, funnel optimisation, AI tools for marketers, and building a performance marketing culture.

  • Fully customised to your team and goals
  • Practical, hands-on — not just theory
  • Available in-person or remote
  • Pre-workshop discovery call included
  • Follow-up resource guide provided

Honest Qualification

Is this right for your situation?

These solutions are built for specific situations. Here's a straight answer on fit — before you book.

This is a great fit if…

  • You have an active paid media account and need an honest outside assessment
  • Your team is capable but lacks senior strategic direction
  • You're scaling fast and want structure before things break
  • You need a speaker or trainer who's an operator — not just a theorist
  • You want clarity on what's working and what to fix first
  • You make decisions based on data, not gut feel

This probably isn't for you if…

  • You're just starting out with no marketing history or budget
  • You're looking for the lowest-cost option, not the best outcome
  • You're not ready to share account access, data, or honest feedback
  • You need someone to execute everything — not guide the strategy
  • You want a generic workshop deck, not a custom engagement
  • You expect an audit to validate what you're already doing
