Brian was instrumental in helping us accelerate our Cheribundi DTC business. He required virtually no ramp-up time. He quickly understood the nuances of our brand, our financial drivers, and our customer base, and immediately made high-impact recommendations. Beyond the strategic value he delivered, he integrated seamlessly as a true extension of my team, building strong professional and personal relationships across marketing, finance, and our external agency partners. His ability to combine sharp business insight with collaborative, team-first execution makes him an exceptional consultant and someone I would gladly work with again.

It's been great working with Brian and his team over the last 9+ months. Our team appreciates their proactivity and how they show up for us each day. We enjoy the thoughtfulness of their approach to holistic performance operations and have set consecutive records with them at the helm of our day to day operations. Highly recommend working with Brian and his team!

Working with Brian has been a breath of fresh air in the world of performance marketing. He is truly a master of his craft—deep in the details, razor-sharp in his insights, and a remarkably clear communicator. What sets Brian apart is not just his expertise, but his responsiveness and integrity. Even when he doesn't have the answer right away, his communication is consistent, thoughtful, and fast.
Since bringing Brian on, we've seen levels of performance and consistency we had never achieved before—and the surprising part is, it feels like we’re putting in less energy. That’s because we're now only focused on what actually moves the needle. Brian has helped us cut through the noise and operate with clarity and intention.
Beyond his technical skills, he brings real-world, relevant experience from other brands that makes his recommendations even more actionable. He’s not just a growth marketer—he’s a strategic partner, and we’re incredibly grateful to have him on our team.
