## My Story

I've spent 15+ years in B2B demand generation, on both sides of the table.

In-house, I was Director of Marketing at Koncert, a sales acceleration platform, during a period of 400% revenue growth. At Breezeline, I managed a $3M annual paid media budget, doubled lead-to-opportunity conversion on 18,000+ business leads a year, and helped grow enterprise segment revenue 20% with targeted ABM.

As a HubSpot consulting firm, we've onboarded dozens of small business customers. We saw the same pattern again and again: companies paying for HubSpot and agencies, with nobody owning the pipeline number.

Allyance Marketing provides strategic leadership and operational expertise to fix leaks in your demand-generation pipeline.  As an outsourced, fractional provider, we can support your team for less than the cost of a full-time executive.

## How we work

### Pipeline, not activity

We report on pipeline created, sales-accepted opportunities and cost per opportunity. Not impressions or MQL counts.

### Hands on the work

We rebuild the lead scoring, create the workflows, and create the dashboards and analytical reports for your team.

### Straight answers.

If a channel isn't paying off, I'll tell you to cut it. If you don't need me yet, I'll tell you that too.

### Align to sales

Definitions, scoring and handoff rules get built with your sales team, so they actually get used.

### Supervise staff and contractors

I'll mentor your junior team mentors, and pitch in with hands-on work when needed. I'll also manage and select contractors.

### Use AI to accelerate pipeline

Create engaging content in seconds. Generate blog posts, social media captions, and automate workflows

Who I work with

Small businesses and organizations, usually between $2M and $15M ARR, with a sales team, a product customers buy, and a need for more qualified pipeline. Most run HubSpot, but I can work with Salesforce and other marketing automation tools.

**Probably not a fit:** companies still searching for product-market fit, consumer brands, biotech/pharma, medical device, or teams that need a full rebrand rather than pipeline.
