Brand Marketing Executive & Advisor | Fractional CBO | Tech | Building Brand Equity to Drive Business Growth

B2B buyers need to feel like selecting you is the safest, smartest move they can make, for their business and their career. 

I help B2B companies get buyers to feel that way.

I’ve led award-winning marketing that increased awareness, consideration, and company valuation. At IBM, I positioned the company as an industry recognized top 5 leader in enterprise AI & hybrid cloud. At eBay, I increased consideration among a new cohort of buyers and drove 500,000+ new customer engagements. 

Now, I take big-brand strategies and make them work for $10M+ ARR B2B companies with tight resources. 

"Equal parts strategic and operational-smarts, big picture and granular detail. Doesn't get much better than that!" - Strategy Executive, Management Consulting 

I work directly with CEOs, Founders, and CMOs who are tired of:
  ✘ Being forced to compete on price despite superior solutions
  ✘ Losing enterprise contracts to better known competitors
  ✘ Watching sales cycles drag on and end in 'no decision'
  ✘ Seeing revenue growth stall despite better technology and expertise

After working together, my clients have achieved:
  ✔ High-value enterprise contracts at 30% higher rates
  ✔ Ideal customers seek them out without chasing
  ✔ Sales cycles cut in half (with higher close rates)
  ✔ 9X faster growth in strategic segments

"Daniel's counsel guided the executive team…enabling revenue growth in key segments." - CMO, B2B AI & Cloud Technology
