Founder's Marketing Office · The default mortgage tech motion

A CMO's perspective. A 90-day GTM sprint. A founder-led video engine.

For founders running mortgage tech, fintech, or PE-portfolio companies who need a marketing leader, a repositioning sprint, and an audience-building video motion — without making three separate hires.

What's in the office

Three engagements that compound. One operating rhythm.

Executive Marketing Leadership

A senior marketing perspective inside the executive team — without the cost or recruiting cycle of a full-time CMO.

Strategic direction across positioning, demand, and content. Weekly working sessions. Board / leadership presence.

GTM Strategy Sprint

A 90-day repositioning + go-to-market engagement that resets the whole funnel.

ICP refinement, messaging guide, channel + funnel architecture, 90-day roadmap, day-60 go/no-go check.

Founder-Led Video

The audience-building motion that compounds while you build the company.

Produced in partnership with Red Button Media (Mike Faraci). Shot, edited, distributed across LinkedIn + YouTube.

Bundled for sequencing: leadership sets direction, the sprint resets the engine, and the video motion builds the audience. Each piece can stand alone — together they cover the full founder marketing problem.

Built for

Founders who need leadership, strategy, and audience — at the same time.

DEFAULT

Mortgage Tech

Companies selling to lenders, servicers, capital markets. The lane I know best.

Fintech

B2B fintechs at Series A through B+ where the founder still owns the GTM motion.

PE Portfolio Cos

Post-close 100-day windows where the new operator needs marketing reset fast.

Case study

An AI company selling to mortgage lenders, repositioned for a bigger buyer.

The product was strong. Buyers filed it under a narrow category, so deals stayed small. The Founder's Marketing Office motion repositioned it for a larger buyer, rebuilt the sales story around that buyer, and produced founder-led content that opened enterprise conversations.

The internal team kept the content and sales assets and carried them forward.

I don't take every meeting. I filter, nurture, and either book a Discovery or point you to the resource that actually helps.

A Founder's Marketing Office Discovery covers the three engagements, the sequencing, where you are today, and what the next quarter actually needs. Forty-five minutes, Google Meet, no slides. If it's not a fit, I'll point you somewhere better.
