When Business Is Busy, But Growth Has Plateaued
I'm Alison, a Fractional Marketing Director to established Canberra organisations that need senior marketing leadership, clear direction, and measurable growth, not more disconnected tactics.
If your business has outgrown ad-hoc marketing but you don't want to hire a full-time director, this is the middle ground that actually works.
Many Canberra businesses reach a point where:
-
Marketing activity is happening, but results are inconsistent
-
Agencies or contractors are executing, but no one is leading
-
Sales and marketing aren’t aligned
-
Decisions are reactive, not strategic
-
The CEO is still making marketing calls they shouldn’t have to
This is where a Fractional Marketing Director adds immediate value.
What I Do As Your Factional Marketing Director
I step into your business as a senior marketing leader, not a supplier. You get clarity, direction, and momentum, without the overhead of a full-time executive.
Define and lead your marketing strategy in line with business goals
Translate revenue targets into clear, executable marketing plans
Set priorities, budgets, and KPIs that actually matter
Lead and coordinate internal teams and external agencies
Provide executive-level reporting and accountability
Act as a strategic partner to the CEO and leadership team
