Fractional CMO

I work with founders who are serious about growth but not yet ready to build a full marketing org: senior strategy, hands-on execution, GTM, brand, ops, and comms. The full stack without the full headcount. Currently working with two Zurich-based early-stage AI companies on narrative architecture, brand positioning, and GTM foundations.
