Which stage is your business in?

Every business is in one of three stages: Foundation, Customer Acquisition, or Scaling. 


Each stage has a different revenue question, and marketing is the smartest money you can spend answering it. 

  ‭→  Foundation proves what customers will pay for before you build it. 

  ‭→ Acquisition proves your route to market for hundreds instead of hundreds of thousands. 

  ‭→ Scaling turns your brand into leverage that lowers acquisition costs and attracts talent. 


Not sure which stage you're in? The assessment takes two minutes. 

I'VE SAT IN YOUR CHAIR

You are carrying all of it: the vision, the risk, the next move, often on the same day. I know the feeling, because I have built companies from nothing and run the marketing that grew them. Most strategists advise from the outside. I have done the job.


Every framework, every audit, every engagement comes from active practice, not theory. Brand strategy built from running real campaigns. Content systems built from running real programs. Roadmaps built from real budgets, real numbers, and real accountability. The work informs the method, and the method serves the work.


The founders who win work with someone who gets both sides: the weight of running the business and the craft of marketing it. If that sounds like the partner you have been looking for, you are in the right place.


Because the point of all of it, the frameworks, the audits, the systems, is the same: marketing that moves the needle on revenue, not marketing that just stays busy. 


AS A FOUNDER

  ‭→ Built three companies from zero

  ‭→ Wear every hat, often all at once

  ‭→ Feel the risk personally, not on a slide


AS A MARKETER 

  ‭→ Over a decade in the trenches

  ‭→ Paid media, brand, and content

  ‭→ Agency side and startup side

  ‭→ Systems thinking that scales

Three ways to work together.

Whether you need a quick answer, a full diagnostic, or a leader in the seat, the engagement matches the scope of work. Every tier delivers the same thing: clarity you can act on, not a framework you have to figure out.

Strategy Hours · By Inquiry

 For a specific question, a second opinion, or a working session on something you're stuck on. Tell me what you need and we'll get time on the calendar. If it grows into a bigger project, your hours credit toward it. 


  • A working session on the problem in front of you
  • A clear answer and a next step you can act on
  • Full hours credit toward a larger engagement


For when one stuck decision is holding up revenue.

The Brand Audit

A focused strategic audit of your brand and marketing across every customer touchpoint. Diagnostic, not prescriptive. Built for solo founders and small businesses that need senior eyes on the work before scaling.

 

  • Full brand and positioning audit
  • Multi-channel marketing review (paid, web, social, email)
  • Prioritized recommendations report
  • 90-minute strategy debrief call
  • 30 days of follow-up email support


Find where money is leaking before you spend another dollar on marketing.

Fractional CMO & Strategic Engagement

A marketing leader in your corner. Two ways to bring me in: a defined build with a clear scope and finish line, or an ongoing seat as your part-time CMO. Either way, you get senior thinking in the work every week.


  • Weekly strategy sessions, and reachable in between
  • A clear read on what's working and what isn't
  • Hands-on in your launches, leading your team and your outside partners
  • Scoped builds finish with a plan your team can run

Turn marketing that works into marketing that compounds. 

How An Engagement Works

1. Discovery & Market Research

1. Discovery & Market Research

1. Discovery & Market Research

I dig into your business, your customers, and your competitors to find out what is working, what is not, and where the leverage is. You walk away knowing which marketing dollars are earning and which are burning. 

2. Strategy

1. Discovery & Market Research

1. Discovery & Market Research

I turn what I learned into a plan built for your stage: the position to own, the customers to pursue, and the channels to prove first. You walk away with a strategy tied to a revenue outcome, not a list of tactics. 

3. Build

4. Support

4. Support

I create the assets and systems the strategy calls for, from messaging and content engines to campaigns and processes your team can run. You walk away with marketing infrastructure that keeps working after the engagement ends.

I stay in your corner as the plan meets the real world, reading results, refining the approach, and pulling the next lever. You walk away with marketing that compounds instead of marketing that starts over every month. 

About Lauren LoBue

I have spent more than a decade leading marketing across paid, brand, and growth, and I have founded three companies of my own and advised many more. I still work hands-on with mid-market brands and the founder-led businesses I have helped build, so the method comes from current practice, not an old résumé.


That combination is the whole point. Real marketing discipline, paired with the hard-won knowledge of building a company from zero. The strategy holds up everywhere, from the big calls down to the daily execution, from brand positioning to the channels that move the numbers.


If you are a founder building a brand, a small business that has outgrown its DIY marketing, or a team that needs serious marketing firepower without a full-time hire, the work translates. I have sat in every one of those seats myself.


  • 10+ years leading marketing across paid, brand, and growth
  • 3x founder, and a strategic advisor to many more
  • Top 40 Under 40 honoree
  • Innovation Award from NMSBA in collaboration with Los Alamos National Laboratory 
  • Worked across SaaS, manufacturing, agriculture, DTC, hospitality, and B2B services
