Do you need a fractional CMO, a full-time hire, or an agency? Jennifer Neenan shares a practical decision framework for B2B founders.

Build B2B marketing roadmaps around buying motions—not org charts—so they stay useful when sales teams are reorganised.

Most B2B marketing plans live in a deck sales never reads. The good ones live in the language of the next quarter's pipeline.

Every objection your sales team hears is a content brief. Most B2B companies are sitting on a year of editorial direction and treating it as friction.

Most B2B demand programs pick channels first and figure out the message later. The order is backwards — and it's why most campaigns underperform.

Founders are usually the strongest marketers in their business, and the worst content system. The fix is structural, not creative.

Most B2B homepages describe the product before they describe the buyer's situation. That single choice makes every downstream sales conversation slower.

When a B2B company can't explain who it's for or why it matters, publishing more content compounds the problem. Positioning has to come first.
