Ongoing Partnerships
Continual support for where you need it most.
Not every business is ready for a full-scope retainer, and not every business needs one. The Focused Partner delivers one capped production piece a month alongside a short monthly check-in to keep it aligned with what's actually happening in your business.
The Focused Partner
This is where strategy and execution meet, and stay met, month after month: campaign planning, content direction, design assets, Squarespace updates and landing pages, messaging refinement. It's the right fit for most clients, because most businesses don't need one thing. They need a trusted partner who knows the whole picture and keeps moving it forward.
The Creative Partner
For businesses where marketing is a genuine priority and the internal team is small or absent, this goes deeper than the Creative Partner: brand direction, full content strategy, campaign systems, website strategy, design execution, and performance reporting. You get senior-level marketing leadership with real capacity behind it.
The Strategic Growth Partner
Fractional Marketing Director
For those special occasions where you have people, but need someone above them. The Fractional Marketing Director places a senior marketing executive inside your leadership structure for 15-20 hours a week. In return, you get monthly reporting, quarterly strategic reviews, vendor and team oversight, marketing P&L ownership, and a seat at your leadership meetings. This is for businesses with internal staff who need a strategic voice at the executive level, accountable for results, not just execution.
Common Questions About Ongoing Partnerships
Your term doesn't auto-renew. As it nears expiration, we'll talk through how things have gone and decide together whether to continue, adjust scope, or wrap up. You're never locked into something on autopilot, and neither am I.
What happens when my commitment term ends?
1
It comes down to how much you need done and how much direction you already have internally. The Focused Partner fits one deliverable a month on a smaller budget. The Creative Partner is the right fit for most businesses — strategy and execution together, month after month. The Strategic Growth Partner is for when you’ve outgrown coordination and need senior-level direction with capacity behind it. The Fractional Marketing Director is for businesses that already have a team and need someone above them, accountable for results at the executive level.
How do I know which partnership level is right for me?
2
Yes! These are built to grow with you, not box you in. As your business changes, we can talk through whether a different level makes more sense at your next term review.
Can I move between tiers if my needs change?
3
Yes, though the length varies by tier. Most begin with at least a 3-month commitment, and the Fractional Marketing Director begins with at least 6 months, reflecting the depth of that role. That minimum gives the partnership enough runway to actually show results before we evaluate together.
Do all of these require a minimum commitment?
4
If you have one clearly defined thing that needs to get built, The Project Sprint might be the better starting point. No ongoing commitment is required for that service. These partnerships are for when you know you’ll need continued support, not just a single deliverable.
What if I’m not sure I’m ready for an ongoing partnership at all?
