I can help develop clear marketing strategies that define your market positioning, differentiation, value proposition, and long-term narrative. This includes brand positioning, channel strategy, budget allocation, and seasonal planning — built to actually ship, not sit in a deck.

how it works 

audit & intake. I get into the weeds fast — team structure, current strategy, channel performance, brand positioning, budget, and competitive landscape. No 6-week discovery phase. I'm built to get oriented quickly.

​​

 

strategic alignment. I present my read of the situation and a 90-day priority plan to your leadership team. We align on what we're solving first, what we're parking, and how we'll measure success.

 

in-market execution. We're moving. Campaigns are running, team is aligned, channels are optimised, and you're seeing the strategy show up in the actual work — not just in slides.

 

rhythm & iteration. Weekly team check-ins, monthly executive reporting, quarterly strategy reviews. We keep adjusting based on what's working. And when the engagement ends, I hand off a documented playbook — not a dependency on me.

FAQ's

I operate at the intersection of strategic marketing leadership and hands-on execution, ensuring that your marketing is not just a creative function but a business driver. 

When marketing lacks clear direction, even strong teams struggle to create impact. I join you as a member of your leadership team — in your Slack, in your planning sessions, accountable to your numbers — for the hours you actually need.

 

This is for brands that have real marketing complexity, but aren't ready -or don't need- a full-time CMO.

You get the strategy, the ownership, and the operator — without the full-time salary and the 6-month ramp-up.

'mu:' is a creative way of writing 'mü' - the two first letters of my last name - with an umlaut. It is not as hard to pronounce as one may think: Just say 'meee' out loud, but do it by forming your mouth to an 'O'. Congratulations, first German lesson completed.
