Years of senior marketing leadership experience, now available to the SMBs that need it most, at a fraction of the full-time cost.
Most SMB owners come to me having already tried everything: agencies that delivered reports but not results, junior marketers without the strategic foundation to lead, and gut-call decisions on budgets, channels, and messaging that never quite added up.
I've been on the other side of that table. For over a decade I've worked in senior marketing leadership roles, building and leading marketing functions across industries. I've seen what happens when marketing is owned by a strategist versus when it's owned by whoever has time, and the difference is staggering.
At some point I realized: the businesses that needed this expertise most were the ones who couldn't afford to hire for it full-time. So I built gocmogo: a practice specifically designed to give growth-stage SMB owners access to elite marketing leadership on a fractional basis.
No agency markup. No consultant handoffs. No 40-page decks that gather dust. Just a real CMO embedded in your business, driving strategy and execution until your marketing actually works.
As a woman and minority business owner myself, I understand what it means to build something meaningful with limited resources. I bring that perspective and that work ethic to every client I work with.
I measure my success by your revenue, not by how many slides I produce.
Great marketing is clear, specific, and honest. I'll call out jargon every time.
I think like an owner. I'm in the room, not reporting from outside it.
Your marketing plan should fit where you are, not where a Fortune 500 is.
Agencies optimize for their metrics. Ellen optimizes for yours. Revenue, pipeline, and brand equity. Not impressions and click-throughs.
Ellen works inside your business: in your Slack, in your meetings, on your team calls. Not emailing status reports from a distance.
Strategy without execution is just a plan. Ellen does both: setting direction and rolling up her sleeves to see it through.
30 minutes. No pitch. Just a real conversation.
