I started Lean Labs to prove by action that by focusing on great work rather than size, success stories rather than revenue, buyer journey and go to market strategy rather than templates, and partnering with clients rather than going from project to project will create more success for both our clients and our company.

Brand Strategy & Buyer Journey for Lean Labs & its amazing clients

What makes me good at it.
  • I focus on the needs, wants, feelings, and concerns of the targeted buyer. I don’t build sites or campaigns for my clients. I build them for their customers.
  • People buy from people. Even your brand’s website needs to be human, telling its stories in an attractive character that builds a connection with your target audience and authentically helps them throughout the entire brand experience.
  • I’m willing (and eager) to put in the work to achieve the results I seek.
Why I do it for Lean Labs?
  • I believe most agencies are in it for the money,
  • I believe most “account consultants” and “project managers” are woefully inexperienced.
  • I believe the act of pushing work to low level talent damages project outcomes.
  • I believe startups and growing businesses and strategic, creative, technical and marketing gaps that limit their success.
  • I really like the rapid learning environment of leading an agency. I enjoy the diversity, the challenge, and the relationships.
  • It's exciting how every test, every lesson, every outcome (good and bad) has given me a vast experience that no job or single business could ever deliver.
