We're glad you're here. Let's grow together!

Every company deserves a great marketing strategy

Growing a B2B technology company is tough – and it takes a lot more than just building a great product. That’s why having an experienced marketing leader to guide your company’s go-to-market growth strategy is so helpful. It’s so much easier to have someone who’s been there to help you navigate the five Ps of marketing and sales (product, price, place/channels, promotion, and persuasion).

Unfortunately, many companies lack the resources to hire a deeply experienced chief marketing officer who can lead marketing from the perspective of the business as a whole, not just the tasks within the marketing function. We believe that with the right guidance, your internal teams and freelancer vendors can deliver outstanding results. VelocityMarketing.com is dedicated to helping CEOs, Marketing Directors, and Investors get the right strategic guidance when they need it – even before they are ready to hire a full-time CMO.

... and a marketing SWAT team to help get stuff done!

Our global remote team specializes in rapidly implementing go-to-market strategies and building metrics-driven, scalable sales and marketing programs for complex business applications and other B2B technologies. We work with cool startups, growth stage mid-market firms, and established companies or product divisions that a fresh strategy to meet changing market conditions.

We love software and technology. We’re great at translating tech features into business value so even the stingiest suits will buy. We put the latest marketing tools and methodologies to the test. Our Rolodex is stuffed with great vendors and specialists – we always know a guy (or gal or team or tech) who can help.
