THE PROBLEM

Growing a small business is hard.

💪 You have some sales but aren't sure how to scale revenue further.

🍝 Your current marketing consists of throwing “marketing spaghetti” at the wall to see what sticks.

📉 You’re spending money on agencies or freelancers but are underwhelmed with the results.

📔 You’d like to strengthen your go-to-market plans with data, research, and expertise.

🔎 Your team needs the guidance of someone who has "been there, done that."

We'll help you stay on top of the changes with projects tailored to your business's needs, including ongoing customer research and journey mapping, pricing and packaging updates, messaging and positioning refreshes, marketing audits, case study and testimonial creation, and more.

👋 Hi, I'm Garrett, Founder & CEO of Prelude Marketing.

Before Prelude, I spent a decade in marketing, strategy, and executive leadership roles for growing B2B startups. If there is one thing I learned, it is that growing a startup is hard.

Unfortunately, it's not getting any easier with the reduced budgets, smaller teams, and higher expectations startups face today.

No longer can you "do everything to grow." Today, the best startups "do the right things to grow" instead. But how can you know what "the right things" are for your business?

At Prelude Marketing, we work directly with founders and GTM leaders to answer key GTM questions and build the core foundations needed to help you know how to grow.


The result? Clarity and alignment for your GTM team + profitable, sustainable business growth.

If you're struggling to grow your startup or just need some support, let's chat! I'd love to see if we can help you. 

Ready to grow your business?

Profitable, sustainable business growth is within reach. Here's how to get started:

Schedule a free intro call
In a 30-minute call, we’ll discuss your business and challenges and whether I'm best suited to help. (Sometimes I'm not!)
Get a custom proposal
After our call, if it's a fit, I'll send you a proposal about how I recommend working together to grow your business.
Grow your business
After aligning on the work and logistics, I'll get to work. We’ll sync regularly to review and track progress and results.
