Growth for brands the playbook wasn't written for
I've spent over 15 years building and scaling brands, from co-founding Eaze and growing it to $150M in GTV to helping brands like ZBiotics, PEPPER, and LEVEL find what works and turn it into lasting growth.
Acquisition costs keep climbing. Channels keep splitting. AI is changing how people find brands. Founders have to grow with less room for error.
I've spent 15 years building growth systems for consumer brands and venture-backed startups, managing $10M+ in spend along the way.
You're in the right place if…
Seed to growth stage. Consumer, DTC and CPG. Extra useful in categories where the standard channels are restricted or saturated.
Probably not a fit: enterprise B2B sales, or a team that just needs someone to run ads.
“Paid stopped paying back.”
Where I come in.
Start small. Scale when it works.

I'm Jamie. I started on the UberCab account at a San Francisco agency, co-founded Eaze and Country, and today I run DTC growth at LEVEL.
Fifteen years across tech, CPG and regulated categories, with five exits along the way. I work with a small bench of specialists, so you get an operator's judgment with a team behind it.
