      Marketing Manager

      I joined Yardstik early, back in scrappy startup mode. Since then, we’ve doubled headcount and grown revenue 10x. For a stretch, I was the solo marketer—driving demand gen, running campaigns that fueled pipeline and bookings, and managing both paid and organic channels. I’ve also built out brand-focused marketing, making messaging our foundation and telling a story that attracts customers and wins us awards. I’ve launched podcasts, newsletters, blogs, and more—content that sets us apart from competitors 10x our size, driving meaningful organic growth. Focused on building a real audience, not just filling space. Show less
