The challenge

The gaps quietly costing you pipeline.

Marketing spend is growing but pipeline and revenue aren't keeping pace

Unclear which channels are actually driving qualified pipeline

Tech stack sprawl with tools that don't integrate or deliver value

New marketing leader needs an unbiased assessment of the current state

Board asking hard questions about marketing ROI you can't answer

Feeling like the team is busy but not moving the needle on growth

Why now

SaaS Marketing Complexity Has Exploded

With more channels, tools, and data than ever, it's easy to lose sight of what's working and where the biggest opportunities lie.

  • Average SaaS company uses 80+ marketing tools
  • Multi-touch attribution is critical but rarely implemented correctly
  • Channel effectiveness shifts rapidly with market changes
  • Team structures often don't match growth stage requirements
  • Competitor strategies change faster than annual planning cycles
  • Data silos prevent holistic performance understanding

FAQ

Questions teams ask.

How long does a marketing audit take?

A comprehensive audit typically takes 3-4 weeks from kickoff to final presentation. This includes data collection, stakeholder interviews, analysis, and roadmap development.

What access do you need for the audit?

Read-only access to your analytics platforms, ad accounts, CRM, marketing automation, and any other tools in your stack. We provide a secure access request checklist at kickoff.

Is the audit a one-time project or ongoing?

The core audit is a one-time project. However, many clients engage us for quarterly reviews to track progress against the roadmap and identify new opportunities.

Can you help us act on the recommendations?

Yes. After the audit, we lead implementation end-to-end across SEO, PPC, content, and other areas, or provide ongoing consulting support that directs your in-house team or existing agencies.

How is this different from free SEO audits?

Our marketing audit covers your entire marketing function-not just SEO. It includes paid channels, content, email, tech stack, team structure, attribution, and competitive positioning.
