No strategic foundation.
They inherit a to-do list, not a strategy. Without a clear plan connecting activity to revenue, effort gets scattered across channels that don't compound.
The Fast-Start
Your new marketing hire is 90 days from dangerous.
A 10-week 1:1 accelerator that gives your new marketing hire a Strategy Sprint, a prioritised action plan, and seven weeks of mentorship to turn them into a focused, commercially sharp operator.
01 / The problem
Why most new hires stall.
You made the hire. They are smart, motivated and busy from day one. But without senior guidance and a clear strategic foundation, even strong marketers default to tactics instead of traction.
Pressure to perform.
New hires feel the clock. So they ship what is visible instead of what is valuable, and mistake motion for momentum.
No senior guidance.
Most founder-led businesses have nobody senior in marketing to steer the hire. The founder is too busy, and the hire is too new to know what to push back on.
The 90-day window closes fast.
The first quarter sets the tone. If your hire doesn't build momentum early, confidence erodes, theirs and yours. The Fast-Start exists to make sure that doesn't happen.
02 / What's included
Two phases. Ten weeks.
A Strategy Sprint to build the plan, then seven weeks of mentorship and accountability to make sure it sticks.
Phase 1 · Strategy Sprint (weeks 1-3)
Business and market audit, ICP and audience mapping, channel and messaging strategy, budget and resource allocation, a 90-day implementation roadmap, and a KPI framework with a scorecard that keeps everyone aligned.
Phase 2 · Mentorship (weeks 4-10)
Weekly async check-ins via Slack or email, strategic accountability against the roadmap, on-demand mentorship for the hard calls, tool and process guidance, performance tracking, and escalation support when something needs senior weight.
The result: a commercial operator.
By week ten your hire is running a system, not a to-do list: clear priorities, honest numbers, and the confidence to push back on random acts of marketing.
03 / Who it's for
Built for the first marketing hire.
The Fast-Start pairs best with a hire in their first quarter, in a founder-led business where nobody senior owns marketing yet.
New marketing managers
A capable mid-level hire who has never had to build strategy from scratch, in a business that has never had one either.
First marketing hires
The generalist stepping into a blank-slate role. The Fast-Start hands them a map before they start walking.
Internal promotions
The ops or sales person who inherited marketing. Sharp on the business, new to the discipline. Mentorship closes the gap fast.
04 / Common questions
Frequently asked.
The Sprint builds the plan. The Fast-Start adds seven weeks of mentorship so your hire executes it with senior review, accountability, and someone to call before the expensive mistakes, not after.
Cam directly. Twenty years across web, SEO, social and advertising, applied 1:1 to your hire's actual week-to-week decisions.
It is scoped to the business and agreed upfront as a fixed engagement, like everything at rambert.co. Ask on the discovery call and you will get a straight number.
Most hires graduate to running the playbook solo. Some businesses keep a lighter coaching cadence going. Either way, your hire keeps the system, the scorecard, and the habits.
