Who We Help

Built for B2B teams doing more with less.

Some come to AB Insights for early momentum and focus. Others are already growing and need a more mature, measurable marketing engine, without the overhead of a full in-house team.

Built for teams that want to:

  • Drive predictable pipeline from seed through Series B
  • Sharpen go-to-market strategy, positioning, and messaging
  • Automate the repetitive work so the team can focus on what matters
  • Improve reporting, attribution, and decision-making infrastructure
  • Align marketing and sales around clear goals and execution
  • Scale programs and operating rhythms without adding headcount

What We Do

Marketing leadership that drives revenue.

Not just a strategy deck. Real strategy, programs, and accountability that move the needle.

Senior marketing leadership combined with hands-on execution, tailored to your team, your tech stack, and your goals. The result: small marketing teams that perform like much larger ones.

Fractional Marketing Leadership

Senior marketing leadership without the full-time overhead. Strategic direction, prioritization, and executive partnership grounded in 15+ years of revenue-driven GTM experience.

Planning, Budgeting & Performance

Own the marketing plan, budget, and targets. Build realistic forecasts tied to pipeline and revenue, and implement reporting that shows what's driving ROI and where to invest next.

Demand Generation + Pipeline

Full-funnel programs built to drive qualified pipeline. Clear ICP, channel strategy, ABM, lifecycle marketing, and ongoing optimization, tied to revenue, not just activity.

How We Work

From strategy to working system, in weeks, not quarters.

A fast, collaborative process that brings focus, structure, and real execution to your team, without adding unnecessary complexity.

1

Assess + Align

It starts with understanding your goals, current funnel performance, team capacity, and GTM motion. Amanda leads discovery on strategy. Dani audits your marketing tech stack and identifies automation opportunities.

2

Define the Plan

Clear priorities and a roadmap tied to pipeline outcomes and execution reality. You know exactly what gets built, in what order, and why.

3

Build + Execute

Demand gen programs launch and optimize while AI workflows take over the repeatable work, so your team's time goes to higher-value activity. Most clients see meaningful automations running within the first few weeks.

4

Train or Hand Off

At the end of the engagement, you choose: your team runs the systems (Build the Engine), or AB Insights keeps operating them (Fractional VP). Either way, nothing is a black box.

Ways to Work With Us

Strategic Growth Audit

Clarity before scale.

For founders and leadership teams who need a senior perspective.

An end-to-end assessment of your GTM strategy, pipeline performance, positioning, team structure, budget allocation, and marketing systems. Plus where agentic AI can unlock leverage across prospecting, personalization, content, and operations.

You receive a clear, prioritized growth plan tied to revenue outcomes, not just channel tactics.

Build the Engine

From strategy to scalable execution.

GTM strategy design and the infrastructure to support it, including marketing operations, measurement frameworks, sales alignment processes, and high-impact agentic AI systems.

This is not automation for automation's sake. It is intelligent infrastructure that expands your team's capacity without expanding headcount.

Built, trained, and handed off. You own it.

Fractional VP of Marketing

Executive-level growth ownership.

Ongoing partnership for companies that need senior marketing leadership without the full-time hire. This includes:

  • GTM strategy and revenue planning
  • Budget ownership and forecasting
  • Team design and hiring support
  • Sales alignment and pipeline accountability
  • Continuous optimization of marketing systems and AI infrastructure

A strategic operator who has built and scaled revenue engines before, plus modern AI capability embedded into your marketing foundation.
