Trusted by B2B Founders & Growth Leaders
The Problem
You've outgrown founder-led marketing
Leads are inconsistent, messaging is reactive, and nobody owns the strategy, because nobody has the bandwidth to.
1
You're not ready to hire a VP or CMO
Full-time senior marketing talent is expensive, and the wrong hire at this stage is costly to unwind.
2
You don't have time to manage an agency
Agencies need a lot of direction to be useful. You need someone who can set the direction and do the work.

Proof Points
3X higher close rate
An AI company’s website was targeting technical validators instead of decision-makers. Revamped messaging to target leadership with outcome-focused benefits, driving a close rate 3x higher than technical contacts, reducing the sales cycle by ~25%, while maintaining consistent lead volumes.
389% increase in MQLs
A B2B services company had leads coming in inconsistently with no system to score or route them. Led a full HubSpot implementation — lead scoring, customer journey automation, and CRM reporting — that gave the team a repeatable pipeline instead of guesswork, driving a 44% YoY increase in leads and a 389% increase in MQLs.
$5.6M in influenced pipeline
A SaaS company needed to turn existing customers into a growth engine, not just a renewal base. Architected a customer lifecycle marketing strategy — feature adoption campaigns, expansion programs, and partner marketing — that delivered $5.6M in influenced pipeline.
50% target account penetration in 6 months
A B2B company had target accounts identified but no coordinated way to reach them. Designed and executed 10 strategic ABM campaigns using multi-channel engagement and sales enablement, reaching 50% target account penetration within 6 months.
What Clients Say
Marco Bussadori
SVP Sales, H2O.ai
"Absolutely outstanding results, measured in hard pipeline impact across revenue acquisition, retention and expansion motions in high value enterprise B2B sales motions."
Dominik Elmiger
Director Demand Gen, Vision Critical
“In a very brief period, Sarena not only produced a complete overhaul of the content strategy but also project managed a website relaunch. Sarena has the highest expectations when it comes to delivering a relevant user experience on the site. She has shown a strategic approach to aligning and producing content along the customer journey.”
Jordan Rinaldo
VP Marketing
“Phenomenal content strategist. Her ability to dissect any business to create a focused and clear strategy continues to amaze me.”
David Asermely
VP Growth, ValidMind
"Sarena has a gift for sales enablement and go-to-market work; she just gets how to connect marketing to the way a team actually sells and wins. She also owned our website, positioning, and brand, and shaped how ValidMind shows up to the world with real clarity and care. What always impressed me most, though, was how she paired that creativity with serious technical chops - she was using AI agents to streamline our sales and marketing long before most people were even thinking that way."
Nicole Kealey
CMO, Alida
"Two things stood out to me about Sarena: 1) she excels at building strong stakeholder relationships and 2) she is supremely action- and results-oriented."
Marketing leadership, without the overhead.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about our services, process, and how we can help transform your website's performance.
After conducting our initial onboarding call, most clients can expect to have the first draft of the homepage copy and wireframe in no longer than 2 weeks. Depending on the timing of the feedback sessions for copy refinement, design feedback with your designers, development time and A/B test launch, most clients see around a 4-6 week time frame until they are fully launched with their new homepage on their website.
Positioning/Messaging Map plus Homepage Wireframe with content optimized for SEO and conversion. We will also provide feedback to your design team on the final design and layout of the page, and work with your technical team to ensure that the A/B test is implemented correctly and that we have all the required conversion tracking set into place.
We typically don’t provide direct design support, but we will provide feedback to your design team. If you are a small start-up without any design resources, we can take on the design of the homepage at a flat hourly rate of $150 an hour, which we will bill for separately.
We typically don’t provide direct development support but will guide your developers on how to set up the A/B testing and conversion tracking. If you are a small start-up without any development resources, we can take on the development of the homepage at a flat hourly rate of $150 an hour, which we will bill for separately. We can offer development services to clients using WordPress, Shopify, HubSpot, or Webflow as your CMS.
We would love to work on as many pages of the website as you need. If there are radical changes to the homepage we always recommend at least updating your pricing page, as it is usually the second most viewed page on any website after the homepage. While we can’t provide specific pricing details here, we can scope out the project and provide a quote.
We take a data-driven approach. Through A/B testing and proven frameworks, we are confident that we can make significant improvements to the performance of the homepage. That might come in the form of improved visitor conversion rates, increased pipeline value of leads, MQL to SQL conversion rates, sales velocity or other important lead/sales metrics. Significant homepage changes can disrupt alignment with existing marketing materials, leading to an initial performance dip until you update your overall go-to-market strategy.
