Marketing that results in revenue, not more noise

We help startups and scale-ups drive revenue through their marketing — whether you’re VC-backed, bootstrapped, or elsewhere on the journey.

Startups and scale-ups choose us when...

Marketing expertise is missing or weak
Growth needs to accelerate to the next stage
Growth feels random, not predictable
Gaps between product and sales
Pressure to improve metrics ahead of exit
Lack of internal marketing leadership
Unclear positioning in a competitive market
Need to align across all commercial functions

  • Comprehensive marketing audit
  • ICP definition and buyer journeys
  • Competitive positioning & messaging
  • Channel-market fit identification
Step 2

Helping PE-backed companies win in complex industries

"The Growth Syndicate understood that we needed marketing systems that would speak to our scientific enterprise customers with the precision and rigor they expect. They built frameworks that were systematic, measurable, and scalable—exactly what we needed during our Series B expansion phase. Their approach to thought leadership and community building has transformed how we engage with our target accounts, creating valuable touchpoints that support our sales efforts while maintaining our scientific credibility."

Questions startups and scale-ups often ask us

What makes you different from agencies or consultants?
We provide both strategy and execution in one team. Unlike agencies that just execute or consultants who only strategize, we give you senior fractional leadership plus the specialists to implement everything.
How do you help companies prepare for funding or exit?
We build marketing engines that demonstrate predictable revenue growth and sustainable capabilities. Whether you're raising your next round or preparing for acquisition, we create marketing that investors and buyers actually value.
Do we need a specific marketing budget to work with you?
We adapt to your available marketing budget, but you do need some budget allocated for marketing activities separate from our service fees. We'll work within your constraints and prioritize the tactics that deliver the biggest impact for your investment. We're transparent about what's realistic to achieve with different budget levels.
What if we have a limited marketing budget?

We're used to working with tight budgets and will adapt our approach to maximize impact within your constraints. You'll need some marketing budget available beyond our fees, but we'll help you prioritize spending on the tactics that deliver the best ROI for your stage and goals.
