Growth that does not begin with a clear commercial framework is just activity. I build the infrastructure that makes it real.
What this means in practice
Fragmented activity becomes coordinated commercial architecture aligned to your revenue objectives.
Market entry uncertainty becomes a structured go-to-market strategy built for your sector and audience.
Brand ambiguity becomes a defined, defensible market position that earns attention and builds trust.
Marketing spend becomes attributable, optimised investment connected to measurable commercial outcomes.
Advisory Services
Five disciplines. One commercial objective: building the marketing infrastructure that produces growth you can measure and sustain.
Clients receive a functioning system, not a deck, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time CMO.
Strategic Marketing Leadership
Most organisations have marketing activity but lack marketing architecture. I serve as a Fractional CMO or senior strategic marketing partner, building the commercial framework, team structure, channel strategy and performance infrastructure that turns activity into measurable and sustainable growth.
Timeframe: Minimum 3-month engagement, typically 6 to 12 months.
Investment: $3,500 – $6,000 per month. Minimum 3-month engagement, typically 6 to 12 months.
Go-to-Market Strategy
A product or brand without a structured route to market will underperform regardless of its quality. I design and execute full go-to-market strategies across consumer, FMCG, technology and real estate sectors, covering trade marketing, route-to-market design, retail activation and consumer adoption from launch through growth.
Timeframe: 6 to 16 weeks depending on scope.
Investment: $4,000 – $9,000 depending on scope and market complexity.
Experiential & Event Marketing
Consumer attention is earned, not bought. I design and produce large-scale consumer activations, mall activations, product launches and live brand experiences that create genuine commercial impact, from grassroots community engagement through to high-calibre stakeholder events of 1,000+ attendees.
Timeframe: 4 to 12 weeks from brief to execution.
Investment: $3,000 – $8,000 depending on scope and scale.
PR & Communications Strategy
Earned media and executive positioning are long-game investments with compounding returns. I develop and execute PR and communications strategies covering earned media, public messaging, stakeholder communications and executive positioning for corporate and government clients operating in complex or high-visibility environments.
Timeframe: Minimum 3-month retainer, typically ongoing.
Investment: $2,500 – $4,500 per month. Minimum 3-month retainer, typically ongoing.
Brand Transformation
Brands reach critical inflection points: new market entries, relaunches after decline, competitive repositioning. I design and lead brand transformation engagements that rebuild commercial credibility, redefine market position and create foundations for long-term brand equity and market relevance across categories and cultures.
Timeframe: 8 to 20 weeks depending on scope.
Investment: $5,000 – $12,000 depending on scope.
Who Engages Terry
I work with a specific type of organisation at a specific type of moment.
Growth-Stage Companies Scaling Across Africa
You have proven product-market fit and need commercial architecture and senior marketing leadership to scale efficiently across multiple markets, without a full-time CMO commitment.
Established Brands at an Inflection Point
Your brand has lost momentum, you are entering a new market or your positioning no longer reflects your commercial ambition. You need a strategic lead to rebuild from the inside out.
Multinationals Entering East African Markets
You are a global or regional brand expanding into East or pan-African markets and need a senior local partner who understands both international brand standards and local market realities.
Organisations Building a Marketing Function
There is no structured marketing department and you need someone to architect the team, define the channels, establish performance infrastructure and execute the critical first 90 days.
