Over a year ago, I predicted the future of ops would be conversational. 

I knew the large marketing automation players wouldn't be able to do it. 

But I knew someone else would. 

I was invited to beta-test Knak's AI campaign creation capabilities, and my take is: it's ready. 

William Gibson said, "The future is already here, it's just not evenly distributed." 

And that's what I think about marketing. The future is already here, but not everyone is taking advantage of it.

Make sure to attend Knak's AI campaign creation launch event this week. Details in the comments via Nick Donaldson

Sorry late notice everyone! 

We have an amazing marketing ops town hall where we'll dive into practical AI use cases for marketing ops. 

We'll have Lindsay Rothlisberger, Jomar Ebalida, Mike Rizzo and myself cover some awesome use cases, and we'll also open it up to the group to share what they've learned.

Hello LinkedIn Community,

I build and fine-tune the marketing and business engines that power multi-million dollar growth. For over 13 years, I’ve served as a Fractional CMO and Strategic Advisor to executives in the B2B healthcare and consumer packaged goods (CPG) sectors, transforming their operational chaos into scalable, revenue-aligned systems.

My expertise isn't just in marketing campaigns, it's in constructing the entire operational backbone. I integrate marketing, sales, and finance through disciplined Revenue Operations (RevOps) frameworks, ensuring that every process and technology investment directly contributes to the bottom line.

My approach is built on a repeatable blueprint for scale:

• Developing Go-to-Market (GTM) Infrastructure: I design the strategies and workflows that align your teams and tech stack, turning fragmented efforts into a cohesive growth machine.
• Building Marketing Departments from the Ground Up: From zero to a high-performance function, I establish the operational structures, SOPs, and KPIs that enable teams to double their productivity and execute with precision.
• Leading Complex MarTech Modernization: I specialize in executing critical technology migrations that unify data, automate customer journeys, and provide the analytics for confident, data-informed decision-making.
• Translating Brand Strategy into National Distribution: I have a proven track record of repositioning brands and securing high-visibility retail partnerships (including Walmart) that catapult local companies into national players.

My documented impact includes:

• Scaling an early-stage CPG brand from <$50K to $2.8M+ in revenue.
• Generating a $5M growth potential for a health benefits firm by scaling its subscription capacity 6x.
• Increasing marketing team productivity by 100% and slashing project delays by 50% through process automation.
• Securing national distribution and co-marketing partnerships with industry leaders like Walmart, Farmacias Caridad, and MMM Holdings Health Insurance.

I've codified this methodology into my proprietary framework, The Curao Compass™, and my recently published book, to help other leaders navigate their own growth challenges.

Let's connect to discuss how we can architect a scalable growth engine for your organization.

If you want real growth, stop treating Marketing as your GTM strategy. C-Suite leaders, here’s a reality check:


Many companies aren’t stalling on growth because of poor marketing execution. They’re stalling because the business treats Marketing (and/or others) as the owner of GTM, instead of treating GTM as the operating system of the entire company.

👉Hiring a content marketer is not a GTM strategy.
👉Hiring a social media specialist is not a GTM strategy.
👉Hiring an agency or SDR is not a GTM strategy.

🗣️These hires matter, but not in isolation.

When businesses treat GTM as a series of disconnected marketing functions, they don’t build  consistent revenue. They build silos. 

And silos produce operational drag, inconsistent messaging, slow execution, and missed revenue opportunities.

This is exactly why only 22% of companies report truly integrated commercial leadership across Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success (Demand Gen Report, 2025). 

🗣️ Marketing is carrying a weight that belongs to the entire business.

Meanwhile, companies with strong GTM alignment grow 19% faster and are 15% more profitable (DemandRevenue, 2025). 

🗣️🙌 That is not a marketing win. That is an organizational win created by a unified operating system.

Yet 85% of GTM teams report misalignment across functions even when they believe their strategy is solid (Mural/Sales & Marketing Alignment Survey, 2025). 

That misalignment shows up in delayed launches, confused customers, and unpredictable revenue.

👉The problem is not talent.
👉The problem is not MarTech tools.
👉The problem is not campaigns.

🗣️🗣️🗣️ The problem is architecture.

GTM cannot live inside Marketing.

GTM must be the system the C-Suite aligns around a shared definition of success, unified metrics, coordinated workflows, and cross-functional ownership.

💥 When Marketing sits at the center of the organization with the customer, and every function contributes to one unified GTM system, the organization moves together. 

💀 When GTM is divided into content, social, growth, and campaigns with no shared backbone, the organization moves in pieces.

If the C-Suite wants predictable revenue, they cannot delegate GTM downward. They must own the system, not just the outputs.

GTM role is not a department such as marketing or sales. GTM succeeds as an architecture that determines whether your company grows or stalls.

Alignment at the top is the catalyst that makes everything else work.

Share your thoughts 💭! Let’s start the discussion.
