10 Seven Marketing

We are a small passionate group who are dedicated to building your brand and customer base.  We only accept a limited number of clients in order to remain small and agile. 

In the days where the lumbering and bloated corporate giants are crashing down all around us, we feel the most effective strategy for any business is one that can be adapted and edited in a minute's notice. 
 
In the new economy where information, good or bad travels at the speed of light, keeping your business plan light and nimble is far better than the large and sprawling models of the corporate juggernauts.

Building Brand and Customer Base, Sales and Communications

I'm a CEO, father, venture capitalist, plant medicine advocate, and team builder. I invest in businesses that prioritize leadership and the human element. Sustained profit (in today’s world) is a result of getting the human element right. At my latest project www.InnerCircle.biz, we've created a space where plant medicine leaders and pioneers can learn, network, fund, and develop alongside vetted industry experts and committed service providers.

As an advisor to unicorns like Facebook & Airbnb, I know what it takes to keep a team together, delivering profitably through a phase of rapid growth. I call it “Scaling Culture Profitably.” Thanks for checking out my corner of the internet, follow me for cutting-edge leadership, venture capital, and team-building content.  In the new economy, effective leaders are both plant medicine-aware and trauma-informed. We call these Elevated Executives. Do you have what it takes to be an Elevated Executive? Stay tuned for our $10,000 Elevated Business Accelerator Grant giveaway.
