Hi, I’m the senior marketer you’re missing.

Zoli CrisanFractional demand gen and GTM lead

Taking on 1 new client

Founder-led marketing got you here. Now it needs a system.

I'm the fractional demand gen and GTM lead for B2B companies with complex sales cycles that sell internationally. We start with a GTM Foundation Sprint to set the direction, then I run the demand generation that follows.

Direction means who you sell to and what you say. Then the channels, content and tracking that turn it into pipeline you can measure.

A few direct questions about your business and how you build revenue, then a straight answer on whether I can help.

Strategy, system, execution. In that order.

Most pipeline problems are diagnosed one layer too low. I start at the top and work down.

01 · Strategy

GTM

Sounds familiar?Everyone is a target, and the message changes with every channel.

Who you sell to, and why they buy now.

  • ICP scored, so effort goes to the accounts most likely to buy
  • Positioning that wins on depth
  • One message from the first search to the first sales email
  • Packaging that matches how buyers judge value

02 · System

Growth engine

Sounds familiar?The dashboard shows activity, and nobody can say which stage loses the deals.

Where the pipeline leaks.

  • Conversion measured stage by stage, not in totals
  • Budget that follows pipeline return
  • Speed from lead to meeting
  • Pipeline numbers sales and finance both trust

03 · Execution

Demand

Sounds familiar?Spend goes up, pipeline doesn't.

Creating it and capturing it.

  • ABM, content and events built around the buyers you want to win
  • Paid search, SEO and customer review platforms run to own the results page your buyers see
  • Small tests first, budget behind what converts
  • Paced against target at the cadence your volume supports

From people who've seen the work

“His knowledge of demand generation and growth tactics is superb and it ensured we consistently overachieved lead and pipeline goals quarter over quarter. What makes him truly valuable is his awareness and knowledge of connecting demand generation with sales process, ensuring lead to pipeline conversion delivers positive ROI.”

Tim Deluca-SmithCMO at CoSoSys · managed Zoli directly

“He has a keen eye for identifying performance gaps, quickly diagnosing root causes, and taking decisive action. For example, when we saw a decline in leads from third-party vendors and SEO, he recognized that the change in Google SERPs was the reason, and he developed a strategy to reverse the impact.”
