Sprint
A scoped engagement to solve one growth problem
A focused piece of work with a clear goal: a market-entry plan, a channel test, or a campaign launch. Patric leads it and brings in the right local experts. Because the total depends on how many disciplines are involved, we scope and quote each Sprint individually.
- Kick-off and scoping session
- Patric plus the named experts the work needs
- Defined deliverables agreed up front
- A follow-up review when the work ships
Best for: Teams with one concrete problem to solve in a fixed window.
Workshop
Cross-cultural training for teams working across the corridor
A live, three-hour session for your team, delivered with our expert network. We cover the cultural and commercial ground your people need before they sell, negotiate, or build relationships across Europe and East Asia. The fee depends on cohort size and how much we tailor the material.
- One live 3-hour session, online or on-site
- Material tailored to your team and markets
- Delivered by Patric or a vetted network expert
- Practical takeaways your team can use the next day
Best for: Teams that need to get up to speed before working across cultures.
Fractional CMO
Senior marketing leadership, embedded part-time
Part-time senior marketing leadership embedded with your team, one day a week. We sit between strategy and execution: setting direction, running the growth plan, and keeping the work moving, without the cost of a full-time hire.
- One day a week of senior marketing leadership
- Owns the growth strategy and the plan to deliver it
- Works alongside your in-house team and freelancers
- Monthly cadence, cancellable with notice
Best for: Companies that need growth leadership but are not ready for a full-time CMO.
Advisor
A light retainer for steady, senior input
Ongoing advisory for founders and teams who mostly need a senior sounding board: regular check-ins, reviews of your plan, and quick input when decisions come up. Less hands-on than the Fractional CMO model, at a lower monthly commitment.
- Regular advisory check-ins
- Reviews of your growth and market plans
- On-call input for key decisions
- Monthly cadence, cancellable with notice
Best for: Founders who want senior input without a hands-on engagement.
