Brand as Operating System
Exploring how successful B2B SaaS brands function as operating systems of promises and proofs, driving internal alignment and customer trust.
With 20 years of experience in marketing and brand, I currently lead brand marketing at a B2B SaaS company called Fleetio. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, creative leadership, narrative design, and modern web systems.
I define and steward the core story of the company. This includes positioning, competitive framing, and the internal clarity that keeps teams aligned.
I manage designers, developers, and cross functional partners. I give clear context and guardrails so creative work can flourish without confusion.
I own the marketing website as a strategic asset. This includes UX, structure, content design, CRO thinking, and close partnership with engineers.
I coach people to grow in judgment, autonomy, and craft. I use a personal management system based on clarity, context, and cadence.
I collaborate with product marketing, growth, leadership, and sales to keep messaging, customer understanding, and execution aligned.
Teams work best when the narrative is clear. My job is to set that narrative and maintain it over time.
Good marketing comes from repeatable systems. I create processes that support speed without sacrificing quality.
Data helps guide decisions. It does not replace taste or strategic judgment. I use both.
Creative teams need safety and challenge. I provide both through steady communication, strong briefs, and consistent expectations.
