My journey so far
From building software to building marketing teams
My path into this was a little backwards. I started on the tech side, building software as a developer for years - back when digital marketing was still a technical game, half engineering and half marketing. So when I moved across into marketing, it never really felt like leaving the engineering behind.
I spent the next ten years as a startup CMO, building and leading marketing teams. The same thing showed up in every one of them: the teams that could genuinely trust their numbers, and scale on them, were the ones where technology and marketing worked as a single system - not two departments throwing data over a wall.
That was the pattern I couldn’t unsee. Almost everyone in this field can do marketing or tech - very few can sit on both sides at once and build the data that connects them. That gap was the spark for intellix.one. I started it to be exactly that person for small marketing teams and agencies, backed by over 2,000 hours building marketing data systems. The principle behind all of it is simple: your data should power your marketing, not slow it down.
And the timing has never been better. What used to take a whole data department - engineers, analysts, months of build time - is now within a small team's reach when someone builds it right. That's the real shift behind intellix.one: small marketing teams acting like big ones. We run the same way ourselves - a deliberately tiny team, set up to deliver like a large one.
