Grow your business with someone who actually runs one.
I'm Heath Drummond, a founder and operator in hard goods, based in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Alongside my own ventures, I help business owners and growing teams strengthen their brand, marketing, design, and consumer sales with senior-level strategy and none of the agency bloat.
Doing it all yourself
You're the founder, the marketer, and everything in between. Before you make your first marketing hire, or burn out trying to be one, let's build the plan.
Comparing me to an agency
You don't need a retainer, an account manager, and three junior staffers. You need senior-level strategy, straight from the person doing the thinking.
Strategy first. Execution only where it's needed.
Every engagement starts with an audit and a roadmap. Some clients take that and run; others want me hands-on after. Either way, the plan comes before the work.
Proof, not just a pitch.
I've spent 10+ years building and running e-commerce and consumer brands, not just advising from the outside. Northwestern-trained in integrated marketing, with a handful of Addy and advertising awards along the way. Right now, alongside client work, I'm also operating an acquisition of my own, so when I tell you what to prioritize, it's coming from someone with real skin in the game.

What does an engagement cost?
How do I know if this is a fit?
