Omschrijving

I'm Tom, a senior marketing strategist with 10+ years across tech, music and media, now working independently through my strategic marketing consultancy: Wax Digital.

My background covers the full scope of digital marketing. I have deep execution knowledge across individual digital channels, but where I add the most value is at the strategic level: building coherent marketing strategy and auditing how channels work together to drive a converting funnel.

What I can help with:

- Marketing strategy and audits

- GTM planning and launch campaigns

- Positioning and messaging

- Funnel design and conversion architecture

- Audience growth and channel strategy

- Content and social strategy

- Lifecycle and email marketing

- Influencer and partnership strategy

- B2B demand generation and lead gen

- Music marketing - everything above, plus artist brand development, release strategy, DSP platform strategy, and label services

I'm AI proficient and have embedded it into my day-to-day workflows. It significantly increases what I can deliver as a solo operator.

If you need a senior marketing partner who can hit the ground running, let's talk.

Developed multi-channel lifecycle campaigns to drive user acquisition, engagement and retention.
Built automated subscriber retention and win-back programs in Salesforce Marketing Cloud, achieving 22% lift in retention and 27% average open rates.

The AFR was losing digital subscribers through passive churn - people disengaging before they cancelled. I diagnosed the problem through audience segmentation, identifying subscribers who hadn't accessed their subscription in 90+ days. From there I built a 6-week nurture sequence to re-engage them with high-value content and reinforce subscription value, and a separate 5-step win-back sequence in Salesforce Marketing Cloud for those who had already lapsed, using a targeted discount offer to lower the barrier to return. Result: 22% retention improvement, 27% average open rate.
