What I do Work Pricing Questions Glossary Start a project
Your marketing team of one

One marketing hire at a fraction of a salary.

I set the strategy, do the work, and bring in whoever the job needs. You deal with me.

Why one person§01

Somebody has to hold the whole picture.

Marketing splits into specialists fast: someone for the site, someone for the ads, someone for the content. The specialists are fine. What kills the work is that coordinating them becomes your job, and you already have one.

Here the whole thing belongs to one person. I hold the picture, the work lands with my hands or with someone I have picked for it, and I answer for all of it.

What I do§02

What the hire covers.

The goal is the same every time: a business that grows. The route depends on where you're starting.

01

Rebrand

A look and a way of describing yourself that holds up outside the pitch deck.

02

New site

A fast site you can edit yourself, no developer required.

03

Content

Steady content in your voice, without you writing any of it.

04

Automations

The busywork wired to run itself: follow-ups, reporting, a lead pipeline that saves every enquiry.

05

Paid campaigns

Paid search and the channels that bring people in, run from one place.

06

AI enablement

Your company set up to use AI in the daily work.

Some of it is my hands, some is AI-drafted and reviewed with you, and specific work goes to people I have picked. All of it comes back through me.

How it works§03

A plan on paper in the first week.

01

A hard look

We get on a call and I tell you what I'd fix and what I'd leave alone. No pitch.

02

Plan first

Before anything gets built, you get the positioning and the plan in writing. If something's off, we catch it on paper.

03

I run it

Then I own it, week to week. Each piece lands with whoever should do it, you get a short note in plain words when something ships, and the responsibility stays with me.

Work§04

The work so far.

An IT firm, a design studio and a tendering desk. Each owner runs the result themselves.

Findable after twenty years.

An IT firm on a 676-page site nobody could navigate, with no real brand and no analytics. Now it's a fast bilingual site the owner edits himself. It ranks for what he sells, and no enquiry slips past it.

The portfolio finally lives somewhere.

A studio built on word of mouth alone, never online. Its first site doubles as the portfolio, and the owner adds every project himself.

UK public tendering business

The week he got back.

A one-person operation losing its week to tender packs, deadlines and portal admin. Now a scheduled agent picks up each new pack from a folder, scaffolds the bid, scores it against the bid or no-bid rubric, drafts the answers from an approved library and picks them apart against the published criteria before anything is submitted.

It runs on a schedule whether or not anyone opens a laptop. Two things stay off the machine on purpose: the pricing, and the act of submitting.

Where the AI stops§05

Some of it should stay human.

AI drafts, I review, you sign off. That order does not change. The interesting part of the job is deciding what the machine is not allowed to touch.

On the tender pipeline, pricing and the final submission stay human, always. Drafts only assert facts that already exist in the approved library, and where a fact is missing the draft leaves a visible gap instead of a plausible sentence. An invented number in a tender response is a false declaration to a public body.

The person§06
CrewofOne
Cabinet Grotesk800

A marketing crew you only ever meet as one person.

That is what the name means. I'm Daniel Cozma, the person on the other end. The deeper work is mine, and the narrow jobs go to specialists I choose.

Everything above is owned by the people I built it for, down to the accounts.

Pricing§07

Here's what it costs.

Every level gets the same owner. What changes is how much of the strategy I set, and whether I answer for delivery or for the number.

Marketing Manager €500 /mo

You set the direction. An agreed list of work ships every month, by my hands or the right person for it.

Execution Hire a Manager
Head of Marketing €1,000 /mo

We set the direction together. I build the plan and run it, month to month, and the plan getting followed is on me.

CMO €1,500-2,500 /mo

I set the direction and own the number. The price follows the scope. Only a couple of these exist at a time.

The number Hire a CMO
Projects from €1,500

A brand, a site or a launch. One job, finished and handed over.

One-off Scope a project

Every scope is capped in writing.

Fair questions§08

Things people ask.

01Is one person a single point of failure?

An agency has the same risk, spread across people you never meet. Here the work is spread too, across my own picks.

02Can one person really cover all of it?

Not alone, no. The strategy and the core builds are mine, specialist work goes to a specialist, and AI writes first drafts that we review together. The person you brief never changes.

03What happens when you are busy?

Not much changes. The client list stays small so a busy week is mine to absorb.

04What do I own if we stop?

Everything. The brand files, the site, the accounts, the content. It all gets handed over, and none of it lives anywhere you can't take it.

05How fast do you reply?

Within a day, usually less. I read every message myself.

The idea§09

The expensive part of marketing is having to manage it.

Vendors are everywhere. Someone who takes it all off your desk and sees it through is harder to find.
