“We don't have to do a million things, we just have to do the right things. We often feel like ‘I don't have a big budget to spend on ads and that's why I'm not successful.’ We're chasing all of these different marketing tactics… In truth, we don't actually need to be doing that much.” Lindsey Breitwieser spent nearly a decade of her career in marketing working in-house for international agencies, but after starting a family, she realized it was time to find a solution to feeling chained to her desk. Now, Lindsey is the founder of The CMO Lab, a boutique marketing consulting company that delivers top tier marketing strategy and leadership to burgeoning and established B2M and service based businesses.
