Overview
You've built something people love. Now you're facing the gap between what got you here and what gets you to $30M+. I'm a builder at heart, probably from my days as a Lego kid who'd follow the instructions to completion, tear it all down, and build something entirely new. That's what I do with brands: jump into the messy data, find the highest-leverage growth opportunities, and build strategies that actually get executed. Most emerging brands get this backwards, chasing distribution before proving unit economics. I help you start where the money already is, then scale once performance is loc

You've built something people love. Now you're facing the gap between what got you here and what gets you to $30M+. I'm a builder at heart, probably from my days as a Lego kid who'd follow the instructions to completion, tear it all down, and build something entirely new. That's what I do with brands: jump into the messy data, find the highest-leverage growth opportunities, and build strategies that actually get executed. Most emerging brands get this backwards, chasing distribution before proving unit economics. I help you start where the money already is, then scale once performance is locked in. I built my career leading marketing for category-defining CPG brands at Tyson Foods, Perfetti Van Melle, and Sunny Delight before scaling Scott & Jon's from $7M to $30M as VP Marketing. I founded Ozimek Growth Marketing LLC to bring big CPG thinking to emerging brands moving at founder speed. My expertise spans brand strategy, integrated brand building, performance marketing, and product innovation. Focus areas: Emerging food and beverage brands ($5 to $10M revenue --> pushing for $25-50M), navigating the gap between founder-led scrappiness and scalable growth systems.
