Six ways I make marketing automation earn its keep.

The leverage lives in the operating layer — architecture, data, process, and QA. Here is where I focus to turn a Marketo instance into a system the revenue team trusts.

01

Make the data tell the truth.

I rebuild smart lists on fields the team actually maintains, retire segments that have gone stale, and get reporting back to numbers you can defend in a board meeting.

02

Build a lead handoff sales trusts.

I tune the scoring model and alert volume so an MQL means something again, and reps act on the handoff instead of tuning it out.

03

Give the nurture estate an owner and a map.

I audit years of accumulated smart campaigns, retire the ones pointed at dead fields, and document what is live so the team can maintain it with confidence.

04

Keep the Salesforce sync honest.

I harden field mappings, put eyes on the sync log, and catch routing issues early — before a quiet change from last quarter reaches this quarter's pipeline.

05

Report revenue movement, not activity.

I build reporting that answers the pipeline question leadership actually asks, connecting campaign work to opportunities and revenue rather than opens and clicks.

06

Make personalization real in the outbound.

I build the 6sense-to-Marketo handoff so account intent shows up in the actual outbound, turning buying signal into pipeline instead of a QBR slide.

The operating layer underneath the platforms.

I work the layer most consultants skip — the operating discipline that decides whether the platforms generate revenue or generate cost.

What I get hired to fix.

Each of these is a distinct engagement type. Most retainers combine three or four.

01 / Architecture

Marketo architecture & rebuilds

Instance audits, program structure, token strategy, smart-campaign governance, and rebuild plans that hold up under campaign pressure.

02 / Lifecycle

Lifecycle, scoring & routing

Stage definitions, behavior + fit scoring models, MQL/SAL handoff, alert volume control, routing logic Sales actually uses.

03 / Operations

Campaign operations & QA

Smart-campaign QA discipline, program templates, naming conventions, the audit layer that keeps the instance from drifting.

04 / Data

CRM sync & data integrity

Salesforce / Microsoft Dynamics field mapping, sync log discipline, identity resolution, first-party data models, compliance.

05 / Engagement

Nurture, segmentation & personalization

Multi-touch nurture architecture, account-based personalization that runs against a real CRM, suppression discipline.

06 / Personalization

Personalized landing page systems

Pursuit microsites, named-account landing pages, and the AI workflow that converts company context into deployable assets. Built into the MarTech stack — not a side project.

07 / Visibility

Reporting, attribution & funnel visibility

From open-rate dashboards to revenue-movement reporting. Attribution readiness for the metrics the board actually asks about.

08 / Governance

Documentation & governance

The artifacts that keep the system maintainable after the consultant leaves. Wikis, runbooks, change discipline.

09 / AI

AI-enabled GTM workflows

Agentic AI inside the MarTech stack to eliminate operations debt — not to crank out more outbound. Source-faithful, human-approved.

Numbers from the work, not the brochure.

The metrics below are from a single engagement at Mitel (08/2020 – 05/2025). Detail on Mod Op (Verizon, Victra, Molex), Teladoc Health, and current independent work in the resume.

$51M

Pipeline opportunities activated through intent data and identity-resolution modeling.

$3.4M

Closed-won revenue traced to the unified customer view.

35%

Reduction in time-to-market through workflow and segmentation re-architecture.

The operating model.

Seven verbs. Every engagement passes through some subset of these in this order.

Audit

Map the instance you actually have, not the one in the diagram.

Diagnose

Separate architecture problems from execution problems from people problems.

Rebuild

Re-architect the parts that won't survive scale. Leave the parts that work.

QA

Discipline-level QA on every smart campaign, sync, and routing rule.

Document

Artifacts the team can use after I leave. No tribal knowledge.

Operationalize

Hand off with a runbook. Train the operators. Stay on retainer if needed.

Improve

Quarterly reviews against the operating-layer scorecard. Iterate.

Questions before the first conversation.

A KRS audit reviews the full operating layer — instance architecture, lifecycle and stage definitions, scoring, smart-campaign hygiene, Salesforce or Dynamics sync integrity, naming and governance, and reporting. You get a prioritized list of fixes ranked by impact, not a 90-page document nobody reads.

Both. Most engagements start as a scoped audit or rebuild, then move to a monthly retainer for ongoing operations, QA, and quarterly reviews. You decide what makes sense after the first conversation.

Marketo is the core, alongside Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, 6sense, HubSpot, Salesloft, and Workato. The common thread is the operating layer that connects them — lifecycle, routing, sync, and reporting.

Yes. Most of the work is done with an in-house team, not around it. I document what I build and train your operators so the system holds up after the engagement ends.

Yes. Engagements run remotely from Plano, Texas, working across your existing tools and meeting cadence.

A 30-minute conversation to scope the problem and decide whether KRS is the right operator for it. No deck required. From there, a written scope and timeline.

Need a Marketo system that can survive real pipeline pressure?

Two paths, depending on what you need. Both start with the same first conversation.

// For revenue + marketing leaders

Talk through your system

Audit, rebuild, or retainer. Initial 30-minute conversation to scope the operating-layer problem and decide whether KRS is the right operator for it. No deck required.

// For hiring managers + recruiters
