Jim Crimella | Growthvisors — I Find What's Broken In Your Marketing
Accepting 1 new engagement this quarter

Your marketing isn't broken in the way you think it is. I find the real problem.

I embed inside funded, growth-stage companies, diagnose the revenue leaks nobody else can see, and design the strategic fix — across Google, Microsoft, Meta, and your entire funnel. Not a consultant who hands you a deck and disappears. A strategic partner who stays until the numbers move.

You don't have a traffic problem.
You have a visibility problem.

The real constraint on your growth is hidden beneath layers of tactical noise — and nobody in the building can see it.

You're optimizing the wrong thing

Your agency is split-testing button colors while your offer-to-market fit is 40% off. The highest-leverage move isn't a better ad — it's a better diagnosis.

Your team is too close to see it

When you're inside the business every day, you lose the ability to see the pattern. You need someone who walks in with fresh eyes and $100M+ in pattern recognition.

Speed of insight beats speed of execution

Most businesses waste 6–12 months executing the wrong strategy faster. One breakthrough insight — the right diagnosis — can collapse that timeline to weeks.

Your specialists are pointing at each other

The media buyer blames the creative. The creative team blames the funnel. Nobody owns the outcome because nobody sees the full picture.

6–12 mo
The average time businesses waste executing a strategy that was never going to work — before they realize it.
"The most expensive mistake in marketing isn't a failed campaign. It's six months of executing a strategy that was fundamentally wrong — and not knowing it until the cash is gone."

I find what's broken. Then I fix it.

I don't sell deliverables. I sell clarity and direction. When I embed in your business, I bring three integrated capabilities — but the real value is the strategic mind that sees what everyone else is missing.

The Diagnosis

I audit your entire growth engine — ad accounts, funnels, creative, unit economics, audience, offer — and identify the single highest-leverage constraint. Most businesses have 2–3 critical leaks that account for 80% of lost revenue. I find them in the first two weeks.

The Strategy

I design the fix. Not a 40-slide deck — a focused, prioritized execution plan built on what I've seen work across $100M+ in managed spend. Creative direction, funnel architecture, campaign structure, and conversion strategy — engineered as one integrated system.

The Direction

I don't hand you a plan and disappear. I stay embedded — directing your team or vendors, interpreting the data weekly, and course-correcting the strategy in real time until the numbers move. One strategic mind accountable for the outcome.

One strategic mind. One system. Full accountability.

Every case starts with one question:
what is everyone else missing?

15 years finding what's broken
and fixing it.

Most consultants show you a slide deck. I'd rather show you what I actually think about when I look at a business.

Watch: The dirty secret your agency won't tell you

90 sec · No pitch, just truth

I'm Jim Crimella. I've spent the last 15 years diagnosing the growth engines of businesses across 15+ industries — finding what's broken, designing the fix, and directing execution until the numbers move.

I've managed over $100M in ad spend across Google, Microsoft, and Meta. I've built 8 e-commerce brands from zero to seven figures, generating over $37 million in revenue. I led a 40-person marketing team as VP of Marketing for a high-growth company. And most recently, I've been cutting CPAs by 48–82% for funded B2B companies that were burning budget without knowing why.

The pattern across all of it is the same: most businesses are closer to a breakthrough than they think. The problem is rarely effort or budget — it's that the real constraint is invisible from inside the building.

I see it because I've seen it a thousand times before. I work with a small number of clients at a time. I go deep, not wide. If I take you on, you get my full strategic attention — not a junior account manager reading from a playbook.

Don't take my word for it.

"Within two weeks he identified a constraint we'd been staring at for months without realizing it. Our CPA dropped, our close rate went up, and for the first time our marketing felt like a system instead of disconnected pieces."

I only take on clients I know I can help.

I work with a small number of businesses at a time. This isn't for everyone — and I'd rather tell you that upfront than waste your time.

✓ This is built for you if…

  • You're spending $20K+/month on digital marketing and aren't confident it's working
  • You recently raised funding and need pipeline growth — fast
  • You've hired an agency or media buyer that delivered dashboards but not results
  • You're a B2B, SaaS, or lead gen company that knows marketing should be driving more revenue than it is
  • You need a strategic mind who's managed $100M+ in spend — not a junior running a playbook
  • You want one person accountable for the strategy across Google, Microsoft, Meta, and your entire funnel — directing your team to execute it

✕ This is not for you if…

  • You need someone to post on social media or run brand awareness campaigns
  • You're looking for the cheapest option available
  • You want a yes-man who tells you what you want to hear
  • You're not ready to hear that your current strategy might be fundamentally wrong
  • You're pre-revenue and still searching for product-market fit
  • You need a full-time employee, not a strategic growth partner

Questions you're probably asking.

How is this different from hiring an agency? +
Agencies sell you a service package and assign your account to whoever's available. I personally diagnose your business, design the strategy, and direct execution until the numbers move. There's no handoff, no account manager layer, and no guesswork. You get the same strategic mind that's driven results across $100M+ in ad spend — embedded in your business, interpreting your data weekly, and telling your team exactly what to do next.
What does pricing look like? +
Diagnostic engagements start at $7,500 for a two-week deep dive. Embedded growth partnerships are custom-scoped based on complexity and typically range from $10,000–$15,000/month. I don't do hourly billing — you're paying for the outcome, not my time. After our diagnostic call, I'll present a clear scope and investment level with no hidden fees.
How quickly will I see results? +
The diagnostic produces clarity within two weeks. Most embedded clients see measurable movement within the first 30–60 days. I don't believe in 90-day "ramp-up" periods that agencies use to buy time — if the diagnosis is right, the fix starts working fast.
What industries do you work with? +
My strongest results recently have been in B2B, cybersecurity, SaaS, and lead generation — funded companies that are spending real money on Google and Microsoft Search but not getting the returns they should. I've also driven results across e-commerce, coaching, mortgage, insurance, legal, solar, apparel, home services, and more. The strategic principles — campaign architecture, conversion alignment, waste elimination — are universal.
Do I have to commit to a long-term engagement? +
No. Start with the diagnostic call — it's free. If there's a fit, the paid diagnostic gives you a complete assessment in two weeks. If you want me to direct the fix, we scope an embedded partnership. No long-term lock-in — you stay because the results justify it, not because a contract forces you to.
I've been burned by agencies before. Why should I trust this? +
Because I've been on both sides. I've built and scaled my own brands — spending my own money, absorbing my own losses. I've managed over $100M in ad spend. I've led a 40-person marketing team. I know what it feels like when the numbers don't move and real money is on the line. That's why I start with a diagnosis, not a pitch. If I can't see a clear path to a result, I'll tell you — and I won't take your money.
What if I just need a one-time audit? +
That's exactly what the Deep Diagnostic is for. For $7,500, I spend two weeks inside your ad accounts, funnels, analytics, and creative. You get a detailed assessment of exactly where revenue is leaking and a prioritized fix list with specific directives for your team. Some clients take that and execute internally. Many ask me to stay and direct the implementation — but there's zero pressure either way.
