MARKETING’S BEST FRIEND

WE know our STUFF. But we teach, too.

To get business results, you need to not only know your numbers, but also how to implement and evaluate the marketing technology stack that creates those numbers. Fiddlehead understands marketing analytics data in ways few others can match.  So we can explain clearly and simply why things happen, not just report on what happened. We enjoy sharing our knowledge and expertise to help your team level up too, because the world needs more great marketers.

we’re quick.
But we don’t hurry.

Much of what we do, you could do. But if you’re like most marketers and founders today, you’re short on time and attention span. We have a proven process to ramp up quickly on your business, determine an effective course of action, and then execute at the speed of your company, and probably even faster. With hands-on experience using nearly every major marketing tool, roadblocks are anticipated and costly mistakes are avoided. In other words, you’ll never have to manage us to get work done for you.

WE'VE GOT YOUR BACk. always.

You’ve got a big job and are under great pressure. We’re here to help, whether it’s force ranking our recommendations so you know what to focus on, using your company’s tools to manage your project, 1x1 coaching before big presentations, or just making sure your team knows how effective you are. We’re small, scrappy, and flexible. Industry awards and our egos are far less important than our prime directive: making you and your company successful.  

 

LET US MAKE YOU A DIGITAL MARKETING HERO IN YOUR COMPANY.

We use honest, data-driven analysis and experienced judgment to remove friction from digital marketing decision making—for both strategy and execution.

Fiddlehead was able to convince our skeptical, data-driven leadership that our long tail of films was our strength, by using all the tools in their kit: deep knowledge of our business and our culture, exhaustive analytics, meticulous customer research, and creative execution. We couldn’t have asked for a more effective partner.
— Vanessa Fiske, Head of Marketing, DVD Netflix, San Jose, CA
We had struggled with Google Analytics for months, with reports that were clearly wrong and problems we couldn’t figure out how to solve on our own.

In less than one week, the Fiddlehead team audited our site and gave us clear instructions on how to fix it.
