Leave it with me. We’ll manage your entire editorial calendar, balancing priorities across all parts of the funnel.
I’m Adrienne Kmetz, and I put things on the Internet.
At age 24, I walked into the office of the cofounding CEO of Pandora Radio and he hired me on the spot to be marketer #1 for his new venture.
I caught the startup bug and was hooked. I’ve since been on the launch team for dozens of products and companies.
My career evolved into publishing and content, and have since managed content, SEO, paid marketing, social, video, news, compliance, reporting, and PR functions for a whole slew of companies in various stages of maturity.
I’ve led editorial teams as large as 75 full time, at volumes of 150+ articles per week, generating millions of monthly page views and driving substantial recurring revenue.
The only way to hit your projections is to build performant, repeatable, and measurable marketing flywheels. A focused strategy can help you grow an authentically engaged traffic and revenue that compounds over time.
An additional 10 years of experience in the B2B and SaaS space makes me the perfect marketing partner to launch your new product.
When you hire me, you’re not just getting deliverables — you’re gaining a thoughtful partner who will go above and beyond to ensure nothing is overlooked, from the smallest details to the biggest opportunities.
I don’t know everything, but I know a thing or two about how to put the right people and pieces together to make it all work.

“Compelling content” is the most important part of SEO behind making sure your site is indexed. But what does compelling mean? Or “good”, for that matter? Let’s define it so you can find the words to explain it.
