In this episode of the FiredUp! podcast, Thomas Been shares the vital pillars of your marketing team and actionable steps you can take right now to structure your marketing team early on and allow it to grow alongside your business growth.
Thomas is a seasoned marketing executive with global experience building and managing marketing teams that establish brand awareness/market leadership and contribute to revenue. He has held technical and sales roles, though marketing has taught him the importance of alignment across functions. For Thomas, marketing affords him the opportunity to learn and leverage two primary interests: the transformative power of technology, as well as customer experience and interactions. He is a US resident with a French passport and a global perspective that drives his work to impact organizations, build effective marketing teams, and continue learning.

- Structuring a marketing team to “do more with less” in a late stage private company.
- The evolution of marketing roles as the economic landscape develops over time.
- Where marketing starts and ends (or perhaps, never ends).
