The Challenge
A private equity-backed healthcare services platform operating hundreds of locations nationwide was preparing for aggressive expansion through acquisitions and organic growth. Leadership identified several challenges:
- Limited brand consistency across locations
- Fragmented marketing efforts
- Rising patient acquisition costs
- Lack of centralized marketing leadership
- Increased competition from larger healthcare organizations

The confidential mandate covered the recruitment of a Chief Marketing Officer, VP of Growth Marketing, Director of Customer Acquisition, and Director of Marketing Analytics.
