What makes me different

Operator, not consultant

I've spent 10,000+ hours inside the room where it happens—leading growth at three DTC brands from $0 to nine figures.

Almost no one has done this at two brands, let alone three. Most advisors have never been in your seat. I've lived there for a decade.

Partner, not manager

I work with you to make your team better, not replace them.

Ways to work with me

1-Month Bootcamp

Get total clarity on your business in 30 days. You'll walk away with a growth plan, a new operating system, and a completely different perspective on what's holding you back.

One intensive day together, a few follow-up calls, then you're off. Most clients move into a retainer afterward.

One-time investment. Millions in value. Start here.

Retainer Partnership

I become embedded with you and your team. Quarterly planning, key meetings, real-time problem solving. This is where the transformation happens.

I work with a small number of founders at a time.

Limited availability.

Advisory Office Hours

For founders who need a sparring partner on demand.

3 hours/month.

About

I'm Dan King. Over the last decade, I led marketing and growth at MeUndies, Ritual, and Sundays for Dogs—scaling each from zero to nine figures.

Now I advise founders, invest in brands I believe in, and run King Marketing.

I'm a big picture thinker who learned the hard way how to do things right. I believe in EOS, OKRs, clean pro formas, and operating systems that make growth repeatable. I was born to be a creative, but somehow cut my teeth with some of the best growth and performance experience in the world.

I live in Cleveland with my family. When I'm not working, I'm on the golf course, being a dad, or building and creating with AI.

Don't just take our word for it

"Dan has nudged us away from our worst impulses, brought clarity to chaos, and provided invaluable counsel as we navigated our toughest challenges. His strengths come not only from his command of consumer marketing, but from his deep understanding of business, startups, and people. I’d invite him to any executive table I was leading and expect his presence to be invaluable."
