Remote marketing consultant · United States
A senior marketing lead for US companies, working remotely from Italy
I’m Mark Chambers: British and Italian, 25 years in marketing, former CMO. I work remotely as a fractional CMO and hands-on consultant for US companies, from strategy to websites, SEO and AI search. One senior contact, no account managers.
Why remote works
Can a marketing consultant in Italy work for a US company?
Yes, and the six-hour gap with New York helps more than it hurts. My afternoon is your morning, so decisions made on your call get worked on the same day, and the written update is waiting when your team logs on. For the West Coast I work async-first, with calls booked in your morning.
US companies hire me for two reasons. Some want senior marketing judgement without a full-time CMO salary. Others want to sell into Italy or Europe and need someone native on both sides. I do both, in native English and native Italian.
Who I help in the US
- Growing SMEs and founder-led brands that need a fractional CMO to set strategy and run the core work.
- US brands entering Italy that need Italian brand, website and search done natively. See how to enter the Italian market.
- Italian-American and importer businesses selling Italian food, wine, design or engineering to American buyers.
- E-commerce brands on Shopify or WooCommerce that want search and AI visibility, not just more ad spend.
Where I work
Which US cities do you work with?
Anywhere in the US, fully remote. Most of my American conversations come from New York, Boston, Miami, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle. East Coast companies get the most live overlap; West Coast companies get async delivery and morning calls.
- Time zones: Italy is six hours ahead of New York and nine ahead of Los Angeles.
- Currency: I can quote and invoice in US dollars.
- Travel: on-site visits when the work justifies them, agreed in advance.
What I do
What can I do for your US business?
- Fractional CMO: strategy, budget, suppliers and monthly reporting. When it beats an agency.
- SEO and GEO: rank on Google and get recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. Test your AI visibility.
- Websites and e-commerce: WordPress, WooCommerce and Shopify, built to be found and to sell.
- Brand and storytelling: positioning and copy that sound native to an American buyer.
- Italian market entry: native Italian brand, site and search for US brands going to Italy.
The receipts
As CMO of Braun Classics I lifted brand visibility by 400%. More recently I took a UK bed brand from page three of Google to page one in nine months, with AI assistants sending 551 visits across three stores. The numbers are in the case study, and the way I work is on the services page.
Frequently asked questions
Do you work with US companies on a fractional CMO basis?
Yes. I work as a remote fractional CMO for US SMEs, on a monthly retainer sized to the days of involvement you need.
Do you write American English?
Yes. I’m a native English speaker and adapt spelling, tone and references for American readers.
How do we start?
With a free 30-minute call, then usually a fixed-scope Corridor Audit so you can judge the work before any retainer.
