The problem

You hired a PMM team. But they're still waiting on strategy to ship.

Most VPs of Marketing at B2B SaaS companies know what they want their PMM function to produce. The challenge is that building the strategic foundation, the positioning, messaging, ICP, and GTM infrastructure, while also running the day-to-day is nearly impossible without dedicated senior PMM leadership.

01
Your sales team can't explain why you win.
Every rep tells a different story. Competitive deals are inconsistent. Your pitch deck doesn't reflect your actual differentiation.
02
Launches happen to your team, not with them.
Engineering ships, marketing scrambles. No repeatable launch motion, no tiering, no cross-functional alignment before the release notes go out.
03
Your PMM team is executing without a strategy.
They're producing content and supporting campaigns, but without a positioning foundation, none of it compounds into a coherent market story.
04
You don't have time to build the foundation yourself.
You know what needs to be built. But between the pipeline, the board, and the team, the deep strategic PMM work keeps getting deprioritized.
What Elemental PMM does

I build the PMM infrastructure
your team runs on.

PMM is the molecular structure of a go-to-market. Every element has to be in its right place before the compound holds together.

Elemental PMM embeds as a senior strategic advisor to you and a tactical guide to your PMM leader. I assess what you have, prioritize what needs to be built, and either advise your team through building it or build it directly, depending on what the engagement calls for.

The output is a documented, field-ready PMM foundation: positioning your sales team can use, messaging your marketers can execute, and a launch system that compounds with every release. Built in the right order. Built to last.

How it works
Phase 01
We assess what you have and prioritize what to build.
You and I work through a structured audit of your current PMM systems, processes, and gaps. We leave with a ranked list of what matters most and a plan for who builds what.
Phase 02
I build the strategic foundation your team depends on.
Positioning, messaging, ICP, narrative, personas, in the right order. Either advising your team through the work, or delivering it directly. Always documented. Always field-ready.
Phase 03
We activate: launches, enablement, GTM, competitive.
With the foundation in place, we build the execution layer: launch playbooks, sales battlecards, talk tracks, and a GTM motion your team can run without me.

This engagement is right for you if:
You're a VP of Marketing at a B2B SaaS company with a PMM team that needs strategic direction
Your team is executing without a documented positioning or messaging foundation
You need senior PMM expertise without the full-time hire cost or timeline

02 · Services

Every element you need
to go to market.

Four services, each one building on the last. Whether you're starting from scratch or building on what you already have, Elemental PMM can help.

01

Foundation

Your sales team can articulate why you win, your marketing knows exactly who to target, and every downstream deliverable has something solid to stand on.

Explore Foundation
02

Story

Your website, sales deck, and emails say the same thing. Your company has a point of view that earns attention. Your best customer stories are documented and usable by every rep.

Explore Story
03

Field Kit

Every rep opens a meeting on the buyer's problem, not your roadmap. Your team stops rebuilding decks from scratch. Your live and self-guided demos tell the same story.

Explore Field Kit
04

Go-to-Market

Every launch is tiered, prepared, and measured. Product, marketing, sales, and CS run from the same playbook. New reps ramp faster and the field stays sharp without you pushing it.

How engagements work

Every engagement starts with an assessment. The deliverables are determined by what we find, not by a preset package.

Schedule a call →
01
Assessment: we map the gaps together.
A structured audit of your current PMM systems, materials, and processes. We leave with a prioritized list of what to build, a decision on what your team builds vs. what I deliver directly, and a project plan with clear owners and timelines.
02
Foundation: the strategic layer your team runs on.
I build or advise the core PMM infrastructure: positioning, ICP, narrative, messaging framework, and personas. Everything is documented in formats your team can use immediately and own independently after the engagement ends.
03
Activation: strategy turned into field-ready execution.
Launch playbooks, sales battlecards, talk tracks, competitive intel, and a GTM motion. The goal is a PMM function that runs without me, not one that depends on me.
03 · About

Senior PMM
expertise,
without the hire.

Most VPs of Marketing know what a strong PMM function looks like. The problem is getting there, building the positioning foundation, developing the messaging system, and establishing the GTM processes, while running a marketing org at the same time.

Tim Busa has spent a decade building and scaling marketing and product marketing teams at public companies, Series A startups, and everything in between. From repositioning companies at inflection points to building PMM functions from scratch, the work has always been the same: establish the foundational elements first, then build the execution layer on top.

That institutional experience is what Elemental PMM brings to every engagement. Not a framework template. Not a generic playbook. The actual work of building a PMM function that compounds.

01
Your sales team will be able to explain why you win.
Not because I wrote them a pitch, but because the positioning underlying that pitch is documented, differentiated, and built on what actually makes you different, not what sounds good in a deck.
02
Your PMM team will have a system, not just a to-do list.
Every engagement produces documented, reusable frameworks: a message house, a launch playbook, a positioning doc. Materials your team can use, adapt, and build on independently after I'm gone.
03
Your launches will compound, not just happen.
A repeatable launch system means every release builds on the last. Consistent messaging, prepared sales teams, and a GTM motion that gets sharper with every product update, not reinvented from scratch each time.

The base
layer.

Nothing downstream holds without it. Positioning, ICP, and personas are the three elements every other piece of your go-to-market is built on.

01 · Foundation Ps Positioning, ICP & Personas
01PsPositioning
01 · Positioning

The internal document everything else is built on.

The internal document that defines how you see your market, your customer, and your differentiation. The base element everything bonds to.

02IcICP
02 · ICP

More than firmographics — the full picture of your best-fit customer.

Ideal customer profiles that go beyond firmographics — behavioral signals, psychographics, negative ICP, and segment prioritization.

03PnPersonas
03 · Personas

The people behind the profile — documented by role.

The people inside your ICP accounts who buy, block, and champion. Documented by role with goals, pains, and trigger events.

Services included
How I execute this

A structured process that ends with something your team can actually use.

Foundation work is only valuable if it's documented in a format the whole team can access and apply. Every deliverable is built to be used in the field — not filed away.

01
Pre-work and materials audit
I review everything you already have — existing positioning docs, pitch decks, personas, win/loss data — before we meet. I come to the session with hypotheses, not a blank page.
02
Joint working session
A structured 90-minute session with you and your PMM leader. We work through positioning, ICP criteria, and persona roles together. Your input shapes the output — I don't hand you someone else's framework.
03
Drafting and iteration
I produce a first draft of all three documents within a week. We do one round of structured feedback and refinement. The goal is a tight, usable set of documents — not a 40-page strategy deck.
04
Delivery and handoff
Final documents delivered in your format of choice. I walk your team through how to use them — including how to brief new hires, update them as the market evolves, and apply them to downstream deliverables.

Where strategy
becomes language.

Narrative, messaging, and use cases answer the three questions every buyer is asking: why does this exist, what does it do for me, and why should I believe you.

02 · Story Nv Narrative, Messaging & Use Cases
01MgMessaging
01 · Messaging

The message house your whole team works from.

A full message house — master value proposition, pillar messages, proof points, and per-persona variants your whole team can apply.

02NvNarrative
02 · Narrative

What you believe, before what you sell.

The "what we believe" company story. The market problem, the vision, the right to win. The through-line that makes all your marketing feel coherent.

03UcUse Cases
03 · Use Cases

Proof that makes the messaging credible.

Named use cases with quantified outcomes and customer proof points. The evidence layer that makes your messaging credible, not just assertive.

Services included
How I execute this

Built on your Foundation — not from scratch.

Story work is only possible after the Foundation is in place. The positioning, ICP, and personas become the inputs. The output is language your whole team can use.

01
Foundation review
I review the positioning, ICP, and persona documents — either from the Foundation engagement or existing materials. These become the brief for all Story work.
02
Narrative draft
I draft the company narrative first — the "what we believe" story. This becomes the voice and point of view that all messaging inherits.
03
Message house build
Master value proposition, three to four pillar messages, proof points by pillar, per-persona variants. Built in a format your whole team can reference and apply.
04
Use case documentation
Customer stories structured as named use cases: the problem, the solution, the outcome, and the proof. Mapped to your personas and buyer journey stages.

Ready to build your Story?

Requires Foundation or equivalent existing materials.

Strategy your
reps can open.

Pitch decks, solutions decks, and demo flows are the artifacts that live in a folder and get opened in front of a customer. Built on your positioning — not around your product tour.

03 · Field Kit Pd Pitch Decks, Solutions Decks & Demo Flows
01PdPitch Decks
01 · Pitch Decks

Built on positioning, not a product tour.

A modular, persona-driven pitch built on your positioning. Pain-framed opening, value prop by segment, competitive differentiation, proof points.

02SdSolutions Decks
02 · Solutions Decks

Specific to the buyer, without starting from scratch.

Use-case and persona-specific decks that speak directly to the buyer in the room — without requiring your team to rebuild from scratch for every deal.

03DdDemo Flows
03 · Demo Flow

A narrative, not a feature walkthrough.

A demo narrative that maps product moments to buyer pains. Consistent across reps, aligned with your self-guided demo, and framed on outcomes.

Services included
How I execute this

Artifacts built on strategy — not assembled from scratch.

Field Kit work is the translation layer between your Story and what a rep does in a meeting. Every artifact is built to reflect your positioning — so they reinforce each other instead of contradicting each other.

01
Audit existing materials
I review your current pitch deck, demo recording, and any solutions collateral. I identify what to keep, what to rebuild, and what's missing.
02
Narrative structure first
Before any slide is built, I write the narrative arc — the story the pitch deck and demo need to tell. Structure and flow before design.
03
Build in modular format
Decks are built as modular slide libraries — a core deck plus persona and segment modules your team can swap in without rebuilding from scratch.
04
Rep training and handoff
I brief your sales team on how to use the materials — the talk track, where to customize, how to adjust by persona. The Field Kit is only useful if reps know how to use it.

The motion
that scales.

Launch system, GTM motion, and enablement are the operating layer. How you bring things to market repeatedly, keep your field sharp, and build momentum that compounds.

04 · Go-to-Market Gt Launch System, GTM Motion & Enablement
01LxLaunch System
01 · Launch System

A repeatable process, not a scramble.

A repeatable launch process with tiers, readiness checklists, messaging briefs, and post-launch measurement. Built to compound with every release.

02GtGTM Motion
02 · GTM Motion

One operating model, every function aligned.

Cross-functional GTM alignment: segment strategy, channel prioritization, land-and-expand motion, and the operating model that keeps everyone pointed at the same target.

03EnEnablement
03 · Enablement

What keeps the field current as the market moves.

Talk tracks, objection handling, onboarding programs, and a refresh cadence that keeps your field current as your positioning and market evolve.

Services included
How I execute this

Systems that run without me when the engagement ends.

GTM work is only valuable if your team can operate it independently. Every deliverable is designed to be owned and run by your people — with clear processes, owners, and cadences built in.

01
Current state audit
I review your current launch process, GTM operating model, and enablement materials. I identify the gaps that are costing you the most — and prioritize from there.
02
Cross-functional alignment session
A working session with your marketing, sales, and product leaders to align on segment priorities, GTM roles, and the launch process. Decisions documented, not just discussed.
03
System build
Launch playbook, GTM operating model, and enablement materials built in parallel. Everything is connected — the launch process feeds the enablement, the GTM motion shapes the launch tiers.
04
Activation and handoff
I run the first cycle with your team — the first launch through the new process, the first GTM planning session, the first enablement update. Then I hand off with clear ownership and cadence documentation.

Your PMM
Assessment.

Before we build anything, we get aligned. Two focused conversations to understand your GTM goals, identify where you're strongest and where you're not, and decide together where to start.

Request Your Assessment
2Focused conversations — one to listen and learn, one to align on a path forward
~2Weeks from first conversation to a clear, agreed-upon starting point
You leave knowing exactly where to focus and why — not a list of everything that could be better
What this is

Every engagement starts the same way: a real conversation about where your business is trying to go and where your PMM function is getting in the way.

Most marketing leaders already have a sense of what's not working. The assessment is about getting specific — naming the gaps, understanding which ones are actually blocking progress, and deciding what to address first. That's work worth doing before anything gets built.

The output isn't a report. It's a shared point of view on where to start, and the confidence to actually start there.

01
No deliverables owed before we've agreed on a direction
This isn't a consulting project disguised as a free kickoff. It's two conversations designed to make sure any work we do together starts in the right place.
02
You can bring materials — or not
If you have positioning docs, a pitch deck, or messaging frameworks, share them ahead of the first call. They give me context. But the conversation works either way.
03
No obligation to engage further
You'll leave with a clearer picture of your PMM gaps and a prioritized view of where to focus — whether we work together after that or not.
How it works

Two conversations. About two weeks. A clear starting point.

Your time commitment is two calls — roughly an hour each. Everything else happens between them, on my end.

01
Conversation one — week one
We talk through your GTM objectives, what you're seeing in the market, and where your PMM function feels like it's holding you back. You share what you believe the biggest gaps are. I ask questions. If you have materials to share beforehand, I'll review them before we meet — it makes the conversation sharper. Plan for about an hour.
Between calls
I synthesize what I heard, map it against the 15 PMM elements, and form a point of view on where the real leverage is. Not a list of everything that could be improved — a specific, prioritized read on where to start and why.
02
Conversation two — week two
I share my read: here's what I heard, here's where I think the gaps are, here's where I'd recommend starting. We discuss, pressure-test it, and align on a direction. If there's a natural fit for an engagement, we'll talk about what that looks like. If not, you still leave with something useful.
