Lindsay Miranda-Gill

VP of Marketing or Growth, Head of Growth, Marketing and Sales Director, Fractional CMO/CRO

I’m the growth leader with 20+ years of experience who owns the number and finds the fastest way to move it.

I take the funnel, pricing and ad spend you already have and make them work harder: more pipeline, bigger deals and more profit, without starting over.

Results I’ve delivered

Every number here comes from my work history. I’m happy to walk you through exactly how I got each one.

  • Grew pipeline and sales

    Built full-funnel acquisition, follow-up and RevOps systems: campaigns, lifecycle messaging, lead routing and reporting.

    25%+
  • Raised average deal value

    Rolled out pricing and offer changes, backed by buyer-psychology sales scripts, training and checklists. Close rates improved too.

    33%+
  • Cut manual lead-routing time

    Built AI-enabled workflows for lead enrichment, routing, follow-up and dashboards, so sales reaches new leads faster.

    ~40%
  • Generated leads from partners

    Scaled alliance-based lead generation, with attribution so every partner channel shows the revenue it brings in.

    100+ a month
  • Found reclaimable profit

    Ran Profit Optimization Audits for small and mid-market companies at roughly $3M to $12M in revenue. That’s per client.

    $5K+ a month

I fix what’s already there before I build anything new

Most companies don’t need a rebuild. They need a few smart changes in the right places. My strength is optimization: finding the low-hanging fruit that moves the needle fast.

Quick wins first

I look for the changes that are easy to make and pay off quickly: pricing, offers, follow-up speed, conversion gaps and wasted spend.

Measure everything

The numbers are the boss. If it can be counted, I count it. That’s how we know what to keep, what to fix and what to stop.

Systems, not one-off campaigns

Acquisition, conversion and retention connected with RevOps and AI-enabled automation, reviewed in a weekly KPI meeting with marketing, sales and finance.

Some of the key numbers I watch

I track the whole funnel, from the first click to the last dollar of profit. Here’s what each one means.

Return on ad spend (ROAS)
What you earn back for every dollar you spend on ads.
Cost per acquisition (CPA)
What it costs to win one new customer.
Conversion at every funnel step
How many people move from one step to the next, and where they drop off.
Customer lifetime value
How much a customer spends with you over time.
Sales
The top line, tracked against pipeline and goals.
Profit
What’s left after costs. The number that actually pays for growth.

I believe the numbers don’t lie, so it’s important to know the starting point so we can reach your growth goals.

Three small changes can double your profit

This is the 6/5/5 framework I use with clients: grow revenue 6%, cut cost of goods 5% and cut overhead 5%. None of these is a big swing. Together, they compound.

Profit scenarios for a $5 million business
Scenario Revenue COGS Overhead Net profit Change
Baseline today$5,000,000$2,500,000$2,000,000 $500,000 n/a
Revenue +6% only$5,300,000$2,500,000$2,000,000 $800,000 +60%
COGS −5% only$5,000,000$2,375,000$2,000,000 $625,000 +25%
Overhead −5% only$5,000,000$2,500,000$1,900,000 $600,000 +20%
All three together$5,300,000$2,375,000$1,900,000 $1,025,000 +105%
  • $525Kin new annual profit, from what’s already in the business
  • $1.575Madded enterprise value at a conservative 3× multiple
  • $0spent on new customer acquisition to get there

Illustrative example for a $5M business at a 10% net margin. The revenue gain assumes the extra sales come from better pricing, offers and conversion on existing demand, so delivery costs don’t rise with it. The same percentages scale to any revenue level.

The Compounding Optimization Formula - 6/5/5 framework

Three examples of how the same three levers play out in different businesses. Each one grows revenue 6%, cuts cost of goods 5% and cuts overhead 5%.

A B2B professional services firm

$4M revenue

Steady referrals and a loyal client base, but flat growth. The owner was working harder and keeping the same 10% margin.

  • +6%
    Revenue: better pricing and follow-up

    Raised prices on new work, added a tiered offer, and trained the team on buyer-psychology sales scripts. Every proposal now gets a follow-up sequence within 48 hours.

  • −5%
    COGS: delivery costs

    Re-scoped the delivery hours on each project type and renegotiated two subcontractor rates.

  • −5%
    Overhead: tools and spend

    Cancelled unused software seats and merged overlapping tools into one stack.

A B2C online retailer

$8M revenue

Strong sales, thin margin. Ad spend kept rising, but profit didn’t.

  • +6%
    Revenue: checkout and repeat orders

    Fixed leaks in the checkout and email follow-up funnel, and added a post-purchase offer to lift average order value and repeat orders.

  • −5%
    COGS: suppliers and shipping

    Renegotiated supplier terms and shipping rates, and reduced returns by fixing unclear product pages.

  • −5%
    Overhead: low-return spend

    Cut ad spend and agency retainers that weren’t paying back, and automated manual order and support tasks.

A B2B software company

$3.2M revenue

Healthy trial sign-ups, but too many trials never turned into paying customers, and costs had crept up since the growth years.

  • +6%
    Revenue: packaging and speed to lead

    Re-packaged the pricing tiers, tightened trial-to-paid follow-up, and used AI-enabled routing to get hot leads to sales faster.

  • −5%
    COGS: hosting and data costs

    Right-sized hosting and renegotiated third-party data and API contracts.

  • −5%
    Overhead: stack and reporting
