Built To Last Marketing
For marketing leaders who want more than a seat at the table and who want a voice that shapes the future.
Hi, I’m Emma Clayton, ex-CMO, organisational psychologist. My clients call me “Mary Poppins of Marketing”. I am a wing woman for marketing leaders who want more than a title and influence….that lasts.
I’ve spent over 25 years in marketing, helping ambitious businesses, marketing leaders and executives prove their worth, rise into leadership, and drive growth in complex, often chaotic environments. And now, I’m sharing everything I know - every lesson, insight, and tool, in Built to Last.
Receive a weekly insight each Sunday that discusses solutions to elevating marketing within an organisation and tools to help you accelerate your career and leadership.
Or become a paid subscriber and receive additional weekly mentoring each Wednesday. This weekly mentoring is for marketing leaders who are:
Stuck in the middle between execution and executive impact
Overlooked for roles they’re qualified to lead
Tired of defending marketing’s value instead of shaping business strategy
Each week, paid members receive smart strategies, career-changing tools, and brutally honest insight to help you:
Elevate your influence
Lead with confidence
Secure your next role or promotion
Build a career that commands respect, not just delivers results
I’m not a fan of bullshit, and I don’t sugar-coat. I’ll be brutally honest about what it really takes to lead, influence, and stay relevant in this role, but I’ll always be on your side.
Because marketing leadership shouldn't feel like survival.
It should feel like Built to Last.
