Great Reviews and We’re Just Getting Started…
Rikki Kelly, Founder & CEO - EGO Tequila (Wine & Spirits)
“Since joining EGO Tequila as our CMO and board advisor in September 2024, Lesley has been nothing short of transformational. Before her arrival, our marketing efforts were limited to basic PR and social media. Lesley has brought structure, strategy, and a deep well of expertise honed from years at global giants like L’Oréal and P&G — and she's applied it all with heart and precision to our growing brand.
From digital marketing to sales alignment, she hasn't just built our marketing engine — she's taught me, as a founder, how to truly understand and lead it. Lesley also led the charge in securing a pivotal partnership that helped define EGO Tequila’s identity in a competitive market. Her impact has been foundational, and I’m beyond grateful for her leadership, mentorship, and belief in our vision.”
Hilary Nalven, Founder & CEO - Syll Botanics (Beauty)
“Lesley brought a fresh perspective to my brand that I didn’t even realize I needed. With her extensive background in beauty, she was able to quickly grasp the nuances of my business and the market. She took the time to truly listen and understand the core values and vision behind Syll Botanics. Her empathy and thorough approach made me feel confident that she was invested in our success. The recommendations she provided were thoughtful, holistic, and took into consideration the full scope of where my brand is now and where it can go. Her insights have given me a clear path forward, and I’m grateful for her expertise.”
Kristen Wells-Collins, Founder & CEO - Black to the Lab (STEM / Educational Toys)
“Lesley has been a tremendous asset to Black to the Lab during our time working together. Her detailed business analysis and strategic roadmap have provided us with a clear vision for growth, outlining both immediate priorities and long-term pillars for sustainable success. In addition, her resourcefulness and strategic insight have been instrumental in identifying and implementing solutions that support our growth goals.
While Lesley brings a wealth of experience, she stays ahead of industry trends and proactively addresses the unique challenges we face as a brand. Her talent extends beyond her role as a Fractional CMO—Lesley has truly become a partner in our business and a steadfast champion for Black to the Lab’s continued growth.
I highly recommend Lesley to any consumer brand seeking a marketing executive or Fractional CMO with the expertise and vision to scale their business and accelerate their expansion.”
