JEREMY ALLEN VILLANO

Hello.

 
IMG_1025.jpg

I'm Jeremy. Over 25 years of scaling companies, and still at it.

Growth · Marketing · Strategy & Ops

I started in agencyland. Ogilvy, FCB, BBDO, Huge, Interbrand. Big brands, big ideas, inspiring colleagues, but someone else's company at the end of every project.

So I went in-house. Co-founding a gaming startup, followed by building retails brands out of online product winners for an Amazon aggregator. Then DailyPay, where I ran digital acquisition for three years, outlasted three CEOs, and talked the board into funding an AI rollout that (most of) the company actually used.

Then I spent a year searching for a business to buy, my shop to own and operate. I looked at over a thousand businesses. Made two offers, and got one to the altar, but walked when the math didn't hold. Now I read a company the way a sponsor does.

What I'm good at: finding where a business is leaking growth, fixing it, and then stepping on the gas.

What I'm looking for: a full-time or fractional operating seat (VP Growth, VP Strategy & Ops, GM) at a growth company, or advisory work with a sponsor's portfolio. If you've got a demand or growth problem, let's talk.
