Fractional CMO

Your product is ready. Your customers aren't.

Most early-stage B2B startups have a brilliant solution and zero pipeline. That's not a product problem - it's a marketing problem. We built the 9-module accelerator that helps you find your ICP, craft your message, and generate predictable revenue - without the guesswork or the agency fluff.

               
           

Straightforward strategies for growth

If you want flashy, Mad Men-style marketing, we’re not the right fit. We know many agencies are full of fluff. We’re a straightforward, no-nonsense growth consultancy focused on delivering real results that boost your bottom line.

The 9 modules we'll use to grow your startup

Define your market position, identify your wedges, and build a battle plan that actually wins.

Stop shouting at everyone. Map out exactly who buys, why they buy, and where they live online.

Your value proposition, distilled into words that resonate. No confusion, no jargon, no ambiguity.

Create content that educates your market, attracts the right eyeballs, and pre-sells before you ever pitch.

Outreach that cuts through the noise. Written to get opened, designed to get replied to.

Turn your personal profile into a lead-gen machine. Build authority while you build your pipeline through content & enggement

Shorten your cycle, sharpen your pitch, and close faster with less friction.

The right tools for your stage. Not the expensive ones. The ones that actually move the needle.

Track what matters, dump what doesn't, and scale what works. Data without direction is just noise.

Identifying the need...

I didn't build NexGen to offer "services." I built it because I watched brilliant founders burn.

I'm Barry Rodrigues. 25 years in marketing. I've worked with brands you'd recognise and startups you'd never hear of - because they didn't make it.

Here's what I learned: the founders who failed didn't have bad products. They had great products and zero customers. They were building in a silo, guessing at marketing, and burning cash on tactics that worked in 2015.

In 2026, the game has changed. Your ICP is on LinkedIn. They're researching on their own terms. And the old playbooks? They're dead.

So I built what I wish I'd had when I was in your shoes: a 9-module system that covers strategy, messaging, outbound, and sales - no fluff, just growth.

You build the product. We'll help you build your pipeline.

JOIN OUR MARKETING ACCELERATOR

Who is this accelerator for?

We typically work with early-stage B2B startups and SMEs that have a proven product or service and a roadmap. This accelerator is for founders who

Have a product that works but simply can't find customers

You built a brilliant product. Now you need people to actually buy it.

Are tired of random revenue and want predictable growth.

Revenue shouldn't be a lottery. You need a system that brings customers on autopilot.

Are done reading marketing books and want a system that works.

You've read the guides. Now you need a blueprint that executes, not just explains.

Can't justify a full-time CMO but can benefit from the strategic thinking

 You need a CMO's brain without the CMO's salary. We'll be that thinking partner.

Are the smartest person in the room but drowning in day-to-day ops.

You're brilliant at your craft. But ops are stealing your time from growth.

Are continously making decisions based on gut, but not on actual data

Gut gets you started. Data keeps you scaling. We'll help you build the numbers.

Why having a great product isn't enough...

"A startup is a company designed to grow fast. The only essential thing is growth. Everything else we associate with startups follows from growth."

Paul Graham

Entrepreneur & Venture Capitalist

"If you can get even a single distribution channel to work, you have a great business. If you try for several but don’t nail one, you’re finished. "

Peter Thiel

Entrepreneur, co-founder of PayPal, Venture Capitalist

"Almost every failed startup has a product. What failed startups don’t have are enough customers."

What kind of businesses can benefit for the growth accelerator?

Typically, our accelerator works best for businesses in the B2B space. This can include service based businesses, SaaS businesses, consulting and coaching businesses and any business that has a ticket price upwards of $2000.

What modules does the accelerator offer?

NexGen Digital is a growth consultancy that offers a 9-module accelerator program to help early-stage startups and small businesses scale. This program consists of identifying your target audience, defining your messaging, creating a content roadmap, running cold email outreach, LinkedIn engagement and outreach, sales process mapping, building a technology stack, handlong your prospect data, and identifying  your OKRs & metrics and takes 9 weeks to complete.

How long does the accelerator last?

The accelerator consists of 9 modules and runs over a course of 10 to 12 weeks. This excludes 2 weeks for the Christmas/New Year holidays and UK bank holidays.

Is there a chance the accelerator can run longer?

Yes, this tends to happen if a client decides to take a break due to other commitments. We allow for a maximum break of 4 weeks in these cases.

Can it be done quicker?

Ideally, each module lasts for a week apart from the initial module which may take 2 weeks. However, the quickest time.it can be completed is 10 weeks.

How does the accelerator work?

The accelerator is a combination of coaching, consulting and servicing. The initial modules are strategy focused and the bottom half are tactical. We work with founders on the strategic parts and your designated employee on the tactical campaigns.

What is my involvement?

We ask that founders or co-founders (decision-makers) be involved in all the modules. However, if isn't possible, we ask that you attend the first 4 modules and have a marketing or sales person attend the remaining modules.

How much does the accelerator cost?

The cost of the accelerator is £6000. For most early stage startups, this is an investment that is well worth it because it is a framework that can be scaled for the short to medium term (6 months to 2 years) to drive revenue until they get to the Series A or B funding stage.

How long before I see a difference in my business?

The accelerator is a combination of strategy and tactics. The strategic initiatives  will bear long term fruit but are crucial on a foundational level. On the other hand, tactics like cold email outreach and LinkedIn will starts showing results 4 to 5 weeks into the program. However, this varies on your product, your industry and the amount of work you put it.
