Or maybe you just want to talk about growing your business? Either way, I enjoy meeting new people and talking big ideas. Shoot me a line. *And thanks for visiting*. [Email Chris](mailto:cgmedenwald@gmail.com) ## FAQs ### Who do you work with? I specialize in small to medium B2B businesses or other businesses with a long sales cycle. If your business depends on lead generation, then we're very possibly a good fit. I especially enjoy working with sales professionals and empowering their work through quality leads and valuable content. ### What marketing activities do you specialize in? While I have years of experience in areas like content marketing, SEO/GEO, and email marketing, I purposely avoid focusing on just one channel. Instead, I evaluate the full spectrum of marketing strategies, channels, and tactics to experiment and grow each client's business. Versatility and experimentation are core parts of my approach. ### Are you strictly a digital marketer? Most of my work is digital, but I also have experience with analog channels such as direct mail and print ads. It's not about doing digital marketing; it's about doing marketing effectively in a digital world — which sometimes means going non-digital. ### Do you require a salary or benefits? Nope. I work as a 1099 contractor. I do not require a salary or benefits like medical insurance or 401k contributions, and I pay my own employment taxes. ### Does it take a long-term commitment to work with you? Short answer: no. I partner with my clients on a month-to-month basis. That said, growth marketing usually takes time and patience to see meaningful results. ### How can I get in touch with you? Feel free to email me at [cgmedenwald@gmail.com](mailto:cgmedenwald@gmail.com). I look forward to hearing from you.   [![Growth Awaits](https://chrismedenwald.com/hubfs/Growth%20(1).svg "Growth Awaits")](https://www.chrismedenwald.com?hsLang=en) ![Get a Sample Marketing Email to Your Inbox (1) (1)](https://chrismedenwald.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Get%20a%20Sample%20Marketing%20Email%20to%20Your%20Inbox%20(1)%20(1).webp?width=200&height=156&name=Get%20a%20Sample%20Marketing%20Email%20to%20Your%20Inbox%20(1)%20(1).webp "Get a Sample Marketing Email to Your Inbox (1) (1)") *Connect with me on social* [linkedin-in icon](https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-medenwald/) [facebook-f icon](https://www.facebook.com/chris.medenwald) [instagram icon](https://www.instagram.com/chris_of_the_wald/) © Chris Medenwald, 2026
