40+ years combined experience across marketing, operations, energy, government contracting, and business development. We roll up our sleeves alongside your team.
We embed as fractional executives within your organization—attending your meetings, working with your teams, and owning outcomes. This isn't advisory from arm's length. We operate as if we're on payroll, without the full-time cost or long-term commitment.
We assemble bespoke teams from our networks of fractional and freelance talent to match each engagement. Senior-level attention from day one, with the ability to scale as projects demand.
Our backgrounds span wildly different industries. We apply pattern recognition that specialists miss—connecting dots between energy, media, healthcare, government, and consumer markets.
Decades of relationships across brands, agencies, energy producers, investors, and government. Available to solve your specific problem, not packaged as a productized offering.
Operators who've built, scaled, and exited—now embedded in your business.

Ryan Green is a marketing strategist, fractional executive, and business operator with 20+ years of experience building brands, scaling organizations, and driving revenue across advertising, media, biotech, and renewable energy. As employee #1 at Coegi, he helped build the agency from a two-person startup to $60MM+ in annual revenue over 12 years before its successful sale to a private equity firm in 2024. Before entering marketing, Ryan spent seven years as a professional poker player — an experience that sharpened a fundamentally different analytical lens around pattern recognition, risk assessment, and decision-making under uncertainty.
Today, Ryan operates as a Fractional CMO and strategic advisor, partnering with executives across biotech, pharmaceutical, media, and energy sectors. He specializes in brand activation, go-to-market strategy, media planning, agency oversight, audience intelligence, and AI-driven marketing innovation. He is President of the 314 Digital trade association, an Adjunct Professor at the University of Missouri School of Journalism, and an Industry Expert Mentor at Columbia Business School. Having sat on both the agency and brand side, he brings particular value in categories where competitors have gotten complacent — finding the gaps in positioning, audience targeting, and channel strategy that others overlook.
