A delivery bench for solo marketing managers

You know what needs doing. You need help doing it.

Being the sole marketing professional in a mid-market business is a demanding role. You're responsible for strategy, content, campaigns, the website, analytics, email, social media, and often brand and PR as well. You know what needs to happen, but there simply aren't enough hours in the week to execute everything yourself — and the budget doesn't stretch to a full team.

Nine Stones acts as your delivery bench: a skilled, reliable team that executes the technical and specialist work so you can focus on strategy, stakeholder management, and the creative aspects of your role that benefit most from your knowledge of the business.

How we work with you

We integrate into your workflow rather than imposing ours. You set the priorities — whether that's a landing page build, an email sequence, an SEO improvement plan, or a website update — and we deliver against them within your retainer hours. We use your project management tools, attend your check-ins, and communicate in whatever cadence works for you.

Because we work on a retainer basis, there's no procurement overhead each time you need something done. No briefing documents, no quotes, no purchase orders. You simply assign the work and we get on with it. For a solo marketer juggling multiple priorities, that operational simplicity is as valuable as the work itself.

What you can delegate

The scope of what we deliver is deliberately broad:

• Website updates and feature development
• CRO and A/B testing execution
• SEO technical health and content optimisation
• Email automation setup and management
• Paid media campaign management
• Analytics configuration and reporting

All delivered by experienced practitioners, not junior staff learning on your account.
