When growth slows, everyone blames marketing. They're usually wrong.
I look at the whole business, not the ad. What blocks growth is often the offer, the funnel, or the price. I find which one, and fix it.

Does this sound familiar?
- Your ad costs climb every quarter while returns shrink.
- Leads come in, then stall and never close.
- Growth has flattened and no one can name the reason.
- You are spending more to stand still.
These are symptoms, not the problem. The cause is usually one weak part of the business, and I find which one.
Growth breaks at the weakest part.
Every business runs on a machine with seven parts. I run your whole business through it before I touch a campaign, find the part holding you back, and fix the problem where it lives.
Marketing
Demand, positioning, message, and brand. My core.
Sales & Customer Relationships
Follow-up, conversion, retention, and CRM.
Operations
Whether the business delivers what marketing promises.
Employees & Freelancers
The team and partners who execute the work.
Finance
Unit economics, pricing, margins, CAC and LTV.
Management & Leadership
Priorities, decisions, accountability, alignment.
Development & Innovation
Product, offer, new lines, and what comes next.
The result
One owner, the real constraint named, and a plan to fix it.
Marketing is my core. The other six tell me whether marketing is even your real problem.
Marketing leadership, not a channel menu.
I own the strategy and the number, then drive the execution. I lead deepest on marketing and the parts next to it. I diagnose the rest and tell you the truth.
Strategy & Offer
Set the direction, sharpen the positioning, and fix the offer and pricing when the pain lives there.
Demand & Paid Growth
Google, LinkedIn, and Facebook across the full funnel. Data-driven and accountable to revenue.
Conversion & Funnel
Most of the money is lost after the click. I optimize landing pages and funnels so traffic converts.
Team & Tracking
Build a high-performing team, manage agencies, and set up clean attribution and ad-tech.
I will not sell you marketing you do not need.
A senior operator, not an account manager. I diagnose the whole business first, then tell you the truth, even when the answer is you do not have a marketing problem.
You work with the operator
At an agency, the senior person wins the pitch and a junior runs your account. With me, the senior operator owns your account every week.
I fix the broken part, not the easy one
I diagnose the whole business before I spend a dollar. If the constraint is your price or your sales follow-up, I name it.
Strategy and execution in one
Consultants advise and leave. Agencies execute without owning the plan. I own both, and I report to revenue.
I also turn down work. I will not market what preys on people. Selectivity keeps the work honest and keeps me focused on a few clients at a time.
From a second opinion to your whole marketing function.
One scale, five rungs. Almost every engagement starts with a Machine Check, then moves up only when the work earns the next step.
Machine Check
Diagnose★ Recommended starting pointThe natural entry point. A written review of all seven parts and a prioritized 90-day plan. A senior outside opinion before you commit to a budget or hire.
Advisory
AdviseA recurring strategy partner for your CEO or marketing lead. Monthly sessions and live decisions. Your team executes.
Strategy & Go-to-Market Build
DesignThe full strategy, offer, channel plan, and measurement, built to hand off. For a launch, a pivot, or a scale moment.
Fractional CMO
LeadI own the marketing strategy and the numbers, lead your team and agencies, and report to revenue. The core engagement.
CMO-as-a-Service
RunI build and run the whole marketing function end to end, owning the budget, the team, and the delivery.
15 years building the whole machine.
I'm Matan Levanon, founder of MTN. Over 15 years I have built demand across B2B, SaaS, and B2C, from venture-backed startups to enterprise. I have led performance teams of up to ten people, managed a $60M annual portfolio and $5M monthly budgets, and grew the US business 10x in a year at Humanz.
I have led growth and paid media at Humanz, Media Brainers, Crazy Labs, and Ladbrokes Coral, running international campaigns across Google, LinkedIn, Facebook, display, social, and affiliate channels.
What ties it together: I fix the problem where it lives. Many marketers stop at the message. I start with the whole business and own the outcome to revenue.
I keep a narrative steady when the ground shifts by the hour. Alongside business, I hold a senior leadership role in a high-stakes, security-sensitive field, where I lead narrative across sensitive audiences, coordinate with national-level partners, and manage crises as they unfold. The discipline of owning a story through changing realities is what I bring to the companies I work with.
