About

I’m Chris Turner, a marketing leader focused on building measurable growth funnels across acquisition, activation, conversion and retention. I lead with a performance-first mindset and design multi-channel programs that align paid, organic, CRM and on-site experiences to drive revenue and margin. I enjoy turning data into action, building repeatable systems, and partnering with product, sales and operations to unlock growth.

I thrive in fast-paced, multi-brand environments, leading cross-functional teams of marketers and agencies, and creating dashboards and governance that shift decision-making from opinion to evidence. My goal is to deliver sustainable growth for the business and its customers.
