Fractional Marketing Leadership
Senior marketing leadership, without the full time hire
For brands that need ongoing senior marketing support, Darling Bloom offers fractional marketing leadership on a retainer basis.
This is suited to retail, hospitality and experience brands that want consistent direction, planning and oversight, without building an internal leadership team.
Fractional support can include strategic planning, campaign oversight, partner coordination, internal guidance and decision support, tailored to your business.

In addition to our core strategy and leadership services, we provide specialist marketing support that can be delivered as standalone engagements or layered into strategic work.
This includes:
Event consulting and launch activations
Influencer strategy and management
Campaign planning and delivery
Content production coordination
Shopping centre and partner alignment
These services are always grounded in strategy and delivered with commercial intent.
“Darling Bloom helped us generate genuine buzz, strong partner support and meaningful visibility for Cookie Monster Café, without relying on paid media. Coreena played a critical role in the success of the Melbourne launch. Her calm leadership, strong relationships and clear thinking helped us achieve real scale and visibility, while navigating the complexities of licensed partnerships with warmth and competence.”
