Fractional Head of eCommerce

Senior eCommerce leadership, without the full-time hire.

I help PE-backed and mid-size consumer brands grow on Amazon and retail.com: big-brand strategy, hands-on execution, and lean, AI-enabled teams.

You might need me if

Amazon is growing, but margin isn't.
You pay agencies, but no one owns the strategy.
You need a lean eCom team and don't know what to hire vs. automate.
Your board wants a credible eCommerce plan.

How I help

Find what's blocking growth, fix it, then scale what works.

Retailers

Amazon · Walmart · Target · Home Depot · Costco · Wayfair · Kroger

How AI fits

I don't just recommend AI. I run my own business on it.

My own content brand runs on a 5-role AI team that produces a full week of multi-channel content and a live growth dashboard every week, with me reviewing, not doing. I bring the same approach to eCommerce teams: clear roles, clear rules and a human review step.

  • Strategist & Analyst · weekly numbers and what to do next
  • Creative Strategist · the weekly brief
  • Content Producer · a week of content, drafted
  • Revenue Lead · offers and partnerships
  • Brand QA · nothing ships off-brand

How we can work together

Monthly retainer

Ongoing fractional leadership of your eCom plan, team and agencies, a few days a month.

Fixed-scope project

An audit, a team design or an Amazon reset, with a clear deliverable and timeline.

Advisory

A senior sounding board for your CEO, eCom lead or PE operating partner.

About

Hi, I'm Amanda.

I've spent 16+ years on the brand side of eCommerce, most recently leading eCommerce and digital marketing as a Sr. Director at two private-equity-owned consumer brands, Bradshaw Home and NBG Home, after roles at Newell Brands and Kimberly-Clark. I've sat in the board meetings, owned the P&L and built the teams. Now I bring that experience to brands that need senior leadership without a full-time hire. Based in Atlanta, working remotely.
