Ask The CMO a Question

Every business — from early-stage startups to global enterprises — has at least one marketing challenge that keeps its leaders up at night. Here’s your chance to get clarity. Ask one question. Get one clear, actionable answer. No catch. No obligation to work with me. Whether you’re a solo entrepreneur trying to gain traction or part of a corporate marketing team watching campaigns stall, you can bring your toughest challenge to our free “Ask the CMO” Slack community. If you ask, it will be answered. Nothing is off-limits. Just an easy way to get your marketing back on track.

Hi, I’m Jeremy Mays, a veteran Chief Marketing Officer with over 25 years of experience helping startups and enterprise organizations grow, scale, and cut through the noise. This space is simple: you submit one marketing question, and I’ll answer it in our community channel, benefiting everyone from the conversation. No obligation, no fluff—just a clear, direct response you can put to work right away.

With 25 years of leading marketing and product teams, guiding four companies to successful exits, and being at the forefront of digital marketing, I know the difference between strategies that work and those that waste time. So if you’re feeling stuck or can’t quite figure out your next move, this is your chance to get a clear, direct answer and get your marketing back on track.

Here’s how it works:

  1. ✅ Submit your one marketing question using the form on this page. Upon submission, you’ll be taken to join our free community Slack channel. Your first name, category, and question are the only things shared.
  2. ✅ I’ll share my answer in the thread of your question and tag your profile directly so you’re notified of my response.
  3. ✅ After you get your answer, feel free to stick around and browse my responses to other questions in the community. If you’d like more help beyond your single answer, you’re welcome to connect with me for a call. There’s no obligation — your answer, and access to browse all other Q&As, will always be free.

Inappropriate and off-topic questions will be removed automatically. Please maintain professional and respectful decorum or your profile may be removed, and even banned from the community. This is a marketing and strategy community and not a place for uncivil discourse or conversations about other topics.

Ask me your Question.

Everyone gets one free question, and I’ll reply in our community channel so others can benefit too. Keep it focused and specific—the clearer your question, the stronger my answer will be. Contact information in the form is restricted from view in the community, except for your first name.

I post answers every Tuesdays & Friday
