Your business has stopped growing — even though the product is good.
I clear the fog and build what works. External marketing and sales partner for SMEs in the March region, around Lake Zurich, and for B2B teams across Switzerland.

The Swiss SME Reality
You're the CEO, the sales rep, and the de facto CMO — all at once.
In Switzerland, there's barely a mid-market in the classic sense. Companies are either large — with a marketing department, HR team, and communication strategy — or they're small.
Really small.
Most successful SMEs in the March region, in Pfäffikon, or in Altendorf have three to ten people in the office. The owner wears all hats at once. Marketing happens on the side — well-intentioned, but without a system.
That's not a weakness. That's the reality in which growing Swiss companies operate.
And sometimes something else happens: someone leaves — a marketing lead departs, a key person moves on — and suddenly marketing stops. No internal know-how, no plan, no handover.
I work in exactly this reality — whether as a Fractional Executive for long-term development or as an interim marketing director when things need to move fast. Temporary, clearly defined, with measurable results.

Who I am
I'm not a consultant who writes reports and disappears.
My name is Remco Livain. I live and work in the March region — and I work as a Fractional Executive for companies that need real execution, not more slides.
For over 20 years, I've worked with companies in D2C, Beauty, and Health — as an external CMO, sales director, and strategy advisor. I've worked at corporate level and know what real structures look like.
What sets me apart from an agency: I sit on your side of the table.
I have no interest in selling you more than you need. My goal is to make myself redundant — because your team can carry the work forward on their own.

How I work
Three phases. Clear structure. No open end.
Every engagement starts with an honest assessment and ends with your team being able to carry the work forward. No permanent dependency. No monthly retainer without end.
Phase 01
Stabilize
What's really blocking growth? I quickly create clarity about the two or three levers that make the biggest difference right now. No analysis for the sake of analysis.
Phase 02
Build
We build what's missing: positioning, demand system, sales process — simple, documented, actionable. Not for a large corporation with ten specialists. For a team of three to fifteen people.
Phase 03
Hand over
I train your team until the new structures run independently. Then I step back. That's the plan from day one.
