Fractional Marketing VP | Startup Advisor | Founder of Next Wave Marketing
Emily Hollender will make you an in-demand fractional leader
Hi, I'm Emily! I’m an integrated marketer, community builder, and surfer. I spent a decade working inside marketing teams at high-growth consumer startups like Rent the Runway, The Wing, and Tia.
In January 2023, after getting laid off, feeling burnt out, and exploring my next step, I fell into freelance work. I quickly realized that working 9-5 wasn’t the only option, and I decided to lean in.
After 3+ years, 30+ clients, and nearly tripling my 9-5 salary through fractional, consulting, and advisory work, I'm on Maven to teach you the playbooks, tools, and guidance I wish I had when I started. I hope you'll learn with me.
