01 / WHY ACCELERATE

The team behind your game.Without the hiring burden, agency distance, or publisher cut.

More than a fractional CMO. Your own specialist team to plan, create, launch, and grow.

01

Hundreds of games.
Hands-on leadership.

Veterans of Blizzard, Xbox, Epic, and Nintendo, our team has helped launch and grow 300+ games generating over $10B in combined global revenue. We bring decades of experience across platforms and business models—and firsthand experience founding indie studios and launching our own games. Big-studio discipline. Indie resourcefulness.

02

Less overhead.
More ownership.
Fully embedded.

Get a dedicated marketing team at a lower cost than equivalent internal hires. Keep your rights and revenue instead of giving a publisher a share. And work with specialists embedded in your day-to-day operations, with responsibility beyond a typical agency project.

03

Community first.
Growth that builds.

Find your fans early. Give them a voice in the journey and a reason to stay. We help turn those first believers into lasting advocates who spread the word, welcome new players, and stand behind your game through challenges. Then we amplify that earned enthusiasm through coordinated paid, owned, and earned media.

04

Backed by
Ayzenberg.

An award-winning agency with over 30 years in games, Ayzenberg has partnered with industry leaders including Xbox, The Pokémon Company, and Capcom. Your embedded team draws on that experience and its creative, research, production, and media resources—bringing major-brand expertise to your game, at the scale you need.

08 / A FEW ANSWERS

Good
questions.

What does fractional marketing mean?

A dedicated external team provides senior leadership and hands-on execution for an agreed scope. We integrate with your people and working rhythm, with responsibilities and resources defined around your needs.

Can you work alongside our existing team?

Yes. We can fill specific gaps or take responsibility for broader marketing operations, with clear ownership across your internal team and ours.

How are your fees structured?

Our embedded fractional marketing partnerships are negotiated as a flat monthly retainer. The fee reflects your scope, goals, and game’s stage—from Foundation to Growth to Launch—and can scale up or down as those needs change.

Do you also take on individual projects?

Yes. We offer project engagements for specific needs. For a full campaign, we’ve found an ongoing embedded partnership more efficient: you have a dedicated team that knows your game, connects strategy with execution, and adapts as priorities shift.
