Empowering Marketers to Drive Impact and Advance Their Careers

Hi, I'm Kirsten Medder, a Head of Marketing & Demand Generation Coach based in London, United Kingdom. With over 15 years of experience in marketing leadership roles, my passion lies in helping marketers unlock their potential, build impactful strategies, and grow their careers. My coaching focuses on equipping professionals with the skills and insights needed to thrive in areas like demand generation, digital marketing, and marketing strategy. If you're looking to elevate your marketing expertise, create measurable impact, and navigate the challenges of leadership, you're in the right place. Let me share a bit about my journey, coaching approach, and how I can help you achieve your goals.

My Journey: From Digital Marketing to Leadership

I didn't start as a marketing leader. My journey began in website and content management, where I fell in love with the fundamentals of digital marketing - customer journeys, tech, and storytelling. Over time, my curiosity and drive pushed me to explore new areas, eventually leading me to Head of Marketing roles at start-ups. Throughout my career, my obsession has always been the same: understanding the customer. What do they need? How do they research and buy? How can we meet them at that critical intersection of need and fulfilment? These questions became the foundation of my work in demand generation. Demand generation isn't just about generating leads - it's about creating value, building trust, and meeting customers where they are. I've built and executed strategies that deliver proven results, from ABM programs to go-to-market strategies. I've learned a lot along the way, and now, I'm passionate about sharing that knowledge to empower others.

Why I Became a Coach

I know firsthand how challenging it can be to navigate the fast-paced, ever-evolving world of marketing. Early in my career, I was fortunate to have mentors who shared their expertise, helped me tackle challenges, and guided me toward success. Their impact stayed with me, and as I advanced into leadership, I began mentoring junior marketers in my teams. Becoming a Head of Marketing & Demand Generation Coach felt like a natural evolution of my career. I wanted to formalize what I'd already been doing: helping others build their skills, gain confidence, and drive results. Coaching allows me to pass on my experience to other marketers so they can grow their careers and make a real impact.

My Coaching Philosophy

  • Building scalable marketing functions from the ground up.
