Enterprise Content & Marketing Consulting
Senior advisory for enterprise marketing leaders who know great content runs on systems - not heroics.
Build
Build the system that makes great marketing actually run.
Most marketing teams aren't broken — they're stuck inside a system that doesn't fit how they actually work.
Seventh Bear helps marketing and content operations leaders design the system that fixes that: smarter strategy, tighter governance, cleaner workflows, and the operating model to make it all run reliably at scale.

Three engagement shapes, designed to meet you where the work actually is.
Content Orchestration Model Diagnostic
A four- to six-week engagement that audits how your content operation actually runs — strategy, governance, story, distribution, technology, measurement — and delivers not just a diagnosis of what's broken, but a focused roadmap for fixing it. Fixed scope. Fixed price.
Best For
Marketing leaders who can articulate that "content isn't working" but need an outside read to know precisely where the system is breaking down.
Pricing
$25,000 – $40,000 · fixed
Marketing Foundations Diagnostic
A four- to six-week engagement that acts like a structural survey for your marketing department. While most consultants look at the paint on the walls, Seventh Bear helps you examine the foundation and the wiring. We identify the hidden bottlenecks in your go-to-market plan, ensuring your team isn't just working hard, but working on the right sequence of tasks to actually move the needle. We don't just deliver a diagnosis of what's broken, but a focused roadmap for fixing it. Fixed scope. Fixed price.
Best For
Marketing executives who feel their team is constantly 'busy' but lacking momentum, and need a clear, prioritized audit to ensure they are doing the right things in the right order.
Pricing
$25,000 – $30,000 · fixed
Strategic Advisory Retainer
Embedded senior counsel for the CMO and/or the content team. Strategy, governance, editorial standards, team coaching, executive sounding board, decision support. Three-month, six-month, or annual commitments.
Best For
Marketing leaders who need senior content strategy thinking on tap — without hiring a full-time exec for it.
Pricing
Monthly retainer · calibrated to commitment length and intensity
What This Looks Like In Practice
Across these engagement shapes, we typically work on:
Content and Marketing Orchestration
Content operating model design — governance, workflows, decision rights, content lifecycle, taxonomy
Editorial strategy and standards — what stories to tell, how to tell them, how to keep quality high at scale
Team structure and capability — what roles you need, how to hire, how to coach existing team into new shapes
Marketing technology fit — what your stack should do, what it shouldn't, how to make it serve strategy
Measurement that means something — KPIs that connect content to business outcomes (and not the other way around)
What Success Looks Like
“We had great internal talent, but a short timeline. We knew we needed to extend our team with outside experts who could advise on what has worked best in a multitude of situations. Seventh Bear helped us move efficiently, effectively and gain quick internal credibility. I'm grateful we found them — and they also made the work a heck of a lot of fun.
