Connect with Me

I’m Faye Postma, and for over 15 years, I’ve launched my own startups, ran an LA-based marketing agency for Fortune 500 brands, advised SMBs on how to best stretch their marketing budget, and helped over a dozen other entrepreneurs launch their businesses as a consultant or mentor.

Project No. 9 was created to reach more founders with the strategies that got my brand and others into big name stores like Dillards and Free People, big venues like Dodger’s Stadium and TAO Group, and big publications like NY Times, Food & Wine, and more.

Our mission is to help entrepreneurs strategically launch or market their business with consulting, courses, and a community that are cost-efficient and flexible, using ever-evolving expertise and real-world experience to guide founders and help nurture their startup or small business growth.

  • Director of Marketing & Business Development
    B2C: Spirits Brands (Hemingway Rum/Papa's Pilar) & 3D Printing (Pixsweet)
    B2B: Technology, Spirits Importing, Beverage Production
    Closed deals with Dodgers, Warner Bros., Tao Group, Hulu, and more and received press from Food & Wine, Eater, New York Times, and more

  • Agencies in NYC and Los Angeles
    Worked with clients such as Lenovo, Uniqlo, Western Union, and Microsoft as a Director of Strategy, and later as CEO

Fractional CMO

Emerging or small to medium size businesses need a cohesive marketing leader to help ensure that all areas, from social media to creative content are firing on all cylinders, but a full-time CMO is fiscally out of reach for most SMBs. A fractional CMO can bring a new viewpoint and necessary leadership to your organization.
