About

Austin Dillman is a 20-year marketing veteran and fractional growth marketing leader. Startups, Global 500 companies, and private equity firms hire him for fractional marketing leadership at the Director and VP level, deep-dive audits of growth marketing and paid media strategies, and marketing due diligence for potential investments or acquisitions. He also builds fractional teams of specialists across paid media, SEO, ad creative, UI/UX design, and content, advises in-house marketing teams and agencies, and finds opportunities to cut wasted marketing spend, increase revenue, drive down acquisition costs, and improve conversion rates. After 14 years working in-house for companies like Google, Finish Line, and Angie's List, as well as tech startups in Silicon Valley, Austin left the corporate world in 2019 to start his marketing consulting business and joined Chameleon Collective. He has helped companies develop, optimize, and scale their paid media and growth marketing strategies, managing hundreds of millions of dollars in ad spend across Google, Meta (Facebook / Instagram), Twitter, LinkedIn, and other ad platforms. He has also worked with some of the largest PE firms in the world, advising them on paid media strategies for their portfolio companies and leading due diligence marketing audits. Austin works with B2C and B2B clients ranging from startups to Global 500 businesses across industries including retail, eCommerce, SaaS, finance, CPG, health tech, consumer services, and financial apps. His focus is helping companies optimize and scale their paid media with a data-driven approach built on performance rather than vanity metrics.
