Hi, I’m Madeline Gryll.

I’m a fractional CMO and boutique agency leader specializing in healthcare, climate, & sustainably-minded consumer goods.

I got my start working in digital strategy for Coca-Cola & FOX Sports, and I now use my legacy brand experience to help brands prepare for scale.

Highlights:

• 1st marketer at Well+Good, a digital publisher acquired by Leaf Group/Live Strong

• Executive leadership at Brideside, a VC-backed retailer featured in WWD & Fashionista.

  • VPMarketing & CX, interim Head of Merchandising & People. Grew company from 30 to 150 employees

  • Positioned & launched 3 private label brands

  • Opened 3 stores in tier 1 markets (in <90 days!)

  • Operated against 100% year-over-year growth plan

fun stuff + passion projects

• Guest Lecturer, Northwestern Kellogg Retail Club

• Two-time Webby Award Winner: Coca-Cola: Advertising, Media & PR CSR Campaign & Well+Good “People’s Choice” Lifestyle Website

• Fundraiser & Strategic Advisor, The Dinner Party

My strong Capricorn vibes are the inspiration for January Eight’s name. In my free time you can catch me:

• Reading fiction + pretty much everything on the internet

• Experimenting in the kitchen (always obsessed w/ veg recipes, currently fixated on Dishoom and the entire works of Yotam Ottolenghi)

• Providing analysis of The Bachelor & British TV that no one asked for.
