MATHEW TAMIN

I cut a solar company's cost per lead from $400 to $70 in four months.

The marketing channels I ran contributed more than $3M in revenue over six months. Then I built an AI platform solo and shipped it to the App Store. I do this for businesses spending on growth and not getting it back.

The Problem

Most companies I talk to have the same three problems:

What I Do

I lead growth strategy. Channels, spend, funnel, attribution — I'm accountable for the number, not for delivering a deck.

I build the content engine and produce it myself. 15 years of directing, shooting, editing, and color grading. You don't hire a strategist and then go hire a production company.

I implement AI systems that survive contact with reality. I built a full platform with them. I know what breaks.

Where this has worked.

The results below were achieved between 2021 and 2025 in employee leadership roles.

RESIDENTIAL SOLAR INSTALLER
Marketing Director

The situation: lead costs were running near $400 with no stable attribution model in place.

Areas under my leadership: paid acquisition and the core content and CRM stack — video, podcast, YouTube, LinkedIn, and HubSpot workflows — within the in-house team.

Results
  • Cost per lead: ~$400 → ~$70, an 82% reduction in four months
  • The marketing channels under my responsibility contributed more than $3M in revenue in under six months

Cheaper leads are easy to buy. Cheaper leads that still close are the whole job.

Residential solar is widely recognized as one of the highest customer-acquisition-cost categories in U.S. consumer marketing. The operating principles transfer even when the market doesn't.

MULTI-COMPANY FOOD DISTRIBUTION GROUP
Ecommerce Manager

The scope: ecommerce and marketing leadership within a company group generating more than $250M annually across five sister companies, including a $50M subsidiary.

Areas under my leadership: built the primary ecommerce site, managed a 5,000+ SKU catalog including pricing, descriptions, and merchandising, ran SEO and organic traffic across five properties, coordinated vendor alignment, and set marketing strategy for the ecommerce function.

Result

A rebuilt storefront and a catalog that could actually be found, priced, and bought — across a portfolio most teams would need a department to run.

Five thousand SKUs is not a landing page.

PRAYLUM
Solo Founder

The scope: built Praylum as a solo founder — the AI platform, the live-streaming stack, Stripe payments, and an App Store-approved native iOS app.

Why it matters here: I have shipped production AI software with real users on it. I know what works under load and what collapses.

Results shown were achieved in employee leadership roles at the organizations described. Outcomes reflect those markets, budgets, and conditions. Individual results vary, and past performance does not guarantee future outcomes.
