Real results from e-commerce growth, local business marketing, and innovation projects
You've built a successful e-commerce business generating over $1M annually, but growth has stalled. You're burning budget on ads that don't convert, struggling to coordinate creative teams, and lacking the strategic marketing leadership needed to break through to 7 figures.
Traditional agencies execute campaigns but don't think strategically about your business. You need a CMO, but can't justify the $200K+ salary for a full-time executive.

I'm Adrian Dorobantu, and my path to becoming a fractional CMO is unconventional. I started as an automotive engineer, working for Delphi and Ford Motor Company in the UK after earning my BEng in Automotive Engineering from the University of Sunderland.
But I always had an entrepreneurial spirit. In 2015, I invested $5,000 in an Amazon FBA course and launched my first e-commerce business. While that venture didn't succeed, it taught me invaluable lessons about online marketing and data-driven strategies.
In early 2019, I founded OneStep Social Ads. By late 2019, I landed my first major client: a premium pearl jewelry e-commerce brand. I launched a chatbot campaign that was so successful, ManyChat wrote a case study about it. That was just the beginning.
I gradually took over their entire paid social, email, and SMS marketing. The results: from $362K in 2019 to $2.8M in 2020 (8.17 ROAS), peaking at $8.33M in 2023 (5.78 ROAS). That's over 6 years of consistent, sustainable growth.
Today, I work exclusively with established e-commerce brands making $500K+ annually who are ready to scale to 7 figures. I bring the strategic thinking of a CMO, the execution skills of a performance marketer, and the innovation mindset of a tech entrepreneur—all at a fraction of the cost of a full-time executive.
