About
Meet Sophie Zollmann—farmer’s daughter, poker player, marketing expert, and fighter for fiercely independent healthcare, legal and financial service providers.
I’ve spent 25 years in digital marketing, and nothing fires me up more than watching independent healthcare practices, law firms, and financial advisors compete against corporate consolidation and win without selling their souls to private equity.
I believe your independence is your competitive advantage, not your liability.
That’s why I built FMD Strategic Partners – to give you enterprise-level marketing strategy and execution so you can fight back and stay family-owned, employee-owned, and free.
I see far too many professionals waste a shit ton of money on marketing that doesn’t work. They hire agencies that don’t understand their business, try tactics without strategy. It’s only gambling if you’re guessing, and that’s where the complete fractional marketing department at FMD Strategic Partners comes in.
As a poker player, I know marketing without strategy is just expensive guessing.
I don’t do cookie-cutter, best-practices bullshit because I’ve seen what happens when independent practices try that. They waste six figures and start thinking about throwing in the towel on the whole independence fight.
FMD is a complete fractional marketing department – strategy, leadership, execution, and specialists – built specifically for professional services firms fighting to stay independent.
We use data-driven optimization designed for your actual business, not theoretical garbage.
We dig into your market, your competitors, what you’re up against, and build marketing that helps you compete without selling your soul – customized for healthcare, legal, or financial services.
Our goal is to help every client build marketing systems that actually work so they can compete against corporate-backed competitors, stay fiercely independent, and build a legacy they can pass down.
