Turning Marketing into Predictable, Measurable Growth

Hi, I’m Ben Coffee. It’s nice to see you here!

Results-driven systems thinker. Builder of growth systems. Team leader and champion of transformation. I love to explore puzzles.

  • Marketing leader with 15+ years of experience driving demand generation, operations, and growth strategy.

  • My career spans both enterprise-scale transformations, leading global teams, building executive-trusted reporting systems, and aligning sales and marketing.

  • 0→1 builder roles, where I’ve designed the tech stacks, attribution models, and demand engines that make growth predictable from the ground up.

Revenue Dimensions is my personal portfolio and a window into how I think, lead, and create. If you’re here to explore, partner, hire, collaborate, or just peek behind the curtain, you’re in the right place.

Explore my work through two perspectives:

Who I Am

I’m a marketing operations and analytics leader with 15+ years of experience driving growth and alignment at companies like Cisco, LiveRamp, and DataSift.

My career began in sales and evolved through operations, demand generation, and analytics, giving me a complete view of the go-to-market engine.

Today, I focus on building high-performing teams and marketing systems that turn complexity into clarity.

What I Believe

I believe the best marketing is simple, clear, and connected to the business.

When sales and marketing pull in the same direction, everything moves faster.

Data matters, but only if it’s trusted and used to make better decisions. And behind every system or process are people, their creativity, their drive, and their need for clarity.

My role is to create the conditions where those people and systems work together to deliver real results.

Leadership Style

My leadership philosophy blends structure and empathy.

I set clear expectations, build systems that empower people, and encourage experimentation without fear.

I believe the best teams are both accountable and creative, grounded in rigorous analytics but free to explore new ideas.

Above all, I lead with curiosity, aiming to create an environment where people can excel individually while achieving more together.

Know No Nonsense News

I’ve created a series of satirical short videos about some of my favorite topics coming up in the news today.

I publish these on Youtube and I’d love to hear which one is your favorite. Get ready for some silliness: Know No Nonsense News

Dr. Coffee’s Caffeinated Soap

Inspired by Dr. Bronner’s Pure Castile Soap, a bottle that can captivate one’s attention with ridiculousness for minutes on end.

But why not put caffeine in soap? Does it have medical or health benefits? Who knows!

I’m putting this million dollar idea out there for anyone willing to put it into production.
