Growth happens faster when teams stop working in silos.

The strongest marketing strategies are built when digital, ecommerce, creative, operations, sales, and customer insights are connected around a shared goal.

In today’s complex marketing landscape, brands need more than strong individual channels. They need cross-functional alignment that turns fragmented efforts into a unified customer experience and measurable business growth.

In this week’s Marketing With Purpose Kit from The Bliss Business Podcast, we’re joined by Sara Whiteleather, Senior Director of Marketing at Batteries Plus.

Sara brings deep experience across digital strategy, growth marketing, ecommerce, and customer engagement, with leadership roles spanning consulting, agency, and brand-side organizations. Sara has held brand leadership roles at Nationwide Insurance and a fintech startup, leading initiatives focused on digital transformation, customer acquisition and business growth. Her agency experience includes executive leadership positions at AMP Agency and DigitasLBi North America, where she led the growth of leading retail, CPG, and consumer banking brands. Throughout her career, she has led record-breaking new business wins, built high-performing teams, and delivered measurable growth for both emerging and established brands.
