Anthony Neal Macri is a growth strategist, creative director, and user-acquisition lead who has spent the past decade and a half helping startups and consumer brands stop “marketing loudly” and start scaling intentionally. He blends performance marketing with narrative craft — part data scientist, part storyteller, part “I can fix that funnel” therapist. Before advising founders, he cut his teeth building acquisition engines inside high-pressure, high-competition verticals where every click had to justify its existence. His campaigns have helped turn early-stage products into seven-figure revenue engines, and he has led teams across paid growth, lifecycle, retention, conversion optimisation, and brand positioning — often at the same time, because startups don’t believe in neat job descriptions. In parallel with his tech and growth work, Macri serves as Creative & Marketing Director for Calabria Food Fest, a global-audience cultural festival in Southern Italy that pairs food, entertainment, and celebrity partnerships with tourism development. He oversees creative identity, international positioning, brand storytelling, and digital promotion — essentially: making sure the world realises Calabria is not just a location on a map, but a lifestyle with good espresso. He’s known for mixing strategy with humour (and occasionally espresso-fuelled honesty). Journalists tap him for commentary on what really drives user behaviour, why “growth hacking” died the day privacy laws woke up, and how brands can build audiences without surrendering their dignity to clickbait. When he isn’t planning acquisition funnels or festival run-of-show campaigns, he mentors early-stage founders and doomscrolls new ad platforms so you don’t have to.

A few things I know for sure: - There's infinitely more things I have no idea about than I do --and therein lies the wisdom of two eyes to look, two ears listen, only one mouth to speak. - If you want to get people to move, there's no vehicle on earth more powerful than culture; no insight more valuable than the "why" behind and before it pops. - A blessing of being a good strategist is my obsession with the truth: Find it, tell it, live it, enable it. Though not always convenient, this integrity ensures I'm thriving. Where do I see myself in 5 years? - If you wanna make God laugh, tell Him about your plans. I simply pray for an ever increasing sphere of influence that inspires and uplifts those around me and makes the world a little bit better than it otherwise would have been.

Curiosity is my superpower; I use it to build, lead, and innovate. Whether it’s developing ethical AI solutions, leading teams, or teaching others how to leverage AI effectively, I bring a curious twist to every conversation. If you love tech, big ideas, and a little controlled chaos, you’re in the right place. What are you missing by not being curious? Curiosity is how you stay ahead and turn uncertainty into opportunity and clarity. Stepping away from my last startup allowed me to explore Web3, AI, and what it takes to scale with impact. That’s when I realized that curiosity is one of the most undervalued growth strategies in business. AI, Web3, scaling, and community-building will not succeed without leaders who ask the right questions before rushing to answers. The most significant breakthroughs don’t come from chasing trends. They come from pausing long enough to ask a better question. I help entrepreneurs, founders, and leaders turn curiosity into their competitive edge. I leverage AI, strategy, and culture to build products and services that are not only scalable but also ethical and inclusive. Through Curiosity as a Service, I can help you: Build ethical AI products your customers trust, and your competitors can’t replicate. Integrate AI without losing trust or differentiation. Leverage AI for new revenue, not just efficiency. I can help you break out of survival mode and unlock sustainable growth using curiosity, AI-driven insights, and strategic decision-making. Most of my clients see a 25% revenue increase within 90 days. Are you curious about what smarter strategy and AI could do for you?
