VP Marketing · Consumer, B2B2C & Lifecycle Growth · Health Tech & Employer Benefits

Annie Furlong

Nearly 20 years in health tech and 10 in employer benefits, focused on the part of the funnel most marketers hand off: getting people from sign-up to actually using the benefit, and back again when they drift. Most recently VP of Growth and Consumer Marketing at Carrum Health, where I led a team of 12 as the company grew from $40M+ to $110M+ ARR and took marketing past registration into activation, care-team conversations and re-engagement. Previously Guild, Cleo and Advisory Board Company, and founder of the B²C Collective.

The whole journey.

From first impression to lasting loyalty

Awareness & Trust

Earn attention and credibility inside crowded employer benefits ecosystems.

Employer benefits are often confusing with no clear sense of how they fit together. At Cleo and Carrum, I built referral pathways and co-marketing with the other vendors in each employer's benefits lineup, including digital campaigns and print materials that showed employees how their benefits connected. At Carrum, I built automated referral campaigns with partners like virtual physical therapy vendors, so a member who needed surgery after PT was routed straight to us. At Guild, that kind of clarity got 54% of ~200K eligible Disney Cast Members to create an account.
