Sense & Forum® is a no-nonsense community-led marketing agency
Reach that doesn’t depend on an algorithm’s mood. We build the system, then run it with you: senior marketing leadership across launch, go-to-market and growth, alongside community strategy — fractional by design, so nothing (and no one) gets missed.
Four ways to build with intention
We design community-led growth systems, then step in as senior marketing leadership to run them. End to end, with confidence.
Audit and Redesign
We take a close look at your existing programme, community or event, then build on what's there.
Fractional CMO
Ongoing, embedded support as your fractional CMO, and/or running your programme or community.
Build From Scratch
A new community, programme or event, built by design from day one.
Launch Partner
Fractional CMO work for startups and scale-ups launching or entering a new market.
Founders, teams and movements ready to lead with clarity.
Ongoing work or a single event: we work both ways.
Most engagement gaps aren’t a content issue
A quiet channel, a fading list, a workshop that fills once and never comes back: most organisations reach for more posts, more emails, more reminders. What’s actually missing is the design: specifically, who the format quietly excludes. That’s the inclusion lens we bring to every engagement, built on the Delia Model™, the methodology founder Serena Kara Gasparini created: we notice what’s easy to miss, and build it into the redesign.
How we do it
Every engagement runs through Serena Kara Gasparini’s DELIA Model™, the methodology behind how Sense & Forum designs programmes, communities and growth systems.
Audit and Review
What's under the hood: where the gaps are, and who isn't in the room.
Design
Build the architecture around your community and your business.
Implement
Put it into practice: in the programme, in the room, in the rhythm.
Prove It and Review It
Pilot, measure, report the return, then review what's next.
