Chris Orzechowski

CEO/Founder; fractional CMO

Chris Orzechowski's journey from the wrestling mats of Rutgers University to becoming one of the world's highest-paid copywriters is nothing short of remarkable. As a Division 1 wrestler, Chris’s tenacity has served him throughout his life in the diverse roles he undertook — from public school teacher to bartender, to bouncer down the Jersey Shore. Ironically almost failing his freshman college writing course, Chris's prowess with words has positioned him as one of the most sought-after experts in copywriting, marketing and brand growth today.

With over a decade in the marketing industry, Chris has worked with over 200 clients, trained 5,000 students through his courses, and has been instrumental in generating over $120 million in sales for his clients. His portfolio boasts collaborations with high-profile brands such as Carnivore Snax, Perennial Pastures Ranch, The Hustle, Gold Medal Wine Club, Terrasoul Superfoods, and Factor 75. Moreover, industry giants like Ryan Serhant, Jeff Walker, NeuroGym's John Assaraf, and Robert Kiyosaki of "Rich Dad Poor Dad" have sought his marketing expertise.

Chris's unique perspective on e-commerce marketing is helping brands of today become 100 Year Brands of tomorrow. He's a staunch advocate for using plain text emails, a contrarian view in an industry that often prioritizes design. His belief in direct response marketing for physical product brands has revolutionized strategies for many businesses. As a fractional Chief Marketing Officer, the founder of the 100 Year Brand, and author of “The M.O.A.T. — Scale your ecommerce brand to 8-figures (and beyond) without going insane or going broke,” Chris is on a mission to build the next generation of iconic, century-long American brands. He has been featured in Forbes and Business Insider, and many podcasts.
