Be You. We’ll Handle the Rest.
“Not all those who wander are lost.” — J.R.R. Tolkien
Like all great odysseys, ours began by accident—an accident that sparked a small idea, which quickly grew into a powerful conviction. What if we could blend artificial intelligence with human creativity to push beyond the traditional limits of marketing?
At Broken Glass Ceiling Marketing, we believe your time is too valuable to be spent on draining, repetitive tasks that keep you from what you do best.
Founder Gillian Utesch knows this struggle all too well. With big ideas and boundless creativity, she launched her business—only to find herself drowning in data mining, cold outreach, and content churn.
Rather than pushing through tasks she didn’t love, Gillian saw an opportunity for something better. That idea became a movement.
Broken Glass Ceiling Marketing was born: a fusion of cutting-edge AI and genuine human connection to help entrepreneurs grow with authenticity, efficiency, and ease.
Because you’re at your best in your zone of genius.
Because your voice, values, and vision matter.
Because marketing should sound like you.
We believe:
AI is a tool to amplify, not replace, your humanity.
Every business deserves tools that make growth easier.
Authenticity is key to sustainable success.
Forget B2B or B2C—marketing is H2H: Human to Human.
We help real people build real relationships. That’s our focus.
At Broken Glass Ceiling Marketing, we handle the grind so you don’t have to. Our services are designed to save you time and boost your impact:
AI-Driven Lead Generation – Target and qualify your ideal clients with precision.
Custom Content Creation – Craft compelling, on-brand messaging that resonates.
LinkedIn Engagement – Build genuine professional relationships at scale.
Our mission is simple: help you lead, create, and connect—without burning out.
This isn’t just about marketing.
It’s about building a community, not just a client list.
Welcome. ❤️
MEET THE TEAM
Gillian Utesch
Gillian’s story will sound painfully familiar to many successful entrepreneurs. She spent hours each week cultivating brand ambassadors and expanding her customer base, she set ambitious growth targets and went after them with unwavering passion. In the beginning, the fast-paced energy was exhilarating as she engaged with clients and prospects, receiving positive feedback that only fueled her enthusiasm to push for MORE! However, the relentless grind eventually took its toll. Gillian’s energy waned, leading to feelings of anxiety and stress about the future of her brand. This new reality tempered her optimism as project timelines started to stretch and her competitive edge dulled. She learned firsthand that a tired version of herself is not her best. Reflecting on her father’s advice—‘Don’t fight the ocean; learn to move with it’—she realized the importance of adaptation and letting go of outdated ideas. Gillian comes from the ‘lost and found’ marketer bin. At the forth grade career fair she didn’t choose Marketing as her field, life chose it for her. Twenty years later (while still 29 years-old!) She loves chasing new ideas and reinventing better, smarter, cooler ways to do old things. Gillian lives in Raleigh, NC
