I'm an independent digital marketing consultant with over 20 years of experience across in-house marketing roles, agency-side strategy, and long-term freelance engagements. Previous in-house experience includes Edrington Group and Energy Saving Trust; current clients are primarily UK-based SMEs and established brands.

My methodology is straightforward: audit what exists, fix the fundamentals, then scale what the data supports. I don't recommend channels for their own sake — only where the commercial case is clear and measurable.

Clients come to me when they need someone who sees across SEO, paid search, paid social, and analytics simultaneously — and who can give a straight answer on where their budget is best placed.

How I work

Audit. Fix. Scale.

Step 01

Audit & diagnose

Every engagement starts with an honest assessment — traffic, spend, attribution, and conversion. No assumptions, no generic recommendations.

Step 02

Fix the foundations

Tracking gaps, structural account issues, and technical blockers addressed first. Scaling broken campaigns wastes budget faster.

Step 03

Build & test

Campaigns, content, and dashboards built to a clear brief. Ongoing testing with a bias for commercial outcomes — ROAS, CAC, and CLV over vanity metrics.

Step 04

Report & iterate

Clear reporting against agreed KPIs. Strategy adapts as the data evolves. What's working, what isn't, and what's next — every month.

Still have questions?
I work primarily with UK-based SMEs and established brands across ecommerce, hospitality, retail, professional services, and food & drink. Most clients have existing digital marketing activity they want to improve or scale.
Most engagements start with a scoped audit or project, then move to a monthly retainer for ongoing management. I also take on one-off advisory sessions and short-term agency overflow work.
Google Ads (Search, Shopping, Performance Max, Display) and Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram), including full campaign setup, restructuring, and ongoing optimisation.
Yes — and working across both channels simultaneously is one of the main advantages of working with an independent consultant. I align keyword strategy, budgets, and reporting across SEO and paid search to avoid duplication and find the most efficient route to growth.
Via Looker Studio dashboards pulling live data from GA4, Google Ads, Meta, and other platforms. Reporting is built around the metrics that matter — ROAS, CAC, CLV, and conversion volume — not impressions or reach.
