Quick Answers Before We Chat

It’s a focused 30-minute session to understand your goals, growth challenges and current marketing performance.

  • For startups, that might mean clarifying your go-to-market strategy or customer acquisition priorities.
  • For larger organisations, we’ll look at how to optimise your marketing function, strengthen positioning, or accelerate results across teams and channels.

 You’ll leave with immediate, actionable insights. No fluff or hard sell.

Yes, completely free and no obligation.
It’s designed to help you identify the biggest levers for growth and see if there’s a strong strategic fit.
You’ll get clear, practical recommendations whether or not we work together.

  • For startups: founders or co-founders typically join ideally with a team member who owns marketing or revenue.
  • For larger organisations: marketing, commercial, or product leaders usually attend.

 The key is to have decision makers in the room so we can align strategy and priorities from the start.

A quick summary of your current situation: goals, challenges and key metrics (if available).

  • If you’re in early growth, that might be your current funnel and customer insights.
  • If you’re a more established business, we’ll look at existing strategy, performance data and resource gaps.

 No need for slides. Just a clear view of where you are and where you want to be.

You’ll receive a concise summary outlining your biggest growth opportunities and a recommended next step.
Depending on fit and stage, that might be:

  • A Strategy Sprint (for clarity and direction)
  • A Fractional CMO partnership (for ongoing leadership and growth delivery)
  • A Growth Audit (for established teams that need external perspective)

 There’s zero obligation, you’ll walk away with valuable clarity either way.

Typically within 1–2 weeks, depending on your team’s readiness and the chosen engagement model.
We’ll define deliverables, success metrics and cadence upfront so you know exactly what to expect.

Perfect. That’s often where I add the most value.
I don’t replace your team, I empower and upskill them.
That means refining strategy, improving systems and accelerating performance without disrupting what’s already working.

No problem. Many founders and leaders start with a one off Growth Strategy Session or Marketing Audit.
It’s a focused, standalone engagement designed to create clarity, identify quick wins and set direction.
You can decide afterwards if deeper support makes sense.

 I’m based in London and work with clients across the UK, Europe, and globally.
Most engagements are hybrid or remote, but in person strategy sessions can be arranged when needed.
