What I do? Marketing & Growth consulting, without the fluff. 🙌

Marketing like it should be done: Based on your customer insights, data, process and a sprinkle of magic 🧙‍♂️.

I help companies…

improve their organic traffic through SEO,
boost ROI of paid campaigns like FB/IG, Google Ads & LinkedIn,
expand into new growth channels,
optimise landing pages to drive conversion,
build growth loops for sustainable growth and
teach growth team methodologies so they can do it themselves

If you are a start-up or established company looking for help to grow your business, get in touch!

over 2 years at Truly Experiences as their Head of Growth
Mentoring more than 50 companies at 500 Startups‘ seed and pre-Series A accelerator in London, Moscow, Kuwait, Riyadh and Mexico City
Freelance work for companies such as JustWears, Pizza Express, FutureFinance, HonestBrew, PawSquad, Fy!, IrishPure and many more

What else?

I hold a masters degree in E-Marketing & Social Media (yes, that exists! 😄) and attended the Reforge Growth Series in 2017 (a highly selective growth programme led by Brian Balfour & Andrew Chen).

I’ve also spoken at several growth & marketing conferences (e.g. Growth Hacking World Forum London ’16, Marketing Week London ’17, Measurecamp London ’18, AllThingsData Israel ’18).

Working with me – how does it work?

Just get in touch via email and let me know what challenges you’re looking to get help with. After initial emails, we’ll have a 30 mins phone/video call to see if there’s a mutual fit.

After that, my approach depends on the project and how you’d like to work with me.

Please note: I’m a digital nomad (travelling & working at the same time), so meeting in person is usually not possible. I don’t work full time either (but with German efficiency). I work based on time-, project- or success-based remuneration.
