Digital Growth Strategist: embedded, hands-on growth lead for SMEs, providing the strategy, execution, and commercial insight you’d expect from a CMO or Head of Marketing, without the full-time cost.
Working on a structured monthly retainer, I take a holistic, top-down view of your business and focus effort where it will create the greatest commercial impact.
SEO is usually the primary growth lever – because it sits at the intersection of website performance, content, demand capture, and buyer intent. From that foundation, I prioritise and sequence activity to remove the most meaningful growth constraints first.
Here, SEO refers to modern organic visibility: traditional search, AI-driven results such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, visibility in Google Maps and Knowledge Panels, and discovery across platforms like LinkedIn and YouTube.
Depending on your stage and constraints, work may include:
– Strategic marketing planning and business development
– High-performance web design, build, and optimisation
– Website stability, performance & technical reliability
– SEO-led organic growth (structure, content & demand capture)
– CRM setup, research, sales intelligence, enablement & outreach
– Tools to measure, analyse & report on business & web data
– Integrating AI capabilities into your existing systems
– Streamlining ops and marketing with AI workflows and triggers
– Building AI agents and tools to extend reach and engagement
Not everything runs at once.
Each month, the focus is on the one or two priorities most likely to move the business forward. Once those constraints are addressed, attention shifts to the next – allowing progress across multiple areas without spreading effort thin or inflating cost.
Larger initiatives, such as full website builds or major rebuilds, are always scoped and priced separately.
For smaller businesses, I implement changes directly.
For more established businesses, I set strategy and guide internal marketers and external partners, or temporarily support newly appointed Heads of Marketing to do the same.
Either way, you’re not managing tasks – you’re getting ownership and momentum.
Reactive fixes and technical maintenance are handled within agreed priorities, not as an always-on support queue.
I only take on work where I believe I can add meaningful commercial value and deliver a clear return on your investment.
Remote-first, with local support when needed – I work with a limited number of clients to ensure focus, measurable results, and long-term success.
The goal: steady, sustainable growth – not busywork.
