I'm offering
You waste a lot of time and money attracting people who don't buy.
I help startups build for sustainable growth by focusing on ideal target customers.
Do these sound familiar?
🎯 “Our target customer is everyone, we have so many different types of customers”
🧑🏻💻 “Why are so many people dropping out of the funnel and not buying?”
✍🏻 “Get someone to write about this because its #trending”
You need a target customer-first lifecycle strategy.
Using the framework I’ve developed over the years, I help businesses identify, engage, and convert ideal target customers to bring scaleable growth. I’m based in London, but love collaborating with companies from every corner of the globe!
