how the work runs

Measure, fix, prove

step 01

Measure what is happening

Before anything changes, the tracking has to be trustworthy. That means checking conversions, filtering junk traffic, and agreeing which numbers actually matter to the business.

step 02

Fix the biggest leak first

Not everything at once. The audit ranks problems by what they cost you, and the work starts at the top of that list — whether it is wasted ad spend, a broken checkout step or pages nobody can find.

step 03

Prove it moved

Every change gets a before-and-after in your own reporting. If something did not work, you hear that too — that is the point of measuring properly.

common questions

Straight answers

What does a digital marketing consultant actually do?

The job is to find where a business loses money online, and fix it. In practice that means checking the measurement is honest, then working on the channels that bring people in — search, paid ads, email — and the pages that turn visitors into customers.

Do I have to buy all six services?

No. Most projects start with one channel or a single audit. Analytics usually comes first, because without accurate tracking there is no way to tell whether anything else worked.

What is AI search optimisation?

It is the work of making a site easy for AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews to read, understand and cite. It overlaps with technical SEO, but rewards clear structure, strong entity signals, and mentions on the sources those systems already trust. More on AI search optimisation.

Do you work with businesses in Oxford and Oxfordshire?

Yes. The consultancy is based in Oxfordshire, so meeting in person in Oxford or nearby is straightforward. Most work is done remotely though, and clients are spread across the UK — location makes very little difference to how a project runs.

What size of business do you work with?

Small and mid-sized businesses, charities and in-house marketing teams that need senior help without hiring a full agency. Past work has ranged from single-founder sites to blue-chip brands.

How does a project start?

With a short call about what you sell and what is not working. If there is a useful piece of work, you get a written scope and a fixed price for it before anything begins.
