About

🌱Once I joined the agency world - I never looked back. I jumped in feet first and built the first sales team for an agency founder. We doubled to more than 80 staff in the process and built a sales engine that freed him to work on his own M&A.Ready for challenge - I started helping other agencies do the same. I’ve seen what works, what falls down, and help agencies build with intention. 📖 I wrote a book called Agency Exits - an actionable book based on the experiences of 7 founders and their scale to sale journey. It's full of gems whether you're building to exit or simply to run the business you want, and not have it run you.As Group COO & Founding Partner at Unusual Group, I help take agencies from scale to sale-ready: whether that’s in 12 months, 5 years, or even if you never want to sell. Because an exit-ready business is one that’s primed to thrive. We're building something truly unique in the agency space.If you:- Do great work but you’re hitting a growth wall- Are way too involved in sales, delivery, or firefighting- Operate with cash flow that’s dependent on a few key people- Need sustainable growth structures that don’t kill your culture- Worry about burnout - for you and your team - Want some clarity on what “exit-ready” actually looks likeThen my aim is simple: to help you build an agency that works for you, and not the other way around.
