I've spent 15 years proving that systematic digital marketing generates real revenue. For a legal practice, I led the strategy that delivered £7.2M in new annual billings and 40% year-over-year traffic growth. At digital agencies, I led SEO for ASICS, Carphone Warehouse, Hurtigruten and more. For a proptech SaaS, I built the first consistent inbound lead pipeline they'd ever had. I've always built the systems to execute my strategies, whether that was SEO, content, or paid social. But those systems required constant human intervention. They scaled linearly. More work meant more people or more hours. But that doesn't work anymore, so I'm building something different. Over the past year, I've been developing AI-powered marketing automation using Python, LLMs, and custom workflows to handle what used to require entire teams. Data analysis that took days now takes minutes. Content workflows that required constant manual handoffs now run smoothly with minimal intervention. Research that required manual web scraping now happens automatically. I built these systems for my own consulting work. Most marketing leaders understand AI conceptually but can't build the systems themselves. They need to hire specialists, explain their needs, wait for development, then iterate. I write the strategy and code. Most AI developers can build impressive systems but don't understand marketing strategy, customer psychology, or what actually drives revenue. I've spent 15 years learning what works. The combination is rare. Strategic marketing leadership with the technical capability to build AI systems that execute that strategy.
