I’m Not a Guru. I Grow Businesses.

I didn’t start in a seminar room. I started at sea.

At sixteen, I ran away to sea and spent the next eight years in the Royal Navy.

That’s where I learned the stuff that actually matters:

• Leadership (not “influencing energy”)
• Discipline (not “morning routines for millionaires”)
• Systems (because chaos gets people hurt. In business, chaos just costs you money.)

It gave me a foundation I’ve used ever since: do the work, keep it simple, and get results.

Then I spent the next 30+ years growing businesses — properly.

My last three roles were all about business development and market share. Not theory. Not “personal branding.” Real growth, in real companies, with real numbers attached.

Here’s what that looks like in plain English:

£240k to £1.5m: turning a home business into a global operation

At Glass Polish Ltd, I took a successful glass repair process and turned it into a serious business operating across three continents.

Over five years we grew turnover by 600% — from a two-person home setup to a recognised leader in the industry, with operations in over thirteen countries.

Not because we “went viral.” Because we:

• built a clear offer
• targeted the right customers
• followed up properly
• delivered results
• and put proper standards in place (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001)

That’s the boring stuff gurus skip. It’s also the stuff that makes you money.

Managing takeovers, relocations, and still growing

At Flexipads Ltd, I was brought in to manage a competitor takeover and merge two businesses into one location — staff, stock, systems, catalogues, databases, the lot.

The plan allowed for turnover to drop. We increased it by 10% while relocating.

Again: not magic. Just planning, execution, and not kidding ourselves.

Building tendering systems and adding £50k/month

At Revitaglaze Ltd, I helped push the business into new sectors and set up tendering processes for multi‑million‑pound contracts — while increasing turnover by £50,000 per month.

That’s not “mindset.” That’s pipeline, positioning, and process.

I’m qualified — but I don’t hide behind certificates.

Yes, I’ve got qualifications:

• NEBS Supervisory Management
• RSA 1, 2 & 3
• Hypnosis/NLP Coach
• Qualified Life Coach
• Qualified Business Coach

But I don’t lead with that because qualifications don’t pay your wages.

Results do.

I’m a marketer who actually understands costs.

I’ve built and managed Google Ads accounts properly — including competitor analysis, keyword strategy, and multi-ad testing.

I’ve taken accounts from an average of £6 per click down to £2.40 per click.

I’ve done SEO the way it’s meant to be done: content, links, structure, consistency — and ranked sites to page one without throwing money at it.

And I’ve managed national accounts, grown them, and kept them — because “getting a lead” is the easy bit. Keeping a customer is where the profit lives.

So what do I actually do now?

I help business owners who are sick of guessing.

The ones who are good at what they do — but their marketing is patchy, their follow-up is inconsistent, and they’re working too hard for the profit they’re taking home.

If that’s you, we’ll fix the fundamentals:

• your offer (so people understand it and want it)
• your lead generation (so it’s predictable)
• your follow-up (so you stop leaking money)
• your sales process (so you close more without being pushy)
• and your systems (so the business doesn’t collapse when you get busy)

No guru nonsense. No fluff. Just practical steps and measurable outcomes.

If you want hype, keep scrolling.

If you want someone who’ll tell you the truth, build the plan, and hold you to it — you’ll probably like working with me.

And if you don’t?

That’s fine too. Life’s short. I’m not here to convince people who don’t want to do the work.

I've done this for multi-million pound companies and home-based startups. 

Now, let me look under the hood of yours.
