Freelance marketing specialist
I help small businesses
improve their online visibility
and generate more enquiries
Practical, senior marketing support without agency overheads. Clear priorities, honest advice and work that focuses on the activity most likely to bring you enquiries.
Sound familiar?
Most small businesses aren't short on effort. They're short on direction.
When you're running the business, marketing tends to happen in the gaps. A bit of social when there's time, a website that hasn't been touched in two years, a few ads switched on and quietly left running. None of it is wrong — it's just never had the chance to add up to a plan.
The result is usually the same: plenty of activity, very little certainty. You can't see which parts are earning their keep, so it's hard to know what to do more of, and even harder to justify spending more.
That's the part I fix first. Before anything gets built or bought, we work out where your enquiries realistically come from and put the effort there instead.
What I hear most from small businesses
- Your website is live, but hardly any of the right people ever see it
- Visitors arrive, look around and leave without getting in touch
- Marketing happens in bursts whenever there's a quiet week
- You can't tell which activity is actually bringing in work
- You're spending on ads or social without knowing the return
- Marketing is the job that always slips to the bottom of the list

Why work with me
A marketing partner, not another supplier
I'm Dean, a freelance marketing specialist. I spend my time helping smaller businesses get more from their marketing — clearer priorities, better visibility and a steadier flow of enquiries.
Six years, plenty of variety
Six years planning and delivering marketing across search, paid media, social and email — for businesses of very different shapes and sizes.
Agency-trained
Most of that time has been agency-side, working across a wide range of industries. That means I've seen what works in a lot of different markets, not just one.
You deal with me directly
No account managers, no handovers to juniors. The person you speak to is the person doing the work.
Best suited to smaller businesses
I work best with owner-led businesses that want focused, affordable support rather than a full agency retainer.
