Take your new business from ad-hoc to intentional.
Strategic advice and practical support to help you build a new business ecosystem with direction and clarity, that delivers long term growth.
New business is critical to your agency’s success, but with so much competing for your attention, it’s easy for it to get sidelined or feel overwhelming when you do tackle it.
Success isn’t about quick or temporary fixes, but creating a virtuous circle of growth that builds momentum over time. We’ll build a manageable ecosystem from the right foundations to break free from start/stop cycles and identify and attract the right opportunities.
And with the right strategy, you can make smarter decisions about where to invest your time, budget, and resources.
Whether you’re formalising your approach or looking for a reset, we’ll identify what’s working, what’s not, and where to focus.
If new business feels like wrangling an octopus into a string bag, I’ll help you untangle the knots and move forward with purpose.
Where do you want to start?

I’ve spent my career in new business and marketing, in and around the creative industries - in agencies, in-house, in creative recruitment, at new business agencies, and at industry intermediary Oystercatchers - giving me a comprehensive view of agency new business.
I’ve seen both the universal and unique challenges that agencies face, in particular with positioning to the market, building sustainable new business programmes and having the right team with the right remit in place.
I bring broad industry knowledge, strategic thinking, and creative problem-solving skills to enable you to create and develop a new business programme that takes you from ad hoc to intentional, and gives you the momentum to build a virtuous circle of sustainable growth.
