Stop drifting.
Find focus.
And drive growth.

If your marketing feels off but you can’t put your finger on why, I can help.

Hello, I’m Michael.

I’m a commercially focused brand and marketing consultant.

I work with CEOs, CMOs, and marketing teams to clear the fog, identify opportunities, and build a strategy that delivers results.

As a critical friend, I bring a fresh perspective, sharpen your focus, and set realistic, measurable objectives.

Whether you need a one-off solution or ongoing support, I’m here to refine strategies, mentor teams, and ensure you see results.

Making an impact where it matters most.

  • £1m in new monthly deposits—delivered in three months for a retail bank.

  • 200+ employees inspired by a vision and mission that reflects their institution’s purpose.

  • A $100bn+ global asset manager now communicates its complex affiliate structure with clarity and confidence.

  • A £17m financial planning business rebranded and armed with a clear, actionable marketing strategy.

Across industries, I bring marketing clarity, focus, and results.

How to work with me.

  • Book a call to pinpoint the problem together. Explore what’s nagging at you.

  • Get a review of your current activity. Uncover what’s working—and what’s not.
