🏆 Top 1% of Performance Marketers on Upwork 🏆 💰 Managed over $1m+ in Ad Spend Across Meta & Google 💰 📈 6+ Years Driving Growth and Revenue For eCom Brands Online 🚀 Send me an invite or message, I'll give you a free Loom audit showing exactly how I'd approach your ad account to get it performing at its best. That's my promise. I help eCommerce brands turn ad spend into predictable revenue through Meta Ads and Google Ads. Whether you're scaling a Shopify store, improving ROAS, or trying to make your paid media more profitable, I build campaigns that drive purchases and revenue, not vanity metrics. Paid advertising that performs. I manage eCom campaigns across Meta and Google, from cold traffic prospecting to retargeting. Proper conversion tracking, daily optimisation, and a focus on the metrics that actually matter to your bottom line. Creative strategy that scales. Creative fatigue kills eCommerce campaigns. I test hooks, angles, and formats weekly, UGC-style videos, static ads, carousels, product demos, find what converts, cut what doesn't, and scale the winners. Full-funnel eCommerce campaigns. Awareness, retargeting, conversion, each stage needs different creative and targeting. I build campaigns that move shoppers through your funnel, not just dump traffic at the top. Data-driven optimisation. I track ROAS, CPA, CTR, conversion rates, AOV, MER, and purchase volume. You get clear reporting showing what's working, what's not, and what we're doing about it. HAPPY CLIENTS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "We'd tried and failed with Meta ads before so were initially skeptical about whether the channel was right for us, but Harrison absolutely CRUSHED it. We budgeted 3 months for a return on Meta, but Harrison worked with us lock-step from the start with our strategy and we hit a profitable ROAS literally straight out the gate. I've been hiring on Upwork for 12 years and good talent can be hard to come across. Harrison is your guy. Book a call with him and you won't regret it." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Harrison is an expert when it comes to Meta ads. I cannot recommend him enough to anyone who needs help getting their ads account performing well." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Highly recommend Harrison and his team, they were able to understand our needs and our brand voice quickly to produce great results with efficiency." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Great freelancer, very hard working, knowledgeable and extremely easy to work with."

Hands-on performance marketing consultant with £300M+ in ad spend managed and 11 years building and scaling customer acquisition for VC-backed startups - no agencies, all done by me. ⚡ HOW I DRIVE GROWTH 1️⃣ Every engagement starts with a comprehensive audit: your marketing funnels, campaigns, channels, tracking setup (pixels and SDKs), and creative performance. Most of the time this alone surfaces quick wins that deliver immediate results. 2️⃣ From there, I take those learnings and fix what's broken: redistributing your existing spend to the channels that are actually working and cutting what isn't. No waiting months to see results. 3️⃣ Once the foundations are solid, we build a scaling plan together: new channels to test, creative updates, structured frameworks to grow without wasting budget. 4️⃣ Throughout all of this, measurement is built in from day one: I use MMM, incrementality testing and attribution modelling so you always know exactly which campaigns are working hard for you and which ones are quietly burning money. 5️⃣ And where AI genuinely helps: Smartly for creative scaling, Claude for automated reporting - I implement it, so your team has real-time visibility without the manual effort. ⭐ WHY WORK WITH ME ✅ Most growth marketing consultants are either strong on execution or strong on data - I bring both. I've managed £300M+ in ad spend directly (no agencies, all me) alongside a marketing science background that lets me go deeper than most on what's actually driving results versus wasting budget. ✅ I've spent my career with fast-moving VC-backed startups in London and globally, so I'm used to moving quickly, working without layers, and being accountable for real outcomes. ✅ Everything I do is built to last - I work alongside your team and document properly, so the skills and frameworks stay with you long after the engagement ends. Ready to stop wasting your ad budget? Message me and let's talk about what's possible.

Expert in Strategic Marketing Campaigns and Visual Storytelling designed to drive immediate sales and maximize ROAS. Effective audience engagement through strategic messaging and marketing is crucial for brands. The key to success is developing an innovative approach that appeals to your target market, ensuring your message is consistent across various channels, and coordinating your brand's voice and vision with powerful marketing strategies that increase engagement and foster trust. From content strategies to social campaigns and digital marketing initiatives, every medium—print, physical, or online—should work cohesively to amplify your brand's presence and influence and that is where I come in. Using psychology-backed strategies, I help turn audiences into repeat customers by combining strategy, writing, research, and facilitation. I work with clients to translate their concepts into videos, Ads, pitch decks, growth plans, reports, profiles, frameworks, web content, roadmaps, concept visualizations, and workshops. My approach makes selling your work easier by constructing powerful arguments that resonate with the hearts and minds of your audience. I help clients achieve a better return on their advertising spend through authentic content (like UGC) and the latest proven ad creative frameworks, formats, and trends. I transform brands from invisible to irresistible, and develop and execute high-impact digital advertising campaigns that don't just capture attention—they demand it. At heart, I’m a practical creative who values the efficient use of resources—be it energy, materials, money, or time—and catalyzes change and innovation through empathetic human interaction. Most of all, I roll up my sleeves and get the job done.
