Your CPA jumps 30% overnight.
Two big POs hit.
Shopify payout doesn't cover the inventory bill.
ROAS dips below 2:1.
Competitor tweets "We hit 40% percent of revenue from email and SMS!".
All on a Tuesday morning.
Gut punch.
Something....has to give.
Thankfully your customers will do all the giving you need.
If they're simply seduced into whipping out that sweet card more often.
For bigger carts.
For years.
But you already tried hiring for help with email and they just didn't care like you do.
Chasing them down only to get cookie-cutter templates, lifeless AI copy and Canva design.
But generic doesn't build real brands.
Emotional connection does.
Personality and stories.
Chatting like a childhood buddy that lives next door.
Every word crafted like the founder wrote it at dawn over coffee (not an intern with a swipe file).
Imagine...
Strategy, creative, segmentation, deliverability, all humming quietly in the background.
Jaw-droppingly stunning emails are going out, reeling in huge sales.
Email and SMS revenue climbs past 35%.
Real metrics like margins, ROAS, LTV, CAC, and AOV all widening (not just vanity opens or clicks.).
Your entire back end, handled.
No briefing, micromanaging or chasing.
Now you can stay in product/ops to put out fires and push the big needle-movers.
An extra 10 hours a week appear in your calendar so you can have a life, while topline still grows.
This is not a pipe dream with me on your team.
However, as a Klaviyo Master, Partner and well over $20 million generated for clients to date, I already have a loyal stable of awesome clients - so naturally my schedule is very nearly full.
But, if we get along and I'm 100% sure I can help your unique brand, then you will be making a LOT of money with my help.
So if you're looking for someone to help you scale with Klaviyo email marketing, click the green "Invite To Job" or white "Hire Now" button at the top right of this page.
Looking forward to discussing your project :)

PS: Here's what clients have said about my email marketing services on Upwork:
- “It was an awesome ROI and we were able to scale much, much more because of that added revenue.”
- “The margins before we started working with you was…18% and recently it was 24%…and that’s net margin.”
- “He will make you far more money than you spend with him so you’d be a dummy to not work with him."
- “We’ve tried other email marketers before and Wilding is by far the best we’ve ever tried.”

Professionally written sales copy is the key to boosting engagement, driving response, and increasing sales. I know this because I’m a former affiliate marketer and info-product owner. During my time as an online entrepreneur I learnt how to write content and copy that captivates and converts. These skills gave me the ability to earn 10s of thousands of dollars online.
I now help business owners and entrepreneurs with their own content needs. To get a feel for my style, take a look at the portfolio pieces below. You can also visit alastairwalton.com for more examples of my work.

I don't optimise ads for platform metrics. I optimise for profit and growth.
If you're spending on Meta and Google and the in-platform ROAS looks "fine" but your MER, new-customer acquisition, or cash flow says otherwise, that gap is exactly what I fix.
I'm an ecommerce paid media strategist focused on spend efficiency and scalable profitability. Across agency, in-house, and consulting work I've helped 30+ ecommerce brands grow by building paid media systems that improve MER and blended ROAS, CAC-to-LTV, payback periods, and overall contribution, so more of every dollar you spend actually reaches the bottom line.
A snapshot of the kind of work I do: on one DTC account I managed up to $550k/month in spend at a 2.95 aMER (new-customer revenue over blended spend) while holding 24% profit contribution, scaling on genuine new-customer acquisition rather than a blended number propped up by returning buyers.
How I work:
- Full-funnel strategy across Meta and Google, built around new-customer efficiency, not vanity ROAS
- Structured creative testing to find winning angles and keep scaling without fatigue
- Clean measurement and attribution (server-side tracking, blended MER, post-purchase surveys) so decisions are based on what's really driving revenue, not what the platform claims
- Clear reporting that tells you what moved, what didn't, and what happens next
I work best with DTC and ecommerce brands ready to scale spend profitably, and founders who care about contribution margin, not just a dashboard number.
If that sounds like what you need, send me a message or start with a paid media audit, and I'll show you where the profit is leaking and how I'd fix it.
