    🚀 More Leads. More Sales. More Growth. If you're tired of marketing that burns cash but doesn’t drive real sales, you’re in the right place. I specialise in high-impact lead generation, paid ads, and sales automation—helping businesses attract high-quality leads, convert them into paying customers, and scale revenue predictably. I've managed millions in ad spend, built customer acquisition systems from scratch, and worked with 100+ businesses across multiple industries. But here’s what makes me different: 👉 I don’t just run ads—I fix your entire lead generation system. Most businesses lose money because they run random ads without a strategy. I take a full-funnel approach, making sure your marketing, sales process, and automation work together to drive ROI. 👉 I work with businesses that are ready to grow. I don’t do “hope marketing.” If you’re an established business and can invest into your marketing without betting the farm, I can help you turn paid ads into a predictable customer acquisition engine. 👉 I don’t waste time on vanity metrics—I focus on business KPIs. Forget “click-through rates” and “ad impressions.” I track real numbers like: ✅ Cost per acquisition (CPA) – What does it cost to acquire a customer? ✅ Return on ad spend (ROAS) – Are you making more than you’re spending? ✅ Sales funnel conversion rates – Where are leads dropping off? 📌 What I Do Best (My Expertise) ✅ Paid Advertising – Facebook, Instagram, Google, YouTube, TikTok, Twitter (X). ✅ Lead Generation Strategy – Turning cold leads into sales-ready prospects. ✅ Sales Funnel Optimisation – Landing pages, lead qualification, email nurture sequences, CRM automation. ✅ CRM & Automation – Building systems with GoHighLevel, Make.com, Zappier, ActiveCampaign, etc. ✅ Copywriting – Ads, landing pages, sales emails that actually convert. ✅ Growth Hacking & Data-Driven Scaling – Maximising revenue with smarter marketing decisions. 🚀 Who I Work With ✅ B2C service businesses ✅ High-ticket B2C products ✅ B2B service providers 🔧 Tools & Platforms I Generally Use ✔️ Facebook & Instagram Ads, Google Ads, YouTube Ads, TikTok Ads, Twitter Ads ✔️ GoHighLevel, ActiveCampaign, Klaviyo, Omnisend, Make.com, Zappier, Mailchimp, etc. ✔️ WordPress, ClickFunnels, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Google Merchant Center. ✔ ️ Any marktech / softwares you use, I learn them FAST. 📈 Why Clients Choose Me Over Other “Marketers” ❌ They run ads & hope for the best. → ✅ I engineer complete lead generation systems. ❌ They flood you with vanity metric reports. → ✅ I focus on revenue, ROI & real results. ❌ They treat sales & marketing as separate. → ✅ I integrate both for maximum conversions. ❌ They “test” for months. → ✅ I execute, optimise fast & scale what works. I understand marketing beyond just ad clicks and impressions—I know how to align paid traffic, sales processes, and automation to create a predictable, profitable customer acquisition machine. 🔹 Ready to Fix Your Lead Generation & Scale Profitably?
