Iโ€™m an experienced freelancer and digital marketer, serving as a fractional digital marketer at Berkeley Windsor since 2016. I combine deep channel expertiseโ€”SEO (technical, on-page, off-page), content, CRO, Google Ads, and Metaโ€”with a strong business lens. Iโ€™m the founder and CEO of several companies and hold an MBA from the Australian Institute of Business, so my strategies are built to move real commercial metrics, not just vanity KPIs. Iโ€™m new to Upwork, but certainly not new to freelance or fractional work. For years Iโ€™ve partnered with founders and teams to design strategy, implement clean tracking (GA4/GTM), run disciplined tests, and scale only what hits CAC/ROAS targets. Whether you need a hands-on operator, a strategic growth lead, or both, I plug in fast, align on goals, and deliver measurable outcomes. If youโ€™re looking for a practitioner who understands both the numbers and the narrativeโ€”and can turn marketing into predictable growthโ€”Iโ€™d love to connect.

Ernie here. Based in Perth, running an AI native paid media studio. Frank, the AI surveillance layer I built, watches every account 24 hours a day. The team executes. I run strategy. The cycle is faster, tighter, and catches things weekly cycles miss. I do not do SEO, social media management, content marketing, or 30 minute discovery calls. I do run Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, Reddit, server-side tracking, GA4, GTM, Looker Studio, landing pages, and CRO.

The percentage scales down as the account grows. The smaller the budget, the higher the percentage, because smaller accounts still need the same brain behind them. The bigger the budget, the lower the percentage, because the system scales without scaling our cost to you. Frank, the AI surveillance layer, the team, the strategy, the landing pages, the tracking, the creative, the reporting. All of it scales with you. You do not buy a tier. You buy the studio. One off audits, account rebuilds, and tracking implementations are scoped fixed price, outside the retainer model.
