Expert-Vetted Top 1% Upwork consultant | Nearly $3M billed since 2021 | 100% Job Success I find the revenue already sitting inside your store. I spent 25+ years founding, scaling, and exiting my own ecommerce companies across supplements, subscription, manufacturing, nutraceuticals, and consumer products. I have lived the operator side of growth: cash flow, CAC pressure, conversion problems, failed launches, retention leaks, agency confusion, inventory risk, and the constant question every founder eventually has to answer: Where is the money leaking? That is the problem I help solve. Since my last exit, I’ve spent the last two years building RavenOS, my private AI-assisted growth analysis system. It helps me review Shopify, Klaviyo, GA4, Meta, and customer data faster and more thoroughly than a normal audit process. It looks for the things most teams miss: failed payments, weak lifecycle flows, cohort decay, discount stacking, checkout friction, poor offer sequencing, low repeat purchase, and revenue hiding inside the existing customer base. Outside of client work, I also build my own software systems. One current example is NRGX Labs, my invite-only institutional options research platform. I designed and built it around 18 quant engines, roughly 190 API routes, 160K+ lines of Python/JS, 1,200+ tests, and a layered OpenAI system that turns deterministic market structure into clear research, explanations, and structured trade-readiness outputs. So when I talk about AI-assisted growth systems, data-backed ecommerce analysis, or product experience, I’m not speaking theoretically. I’ve built real systems where the AI layer has to be grounded, constrained, useful, and commercially practical. RavenOS is the tool I wish I had when I was running my own brands. Back then, I found leaks the hard way: by losing the money first. That is where 25 years of founder/operator pattern recognition comes in. I am not handing you generic AI output or a 40-page deck of best practices. I am looking at your business like someone who has sat in the founder seat with his own money on the line. What you get is a clear read on where revenue is being lost, what it is likely costing you, and what I would fix first. 🤓 A few background highlights: • Founded and scaled 6 companies across ecommerce, manufacturing, nutraceuticals, subscription, and consumer products • $587M+ in gross retail sales across founder-led DTC brands • Built subscribe-and-save programs with 250k+ monthly members, plus a 4,000-member monthly box • Exits include MySupplementStore, GeekBox, and KEEG Ocean Plastics, which was acquired by University of California, Irvine • Shopify Plus brands with sustained 4-6% conversion rates • Inc. 5000, #40 fastest-growing retail company in the U.S. • Inc. Magazine “30 Top CEOs Under 30” • Expert-Vetted Top 1% on Upwork • Nearly $3M billed since 2021 • 100% Job Success I find that most engagements fall into one of three categories: 👉 GROWTH BLUEPRINT My flagship engagement. I review your current growth stack with the help of RavenOS, then deliver a complete operator-level blueprint: performance snapshot, ranked revenue-leak map, acquisition and lifecycle fixes, retention/subscription opportunities, CRO priorities, and a practical 90-day execution plan. This is best for brands that know there is more revenue in the business but need a sharper read on where it is sitting and what to fix first. 👉 CONVERSION & RETENTION SPRINT A focused engagement around one constraint: funnel efficiency, lifecycle revenue, repeat purchase, email/SMS performance, offer clarity, checkout friction, or revenue per visitor. This is best when the problem is already visible and you want a senior operator to help diagnose and prioritize the fix. 👉 FOUNDER GROWTH ADVISORY + MONITORING Ongoing advisory for founders who want a senior growth operator watching the business week over week. RavenOS surfaces anomalies, leaks, and opportunities. I review the findings and help turn them into practical decisions before they cost you a quarter. Most businesses do not need more complexity or another dashboard. They need an accurate read on where revenue is being lost, a short list of what to fix first, and someone who has actually done it before. That is where I come in.

I help startups, SaaS companies, and e-commerce businesses understand how users think, where they get stuck, and what is preventing them from converting. Rather than focusing only on design, I combine behavioral psychology, qualitative research, analytics, and usability best practices to uncover the real problems behind low conversion rates. My services include: • UX Audits & Conversion Audits • UX Research (Qualitative & Quantitative) • Usability Testing • CRO Analysis • User Journey & Information Architecture Reviews • Heuristic Evaluations • Product Research & Validation • Competitor Analysis • GA4, Microsoft Clarity & Hotjar Reviews • Actionable Reports with Prioritized Recommendations Every recommendation is based on evidence, not assumptions.

I help DTC and eCommerce brands grow revenue across the entire funnel, paid acquisition direction, conversion rate optimisation (CRO), and post-purchase upsells and retention, instead of fixing one piece in isolation. My foundation is CRO for Shopify: landing page and PDP design and A/B testing, the discipline that taught me exactly where brands lose money. But a high-converting page can't rescue badly targeted traffic, and it can't grow a funnel that stops at the first sale. So I own the stages on either side of it too. How I work the funnel: → Acquisition — direction on Meta & Google ad strategy: angles, offers, audiences and creative briefs, so the traffic matches the page it lands on → Conversion — CRO audits, landing page & PDP design, A/B testing, behavioural insight → Checkout & AOV — offer structuring, bundles, cart optimisation → Post-purchase — one-click upsells and downsells that lift order value after the sale → Retention — email, SMS & WhatsApp lifecycle in Klaviyo (welcome, abandoned cart, post-purchase, winback) Recent client results: £202K in sales in the first 13 months for a UK DTC & B2B brand (Google + Meta + Klaviyo as one funnel) 2.0× blended ROAS in 60 days launching a new UK DTC brand (Meta + PDP CRO) 11.2% conversion rate on an angle-matched landing page (9,100 visitors) AOV up 138% to £51.24 in 30 days Conversion rate up 132% to 4.21% in 30 days How I run paid I provide the strategic direction including angles, offers, audience and creative briefs, and the conversion path the spend feeds into and align it with execution alongside your media buyer or mine. The point is that the ads, the page they hit, and the follow-up are all designed as one system, not three disconnected hires. Who I work with: DTC and eCommerce founders worldwide, with primary experience across the UK, US, Canada, Australia and the EU, in supplements, beauty, wellness, grooming, men's and women's fashion, and lifestyle. Whether you need a focused CRO sprint or an ongoing full-funnel partner, let's talk.

If you’re hiring for CRO on Upwork, you’re not looking for more opinions. You’re looking for someone who can drive real revenue. I work with 7 & 8-Fig brands to increase conversion rate, uncover hidden revenue leaks, and build buying journeys that convert harder as you scale. WHY BRANDS SWITCH TO ME Most CRO consultants: - run slow - rely on manual analysis - test randomly - charge retainers without clear ROI We use an AI-first CRO system to: - analyze funnels faster - identify revenue leaks with precision - generate better hypotheses - execute high-impact tests quicker Everything tied to one thing: ROI THE OFFER Every project is built to generate: 3–5X ROI MINIMUM Typical outcomes: +10–20% additional revenue on existing traffic $300K/month store → +$30K–$60K/month These gains compound even after the engagement ends. WHAT YOU ACTUALLY GET We have two options, a fully done-for-you or a plug and play. We have the capabilities to handle: strategy, research, copy, UI/UX, design, development, testing & iteration MY EDGE I don’t do “good enough”. I dominate the niches I work in. That means: - find where the funnel is breaking - understand why users hesitate - fix it with high-converting messaging + design - execute fast - and actually move revenue You don’t copy the market. We make you the benchmark by pushing your store ahead of competitors. PROOF - $60M+ in added eCommerce revenue - 50+ brands across 11+ niches - 9+ years experience Recent wins: - New Zealand Honey Co. → +36% CVR (~$1.8M added) - Meat N’ Bone → +27% CVR (~$1.2M added) - Kiddie Corner → +32% CVR (~$2.2M added) - Effing Gear → +30% CVR (~$500K added) WHEN THIS MAKES SENSE - Conversion rate isn’t matching traffic quality - CAC is rising and margins are shrinking - Growth has plateaued - A/B testing hasn’t delivered real wins - You want someone to own CRO end-to-end WHO THIS IS FOR - $200K–$1M/month brands - Serious about scaling profitably - Want predictable, structured growth - Want a partner, not a freelancer Most clients stay 6–12 months+ because once this compounds, it becomes one of the highest ROI channels in the business. NEXT STEP Send me your store. I’ll tell you: - where you’re losing revenue - what upside exists - and whether it’s worth fixing right now Last updated: April 2026

CONVERSION RATE OPTIMIZERS FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is conversion rate optimization (CRO)?

Conversion rate optimization is a systematic approach to increasing the conversion rate of a website or marketing campaign. From micro-conversions, such as subscribing to an email list, to macro-conversions, such as purchasing a product from your online store, conversion rate optimization professionals are here to help.

Here’s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in conversion rate optimization contractors:

  • CRO/SEO/SEM strategy
  • CRO tools such as Google Analytics
  • On-site optimization
  • PPC (pay-per-click) advertising
  • Experience with sales funnels, email marketing, and lead generation

Why hire conversion rate optimization specialists?

The trick to finding top conversion rate optimizers is to identify your needs. Do you need someone who can perform qualitative and quantitative research across your entire sales funnel with a specific analytics tool such as Kissmetrics? Will they also need copywriting skills to directly improve the conversion rate of your landing pages and email autoresponders? The cost of your project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life. 

How much does it cost to hire a conversion rate optimizer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced conversion rate optimization consultant may command higher fees but also work faster, have more-specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their conversion rate optimization services more competitively. 

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project.
