I’ve spent the past decade using marketing, data, analytics & automation to help early-stage startups grow.
I’ve worked with bootstrapped & venture-backed businesses, and was the co-owner of an e-commerce business that successfully scaled to acquisition. I'm now channeling my experience to help early-stage startups acquire, activate & retain more customers, so they can gain traction and grow.
Working with me
Experience
With a decade of early-stage experience, I can dive straight into challenges, blending strategic advice with operational know-how.
Speed & Access
I work at 'startup speed', offering fast, direct expertise. You deal directly with me, not an ever-changing team of juniors assigned to your agency account.
Flexibility
I've understand that startups are constantly evolving and can adapt my services as your needs change.
My goal is to help your startup grow to the level where you won't need me anymore.
"Our growth was stalling until David arrived. He sparked a swift turnaround, and within a few weeks our sales were increasing and continued to grow until we were acquired."
Some more about me
Born and raised in New Zealand, moved to London (UK) after university, now live with my wife & 2 small children in Västerås, Sweden (about 50min from Stockholm).
Was the co-owner of an Amazon FBA-focused ecommerce business that scaled to millions in revenue before it was acquired.
First marketing hire (Growth Marketing Manager) at Resource Guru.
Co-organizer of Stockholm's Growth Labs: Nordic Meetup (1k+ members).
Enjoy building side-projects, and generally use Ruby on Rails when any dev work is involved.
Spent a few years in my early 20's mixing cocktails in London (hence 'Stirred').
Love reading and always have a few books on-the-go.
When I'm not at my computer, reading, or with family/friends, then I'm probably out running, lifting weights or training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
