Growth Consulting for Start-ups with Lead-Gen Acquisition

Growth marketing consulting for businesses whose acquisition is based on lead generation. I conduct audits, action roadmaps for acquisition and retention, and execute reports that measure end to end.

Growth strategy that goes beyond campaigns

What I typically find

  • Businesses unable to generate leads consistently, with no clarity on why
  • Marketing, product and sales operating in disconnected silos
  • No clear strategy behind the campaigns running across channels
  • Focus on surface-level metrics that don't provide the right picture
  • No strategic direction connecting acquisition to the business

How I approach it

  • Meetings with all stakeholders to understand viewpoints and pain points
  • Audit of current channels and strategies
  • Planning prioritised by expected impact, available resources and execution timelines
  • Measurement that reflects real business metric performance
  • Multi-channel strategy execution tailored to your specific model, not generic templates
  • Continuous support from someone who has scaled similar businesses

What does the growth consulting engagement include?

Complete audit of your digital ecosystem

I analyse your current marketing stack in depth — what's active, how it performs and how it's measured. I identify what's working, what isn't, and what has the most room for improvement. This isn't a superficial audit: I get into the kitchen of the business and see which knives need sharpening and what equipment needs replacing.

Building the team

I need to understand the resources available — both budget and people. I work with a team of tactical freelancers that allows me to cover all the areas where profiles are missing: CRM, web development, content, paid media.

Prioritised growth roadmap

Once I've taken stock of resources and understood the areas for improvement, I work on planning the actions and budgets needed to execute the growth plan. I prioritise tasks based on business impact and activate them at the right moment.

Retention and LTV optimisation

Growth isn't only about winning new customers — it's also about making sure the foundations are in place to get the maximum return from existing ones. Through email strategies and pricing, the ARR of businesses can be substantially improved.

Measurement and reporting framework

I implement dashboards that give visibility across the full lead sales cycle — from the moment they enter the CRM with associated ad platform costs through to deal closure. This includes making sure the Sales team implements the processes needed to maximise visibility.

Flexible engagement formats

  • Strategic consulting: Audit + roadmap + regular strategy sessions
  • Fractional CMO: Continuous support as external marketing director
  • Paid Media focus: Concentrated focus on optimising Paid Media, one of the main channels
  • Strategic retainer: Ongoing availability for consultations, reviews and decisions

What people who've worked with me say

He analyses, iterates and improves performance month after month. Creatives, tracking, reporting and structure — everything that makes paid media work over the long run.

Clear method, sharp instincts, immediate results. He knows how to pick the right campaigns on Meta and Google, focusing on what truly drives performance.

He enabled us to optimise advertising returns and identify business opportunities beyond our expectations.

Does working together make sense?

Probably yes if...

  • You've validated your business, have a sense of your ICP and need to scale acquisition
  • You feel stuck and don't know where the bottleneck might be
  • Your team executes well but someone is needed to give clear direction
  • You think your teams are working in silos and acquisition needs to be connected to sales
  • You're looking for the perspective of an external profile who has previously worked through situations like yours

Probably not if...

  • You're in a very early stage and still defining your product and audience
  • You only want execution of actions and aren't looking for direction
  • You can't commit team time or budget to implement the proposed changes
  • You expect significant changes in the first month of the engagement

Frequently Asked Questions About Growth Consulting

What does a growth advisor do?

As a growth advisor I get fully involved in the client's business to understand the entire acquisition and retention process and architecture. My role is designed to bring improvement proposals in all areas I identify after conducting an audit. I then coordinate profiles and budgets in order to execute the actions and deliver results.

When do I need a growth consultant?

You already know who your audience is and have a product tested in the market with some minimum traction with your current setup. From that point, you need a senior profile who can elevate the entire acquisition system to a level that allows scaling the business as profitably as possible.

How long before I see impact?

Quick wins usually appear after the first month (technical optimisations and fixing obvious errors). More strategic changes — such as launching new channels or adjusting lead management processes — tend to show results around 2-3 months after being applied. Growth isn't magic: it's a continuous process of hypothesis, testing and optimisation of the entire funnel.

Difference between a growth advisor and an agency

A growth consultant works with you across all aspects of your acquisition, sits in on leadership meetings and coordinates profiles and departments around a shared goal. An agency tends to be more execution-focused, designed for larger companies that already have a clear direction and need hands to activate campaigns and launch actions. In my years in an agency focused on Paid Media, I realised that agencies optimise for their own profitability and try to assign as many clients as possible to each consultant or specialist. This creates a dynamic where it's impossible to dedicate the time each business really needs. A freelance consultant can afford to choose the clients they work with.
