03 The system, stage by stage
STAGE 01
Strategy
Decide what you're actually selling.
Before a single frame or line of code. Who the buyer is, what they're really choosing between, what you say that nobody else can say. Every stage after this one is just execution of this decision — which is why most marketing fails here, not later.
- Positioning
- Offer design
- Messaging
- Brand identity
- Customer journey map
STAGE 02
Attention
Make something people stop for.
This is the part I've done longest — brand films, podcasts, photography, social. But now it gets built to a spec: every piece has a job, a destination, and a next step. Pretty is table stakes. Pointed is the point.
- Brand story films
- Podcast production
- Photography
- Social content
- Studio builds
STAGE 03
Destination
Give it somewhere worth landing.
The site, the store, the landing page. Built around the one action the business actually needs, fast enough to survive a phone on cell signal, and shaped so the content you just paid for has a place to send people.
- Websites
- Shopify & WooCommerce
- Landing pages
- Performance & SEO
- Design systems
STAGE 04
Conversion
Turn the visit into money.
Funnels, CRM, email and SMS, automations, and the reporting that tells you which stage is leaking. This is where most of a business's lost revenue is sitting, and it's the least glamorous work I do. It's also the part that pays for the rest.
- Funnels
- CRM & pipelines
- Email & SMS
- AI & n8n automation
- Dashboards
