The real problem

Most businesses don't have a lead problem

They have a connection problem. Everyone is busy, but nobody can clearly explain how a stranger becomes a customer.

You're spending on marketing but can't confidently name the channel that generates revenue.

You have tools, platforms and subscriptions — but they aren't genuinely connected.

Your team is producing content, but you aren't seeing predictable pipeline growth.

You know marketing should be working better than it is — but not where the leak is.

None of this means the business is failing. Usually it means the opposite: marketing has become too important to keep managing reactively.

About Paul

Head of Marketing judgement — and someone who builds the machinery

Eleven-plus years across SaaS, technology, property, investment and consumer businesses. I've delivered 5,000+ inbound leads a month for a £16M business, managed £500K+ annual budgets, and built lifecycle programmes across a 200,000-contact database.

For the past two years I've worked with founders and growth-stage companies on GTM strategy and lead-generation systems end to end: demand-generation campaigns wired into CRM, automation and lifecycle workflows across HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho and Go High Level.

I run paid hands-on across Meta, Google and GA4 — including the platforms' AI-driven campaign automation — and use AI daily across planning, creative testing and analysis.

What that means practically: strategy that ships as working pipeline infrastructure, not slide decks.

What I do

Where I add the most value

The full breadth of a senior marketing hire — available from day one, without the recruitment cycle.

Go-to-market strategy

ICP definition, positioning, messaging, channel selection and launch planning built around commercial outcomes — not vanity metrics.

Brand & messaging

Messaging frameworks that cut through and convert — from brand story down to the sales narratives your team uses on calls.

Demand generation & paid

Full-funnel demand programmes across paid search, social, outbound and ABM — hands-on across Meta, Google and GA4, always tied to pipeline.

Content & SEO

Authority-building content with an SEO backbone — thought leadership and conversion assets that compound instead of evaporating.

CRM & marketing automation

CRM architecture, nurture workflows and lifecycle automation across HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho and Go High Level. This is where most pipeline quietly leaks — and where I spend most of my time.

Most requested

Marketing team leadership

Building, structuring and leading marketing teams — hiring, performance frameworks, agency management and development. The full Head of Marketing role, fractional.

AI-enhanced marketing

Identifying where AI creates real leverage — content production, creative testing, personalisation and analysis — then implementing it properly.

Performance & attribution

Attribution models, dashboards and reporting structures that give you and your board genuine commercial visibility.

Sales & marketing alignment

Shared definitions, pipeline agreements, feedback loops and accountability — so both teams are chasing the same customer.

Not sure which model suits you? Fifteen minutes will make it clear.

Ad-hoc days are £850. For context, UK fractional marketing leadership benchmarks at £750–£1,400 per day in 2026, with London engagements sitting 20–40% above regional rates. Nothing here is a starting position I move off under pressure.

How we start

What the first 30 days actually look like

Committing budget to someone you met on a 15-minute call is a real risk. Here is exactly what happens, so it isn't a leap of faith.

Week 1

Audit, not opinions

I go through your CRM, analytics, campaigns and pipeline before I say anything. You get a written summary of where revenue actually comes from and where it's leaking.

Week 2

The one thing

We agree the single biggest lever and I start building it. Not a 40-page strategy — one working system, chosen because it moves the number.

Week 3

Shipped and wired

Something is live: campaign, CRM workflow, funnel, or all three. Wired into reporting so you can see it working rather than take my word for it.

Week 4

Honest review

We sit down with the numbers. If it's working we plan the next quarter. If it isn't, you have 30 days notice and a documented system you keep either way.

Minimum term is three months because nothing meaningful happens in marketing in less. But you are never more than 30 days from walking away, and everything I build stays in your account, in your name.

“What got you from £0 to £1M rarely gets you from £1M to £5M. At some point you stop needing more tactics. You need clarity, and you need systems.”

— Paul Georgian

AI-enhanced growth

AI moves you faster. It doesn't replace the thinking.

Give ten people the same AI tools and you get ten different outcomes. The difference isn't the prompt — it's the understanding of customers, positioning and how businesses actually grow. I help you put AI where it creates real leverage, then implement it properly.

AI-assisted content at scale

Content pipelines that hold your brand voice while cutting time-to-publish dramatically.

Lead scoring & personalisation

Segmentation and lifecycle logic that lifts conversion across the whole buyer journey.

Reporting & attribution

Automated insight that surfaces what's genuinely driving revenue, not what's easy to count.

What people say

Named references, not anonymous stars

Both recommendations below are public on LinkedIn, from people who worked with me directly.

“‘Outstanding’ is the phrase that comes to mind when I think of Paul… He has been a very important member of our organisation, leading marketing on both digital and offline with a project success rate of over 92%. He is highly technical and up to date with the latest marketing tools and software, and also highly creative — a trait rarely found in the same person.”

Before you book

The same job as a full-time Head of Marketing — owning strategy, running the function, leading the team and reporting to the board — on two to four days a week instead of five. You get senior judgement without a senior salary, and without a twelve-week hiring process.

An agency executes a brief. I write the brief. I sit inside your leadership team, own the number, and take responsibility for whether marketing works — including managing the agencies you already have.

Fractional Head of Marketing starts at £5,500 a month for two days a week, rising to around £9,500 at four days. A 90-day Strategic Sprint is £12,500 fixed. Advisory starts at £1,500 a month. Ad-hoc days are £850.

For comparison: a full-time Head of Marketing in London runs £75,000–£100,000 in salary, and once you add 15% employer national insurance, pension and a recruitment fee of roughly 20% of salary, year one lands closer to £110,000–£135,000. Two days a week costs about £66,000 a year, with no notice period and no recruitment cycle.

I'm London-based and currently available. Most engagements begin within two weeks of the first conversation — hybrid or fully remote.

Typically founder-led and growth-stage businesses between £1M and £20M turnover — the point where marketing has become too important to manage reactively, but a full-time senior hire isn't yet the right call.

Fifteen minutes, no pitch. You tell me where the business is and what isn't working. I tell you honestly whether I'm the right person — and if I'm not, I'll usually be able to point you somewhere better.
