Smarter Capital

As Chairman of Smarter Capital, my role is to drive results and find solutions that enhance the Groups performance. I am responsible for overseeing the acquisition of digital marketing agencies for the Group, as well as supporting acquisitions in the e-commerce and Support Services verticals. 

Since June 2022, we have successfully integrated eight companies into the Group, expanding our reach and capabilities locally, nationally, and now globally.

My primary focus is on growing the Digital Agency vertical and supporting the growth of our e-commerce vertical, each with a target of achieving £3 million in EBIT. This growth objective demonstrates our dedication to maximising the profitability and success of these sectors within the Group.

In addition to my responsibilities within the Group, I also prioritise assisting founders in maximising their shareholder value. This indicates our commitment to fostering strong relationships with the entrepreneurs behind the acquired companies, providing guidance and support to help them achieve their goals.

Furthermore, I am leading the development of our "Smarter Fund," which aims to generate above-average returns for everyday capital. This fund offers a secured solution that provides attractive financial opportunities while mitigating risk.

As Chairman of Smarter Capital, I am a results-oriented leader, driving growth in the digital marketing and eCommerce sectors, maximising shareholder value, and providing secure investment opportunities through the Smarter Fund.

I am proud to be one of the founders at Smarter Capital and working with an amazing and growing group of people. We excel at maximising shareholder value through strategic acquisitions and driving growth in the dynamic realms of digital marketing, e-commerce, and Support Services verticals.

Specialising in collaborating with owner-managed businesses within the digital marketing, website design and development, e-commerce, IT and support services sectors, we focus on companies with annual revenues ranging from £500,000 to £10,000,000. With our expertise and resources, we are committed to propelling these businesses to new heights.

Here, you will discover the breadth and depth of our capabilities, as well as our unwavering dedication to our people and everyone’s success.

Since June 2022, we have successfully acquired several businesses, including Smarter Media Ltd, ActivelyAds, Outsearch, Dexterous Designs, and Refresh Support. These strategic acquisitions have not only strengthened our portfolio but have also expanded our market reach, enabling us to deliver comprehensive solutions to our many hundreds of clients throughout the Group.

Furthermore, our entrepreneurial spirit extends beyond our core strategy. We embrace opportunities that may not align perfectly with our existing ventures. As a testament to this, we recently completed a corporate carve-out and introduced Smarter Export, demonstrating our ability to adapt and capitalise on diverse prospects.

If you have an opportunity that you believe warrants discussion, I encourage you to reach out to me directly. We welcome conversations about majority, and full acquisition opportunities, as we are constantly seeking new avenues for growth.

Helping individuals and teams to develop the skills and mindset needed for continuous growth, enhanced performance and good ROI | Certified Trainer and Coach | Creating Coaching Cultures | DM for details.

Highly motivated and driven professional. My greatest strength is an ability to help individuals and businesses realise and develop their potential, or as I like to call it, discovering their superpower! I do this through business training and/or coaching. 

An experienced executive coach, I work with mid-senior level managers, including partners in professional services and senior education leaders. Transformational coaching is a specific form of coaching that encourages critical reflection of how someone sees themselves, other people, their situation and the world at large (Bolton, 2023). Using this training and other coaching techniques I help facilitate thinking that moves individuals forward to be more confident and successful in their role. Group coaching and 1-2-1 are both available. 

Executive coach vs. life coach? We are a whole person and it's likely behaviour that manifests in our work life is also evidenced in our personal lives. As a coach, we use the same training, tools and techniques to help facilitate thinking. The key point of difference is that executive coaching is usually paid for by the company and life coaching by the individual. I work with both types of clients.

A highly experienced online and in-person business trainer. I enjoy creating and delivering inspiring and thought-provoking workshop content. Business training offered includes: Leadership (various), Performance Management, Personal Effectiveness, Team Building and Communication and Managing Change.
