Growth Strategy & CRO

Build the full-funnel growth engine. Not just the top of it.

Acquisition to retention — growth architecture built to compound. AARRR frameworks, conversion rate optimisation, and growth systems for ambitious brands.

Growth isn't a channel. It's an architecture.

Most companies treat growth as a synonym for acquisition. More ads, more content, more spend. But the brands that compound over time are the ones that optimise the entire funnel — acquisition, activation, retention, referral, and revenue — in parallel.

I design and implement full-funnel growth systems: the frameworks, experiments, tooling, and metrics that create compounding momentum. From onboarding flows that actually activate users, to referral programmes that drive organic growth, to CRO that improves conversion without spending more on acquisition.

Full-Funnel Architecture

Map and optimise every stage from awareness to advocacy — eliminating the leaks that make acquisition expensive.

Experimentation Framework

Build a structured testing programme — hypothesis, design, measurement, and decision-making that moves fast without breaking things.

Conversion Rate Optimisation

Landing page audits, A/B testing, UX improvements, and funnel analysis that convert more of the traffic you already have.

Referral & Virality

Programme design, incentive architecture, and referral mechanics that turn customers into acquisition channels.

How it works

01

Funnel Audit

Map the current funnel, instrument measurement, identify conversion rate benchmarks, and pinpoint the biggest leaks.

02

Opportunity Prioritisation

Score growth opportunities by impact, confidence, and effort. Build a prioritised experiment backlog.

03

Experiment & Build

Run experiments, build funnel improvements, and implement the wins systematically.

04

Compound & Scale

Build on compounding improvements — each quarter delivering higher returns from the same acquisition investment.

Frequently asked questions

I use a modified ICE framework (Impact, Confidence, Effort) combined with funnel stage weighting — prioritising experiments at the stages with the highest current friction and the biggest downstream impact.
Yes. I audit landing pages, brief design and copy changes, set up A/B tests in VWO or native platform tools, analyse results, and document learnings. I also work with your existing CRO tools if you have them.
Referral programmes fail when the incentive is wrong, the UX is friction-heavy, or the timing is off. I start with customer motivation research, then design the incentive structure, referral flow, and measurement approach before a single line of code is written.
Depends on the stack. I've worked with Mixpanel, Amplitude, GA4, Segment, Hotjar, VWO, Optimizely, WebEngage, HubSpot, Klaviyo, and custom analytics setups. I'm tool-agnostic — I'll work within what you have.

Ready to grow?

If your acquisition is working but growth has plateaued, the problem is almost always downstream. Let's find it and fix it.
