It's Time for Growth Not Grind
Business & Marketing Support for Time-Strapped Soloists & Founders
Being the face of your business is exciting but exhausting. As a soloist or founder, you juggle every role — strategist, operator, marketer, and doer. You're so focused on client work that finding time to work on your business feels impossible. That's where I come in!

The Struggle is Real
As a soloist or founder, it's easy for the big-picture work like refining your offers, improving systems, or building visibility to take a backseat. Client work always comes first, and those critical tasks get pushed to "later" again and again.
But without a clear plan and consistent marketing, your business won't grow, and you'll always feel like you're playing catch-up instead of taking control. Do any of these sound like you?
Overly Reactive
You're constantly responding to client requests, handling urgent tasks, and putting out fires. This leaves little room for strategic thinking and proactive steps toward your business growth.
Boom or Bust
Your business cycles between periods of high demand and quiet times. Without steady marketing and a clear plan, growth becomes unpredictable, leaving you feeling stressed and out of control.
Lack of Focus
You're pulled in many directions with no clear priority. This makes it difficult to focus on areas that will ultimately drive growth — like refining your offers or building a marketing strategy.
The good news is, it doesn't have to be this way. For the past six years, I've been helping soloists and founders like you make time for the strategic work that drives real growth — things like defining their offers, understanding their customers, creating simple marketing strategies, and delivering consistently to clients.
My programs and support packages are designed to help you progress in just a few hours a week. Whether you need a small business reset, help building your marketing muscle, or ongoing support and guidance, I'll be there to help you stay on track and keep moving forward.
Programs and Packages
As a soloist or founder, you need solutions that help you move forward simply and effectively. These three offers are designed to meet you where you are, providing the clarity, strategy, and support you need to grow your business without pulling you away from day-to-day operations.
Forget complex frameworks and jargon (though I might sneak in a few acronyms) — you'll get straightforward, actionable steps to define what you do, who you do it for, and how to communicate it to your target market. Best of all, you can make real progress in just a couple of hours a week. Can you afford not to?

Who I Help
The majority of my clients are soloists and founders working in the Shopify Partner ecosystem (learn why I specialise in Shopify). If you see yourself in the descriptions below, there's a very good chance we'll work well together.
- Soloist — You are your business. While you might outsource tasks like accounting, it's mostly just you juggling everything. You know a healthy pipeline would change your business but just can't find the time to think about marketing — let alone do it while still managing client work, sales, and everything else.
- Founder — You started (or co-founded) a business that's grown into a team. Whether by design or accident, you now juggle 1-1s, sales calls, proposals, relationship building and the work. Your biggest challenges? Attracting and retaining clients while managing the complexities of a growing business.
While my primary focus is on Shopify-focused businesses, I also support soloists and founders working in the digital, SaaS, and creative services space such as marketers, designers, app developers, content writers, and SEO specialists. Many work closely with Shopify-focused businesses or play key roles in the wider e-commerce ecosystem and face similar challenges in growth, marketing, and delivering exceptional services.
If this sounds like you let's have a conversation and find out how we can work together.
Who Am I?
Hello, I'm Keir! I'm a business and marketing consultant and event host specialising in supporting soloists and founders (many working in the Shopify Partner ecosystem) who want to improve and grow their businesses but aren't sure where to start.
I've spent the last 20 years working in the web, tech, and ecommerce industries. I started out as a web developer, morphed into product marketing and was the second hire on Shopify's nascent Partnerships team. After seven years at Shopify I left to start my own consultancy. For the last six years, I've been building my own business, facing plenty of challenges and learning invaluable lessons along the way.
Today, I use this experience to guide Shopify-focused soloists and founders who are ready to grow personally and professionally. If you're looking to take control of your business and make real progress, let's talk.
You can learn more about me and my background on my about page.
