I have met many incredible humans on GrowthMentor - and a small handful have truly gone above and beyond to understand my vision, my struggles and empower me to keep moving forward. Ryan is one of them - this time, our session was about mindset. Ryan has the ability to challenge your thinking and lift you up at the same time. We spoke on many powerful topics - and it was exactly the kick up the proverbial a*se I needed. Ryan has the power to activate people. And he is truly is in this to empower founders - period. And that's a rare quality - that I value deeply. If you're aligned to a bigger vision, passionate about your idea and need someone to talk to who will give you the sort of tough-love guidance you need to go to the next level - book with Ryan.

Bio

I believe that NOTHING is more powerful than connecting with people who have walked the path before you. I won't sugarcoat it—I’ve faced both triumphs and challenges. I understand how shared experiences and insights can help others navigate their journeys. With 6 years of experience as a marketing agency owner and former head of growth marketing for Funnelytics.io, I love helping professionals and business owners that can't see the forest for the trees when it comes to marketing. Stuff we can discuss: ✅ Funnel & Customer Journey Mapping and Optimization (Demand Capture) ✅ Demand Generation Strategies (the long-game) ✅ Offer development and optimization ✅ Inbound and Outbound Marketing Tactics ✅ Sales Development and Direct outreach ✅ Mindset, Productivity and Overwhelm ✅ Increasing Leads and Optimizing Conversion (Scaling vs. Growth) ✅ Hiring and managing Small teams under 20 people ✅ Customer Retention and Churn reduction ✅ Navigating life with Neurodivergence and ADHD as a marketer or entrepreneur Having invested significantly in my own professional and personal development through mentors and coaches, I’ve seen firsthand the amazing results that come from these relationships. I understand the challenges of feeling lonely, unsupported and burned out, especially in a remote work environment. I’m a natural connector and even if I can’t help you directly, I’m almost certain that I can connect you with someone who can. If you’re looking for creative, fresh marketing perspectives, or someone to bounce ideas off of, I'd love to connect and chat with you. What's your excuse?

Expertise


  • Building a team

    Building a team is all about finding the right people and fostering a positive culture. I’ve scaled my agency from solo to a team of 10 and know when it's best to hire full-time employees versus contractors. I'd love to chat about how to attract, retain, and empower the best talent.

  • Conversion rate optimisation

    Identifying areas of improvement, drop-off points and funnel leaks is the key to scaling any business. Conversion Rate Optimization is about turning interest into action and is the fastest way to increase revenue, without additional ad spend! But to do this, you should be looking at overall contribution to your bottom line instead of blindly taking attribution data at face value. We can analyzing user behavior across the entire customer journey maximize every opportunity.

  • Customer success

    I believe that happy customers are the key to sustainable growth. I enjoy helping businesses develop strategies that ensure clients achieve their desired outcomes, leading to loyalty, referrals and testimonials. Surveys, questionnaires, and an effective email campaign can do WONDERS for customer success. Mostly, it's about ASKING them.. and then LISTENING to what the hell they have to say. Let's chat about it!

  • Demand generation

    Demand generation is a long game to attract leads and build the "know, like and trust" factor. Would love to explore the best ways to engage your audience and build lasting relationships that drive growth so you stay top of mind. Spoiler alert... that's generally not by only screaming "BUY MY STUFF!"

  • Go to market strategy

    I enjoy helping businesses define their target audience and craft compelling messaging that resonates. I started from ZERO clients, crafted a list of leads, and contacted EACH one individually to make my first sale—no complicated proposals, no SOPs, and no marketing budget. If I can do it alone, anyone can! Whether you’re launching a new product or entering a new market, your go-to-market strategy should be based on real market feedback and action.

  • Growth marketing

    I’ve spent over 6 years mastering growth marketing, scaling my agency from solo to a multi six-figure full service funnel marketing agency. In my growth role at Funnelytics.io, I honed my skills in driving customer acquisition and retention. I love sharing what I've learned to help others unlock their growth potential.

  • Marketing automation

    Marketing automation is a game changer for efficiency! I love helping businesses streamline their processes with marketing tools like Kartra, zapier and CRMs. From list segmentation using behavioral adaptive marketing automations to email campaigns, to lead nurturing, I would love to dive into how automation can save you time and keep your customers engaged without overwhelming you!

  • Mindset coaching

    Mindset is everything when it comes to success! I believe in the power of a growth-oriented mindset to overcome challenges and stay motivated. Having faced my own ups and downs as an entrepreneur, I love sharing strategies to help you build resilience. It's hard to not compare yourself with others around your. Your existence makes you unique. Would love to help you believe it.

  • Sales

    My entire business's growth is based on sales. It's not just about integrating checkouts it’s about building genuine connections and inspiring trust. I've also got experience in inside sales and with sales development/biz development. Outreach strategies and messaging area a great place to start before diving into sales motions. In sales... stranger means danger... so I don't believe in the pushy tactics!
