About

Hello, my name is Ben and I’m a digital marketing professional based in Nottinghamshire, UK. I help people and businesses reach a wider audience for their products and services.

There was always a computer in my house growing up. Since I can remember, I’ve always enjoyed using them to create things digitally.

After graduating with a BA (hons) degree in Advertising from the University of Huddersfield in 2012, I went on to spend a decade in various senior marketing-based roles.

Having worked on a number of freelance projects alongside my employment, I made the decision in early 2022 to begin working for myself on a full-time basis; offering a range of marketing-based solutions that help individuals and organisations promote their offering in a professional way across various mediums.

My range of services includes: website design + build, graphic design, video editing, social media, branding and digital marketing strategy.

My Approach

If I'm not the right person for the job, I'll tell you.

I have no interest in selling services that I’m less than brilliant at, so if I’m not the right fit for your project then I’ll tell you right away.

Over the years I’ve worked with some fantastic freelancers and agencies, so I may even be able to point your in the right direction.

I believe that collaboration is a good thing.

You know your business and I know mine, so together I’m sure we can create something great.

I will challenge your ideas, and I expect you to challenge mine also.

I value engineer every project I work on.

For every bit of work I take on, I do my absolute best to provide value for money by using my knowledge and experience to find solutions that save cost.

That does NOT mean cutting corners, but instead finding ways to work more efficiently.

My versatility allows you to work with fewer external partners.

I can’t do everything, but I do have a wide skillset. This means I can help to streamline your marketing output by reducing the number of outsourced partners that you rely on.

I don't use templates, but I can create them for you.

I’m not in the business of churning out rubbish websites using store-bought templates, or crappy graphics that have been download from the likes of Canva.

All of my work is created from scratch, meaning you get something that is unique and relevant to your brand.

I can of course create templates for you and your internal team to use going forward.

I enjoy what I do.

Even if it wasn’t my job, I’d be creating things. In fact, I spent a lot of my free time building websites, creating videos and designing stuff just for fun.

What my clients say about me

“I’ve worked with Ben on various projects thanks to our mutual involvement with Women in Office Design. As co-founder of the Sustainable Design Collective, I agreed he would be a great choice to support our digital marketing requirements. Ben has creative control over the design and management of our website and social media assets – vitally important tools to maximise our reach and knowledge sharing.”

– Joanna Knight, Founding Member @ SDC

“When we took ownership of Creatif Wall, Ben was our first choice for helping to update the website and marketing collateral – from product brochures to videos, and everything in-between.

We had seen the great work the old company was doing from a marketing standpoint and knew he was responsible for the vast majority of it, so it was an easy decision. It made the transition from the old company to the new one as seamless as possible. We would highly recommend his services.”

– Colin Wright, Senior Sales Director @ Creatif Wall

“The first two years of building a dedicated network for women in the office workspace sector was done primarily through social media and events, but to continue to grow we needed our own online presence.

Ben was able to create a beautiful website for us and took the time to show us exactly how we could manage our online content such as blogs and promoting up-coming events. As a result WOD numbers are growing and we are more active online than ever. Following the launch of our new website we now work regularly with Ben and see him as an integral part of our Marketing Team.”

– Harsha Kotak, Founder @ WOD

“Our old website was no longer fit for purpose and needed to be re-built from the ground up. After meeting with a few agencies and freelancers we went ahead with Ben to build a new one, and are really pleased with the end result.

We’ve since gone on to work with him on a number of projects and his versatility when it comes to digital marketing allows us to limit the number of external partners we work with, which is really helpful.”

– Adam Martin, Managing Director @ NOVA Acoustics

“I’d attempted to build my own website using Canva for my business, The Basel Job Coach, but wasn’t satisfied with the end result. Ben has created several brilliant websites for me in the past, so when I made the decision to improve my site I reached out to him, and I’m glad that I did.

Once we’d discussed what I did and didn’t like about my existing website, Ben put together something that not only looks better but also performs better. The site now has a booking system my clients can use, forms with downloadable content that allows me to build up a database of prospects, a blog where I can easily post new content and it’s integrated with Google services to help with my SEO and Adwords marketing.”

– John Bowler, Founder & Director @ The Basel Job Coach

“We’ve chosen to work with Ben for a number of product launches because of the versatility he offers when it comes to digital marketing. He is able to work on our website, help us put together marketing plans as well as produce on-brand content such as product brochures, videos and social media content. He perfectly fills in the gaps we are unable to resource internally.”

– Sam West, Design Manager @ Innerspace Cheshire

“Ben did a great job in helping us to create a brand and website for Workspace Design Show, and continues to support our efforts by producing regular content that helps us communicate with our customers and ever-growing audience.”

– Esha & Charlie Bark-Jones, Founders @ Workspace Design Show

“Having worked with Simon Inc to design our website, Ben did an outstanding job with the build – taking flat designs and bringing them to life. The subtle animations and use of video (which is obviously a big thing for us!) really help to make the site engaging to visitors.

Not only are we happy with the website build, but Ben did a great job in providing us with training videos detailing how to make content changes etc. and is always on-hand to offer assistance if needed.”

– Tim Reynard, Head of Private Locations @ FilmFixer
