Ollie Martin

I am a modern marketing consultant, currently running my own business full time but always seeking new projects and opportunities (anywhere from 1-2 days per week). I have an entrepreneurial history and eager to work alongside other professionals to share knowledge, bring expertise and deliver a can do attitude whilst motivating others. As a digital professional with experience both agency side and client side, across a broad range of industries, my talent lies in defining social media and marketing strategies lead by digital technologies. My success to date has ranged from developing full six figure marketing strategies through to smaller projects such as SEO friendly content creation. Other success in online product merchandising for major retailer websites and full website and e-commerce solutions has also seen me headhunted. I am seeking new opportunities where I can transform a company’s marketing efforts and I am available to start work immediately. I pride myself on a good clear interview technique with in depth research on the role or project. This is then delivered in an efficient presentation with new ideas, examples and strategy which more often than not concludes with myself as the recruitment solution.
