Don't take my word for it.
Whether you're a small startup or a large corporation, let me be your trusted advisor on the path to growth.
Konrad Sanders
CEO - The Creative Copywriter
My agency provided Duncan with content strategy and copywriting services, while he was leading the helm at Arun Estates. And he was one of the few clients we've worked with that truly and instantly "got" content marketing. He had an impressive holistic understanding of marketing, and how content fits into the wider picture. He was keen to disrupt and 'zig while the industry zags'. And his feedback was always well-considered and constructive. Plus, he's fun to have a beer with!
Matt Phelan
Founder - The Happiness Index
Duncan is a data driven, creatively led marketer with an entrepreneurial flair. He understands both the commercial and human side of running a thriving business. Highly recommended.
Lee Wainwright
CEO Focal Agent & CEO Purplebricks
I loved working with Duncan, a marketing professional that truly understands the commercialism that has to sit behind the investments that he makes. Watching him build his marketing campaigns with data based insights which he uses to drive the performance of every element of the marketing funnel. Nice guy who does a great job.

Duncan is a capable leader whose positivity, loyalty, ingenuity and can-do attitude will be greatly missed at PTK.
