Meet your media buyer

Hi, I'm Lee.

I've lived in Tenerife since 1997 and spent the last 15+ years buying ads: ten of them in-house at a marketing agency, rising from SEM specialist to Chief Marketing Officer and leading a team of media buyers, then independently since 2020.

Today I run Google, Meta, Microsoft, native and TikTok campaigns, mostly for US businesses. Every account is run by me personally, from the angle and the ad copy to the landing page and the tracking.

I don't chase clicks. I build campaigns around the leads and sales your business needs, and I tell you plainly what's working and what isn't.

How I work

How a campaign climbs.

Base · Understand

Your numbers first

Before spending anything, I learn your offer, your customers and your numbers, including what a lead or a sale is actually worth to you.

Ascent · Launch

Build and track

I choose the channels that fit, build the campaigns, and set up tracking so we both know what's working.

Summit · Grow

Keep what pays

I keep what pays, cut what doesn't, and move budget to where it earns most. You get short, plain-English updates, not a 40-page report.

Why work with me

You work with me. Not an account manager.

  • I run every campaign myself. No juniors, no hand-offs.
  • Your ad accounts stay in your name. You own them; I manage them.
  • Simple reporting: what we spent, what it brought in, what's next.
  • I work the whole campaign: the angle and the ad copy, the landing page, and the tracking behind it.
  • I prefer long-term work to one-off projects. My clients have stayed for years, not months.
  • I work mostly with US businesses, as well as in the UK and Spain, in English or Spanish.
