Growing a D2C startup is challenging; competition is rising, as are acquisition costs.

You need to stand out and focus on the actions that matter, but how? 🤔

That is where I come in.

Hi, I'm Daphne, a Dutchie living in London 👋 .

I’ve worked on both the agency and brand side, meaning I’ve seen it from both sides. In addition, I’ve helped a wide range of business types and have experience as a Head of Growth for a start-up.

I know what does and doesn't lead to growth.

I decided to channel my experience into coaching Founders and the Head of Growths on how to grow faster. Even an hour or two a month can significantly impact results.

Sometimes you need someone to help you step back and see things from a 10,000-foot perspective. Sometimes you just need someone to reassure you that you’re on the right track.
That’s me; I’m your critical cheerleader, helping you move forward with open and honest advice.

Here is why you should work with me:
✅ Grew the 1st startup I worked for from 1 to 25 employees and consulted 50+ brands.
✅ In 18 months as Head of Growths at Heights, I increased the subscriber base of Heights by 10x whilst keeping monthly churn under 8%.
✅ Wrote a book on Growing Happy Clients.
✅ Feature writer for GrowthHackers.com and BetterMarketing (11,000+ monthly readers).
✅ Work with over 20 brands monthly (both coaching and mentor sessions) so see a wide range of businesses, including well-known D2C startups like Ocean Bottle and Bower Collective.
✅ Spend 10+ hours a week learning, so always up-to-date with the latest trends.

Who do I work with?
🌱🏃 Founders and Head of Growths of wellness and eco-friendly D2C Brands.

What do you gain working with me?
🚀 Faster growth - I'll help you learn what to focus on and what not to get better results faster.
🚀 Expert advice - It can be expensive (and not always necessary) to hire a full-time Head of Growth. However, from just a few hours, you can get insights that will save you 100s of wasted hours for a fraction of the cost.
🚀 New knowledge - My goal is always to teach you how to solve a problem so that we can keep working on the next challenge.

How can we work together?
1️⃣ Coaching - Monthly coaching to go through your growth challenges and develop a concrete action plan.
2️⃣ Workshop - We can work together to re-energise your team from a short inspiration session to a deep dive hands-on workshop.
3️⃣ Interim Head of Growth - 1 day per week (+2 hours of support) for brands who aren't ready (or still looking) for a full-time head of growth.
