About

Most consultancies know they need better marketing but don’t know where to start. At Flaming Barrel, we help you clarify your message and give you a marketing plan to follow. So you can ignite your brand, stand out from the competition and get paid what you’re worth.

Hello, I'm David

For over 20 years I’ve created memorable campaigns for every type of brand, from Rolls Royce to Pot Noodle. And written scripts for luminaries like Lewis Hamilton, Imelda Stanton and PG tips Monkey (who was by far the toughest to work with).

I often got frustrated working at big agencies, when I’d see too much emphasis on making the work look good and not enough on the thing that’s going to drive sales the most – your message. When this happens, businesses waste huge amounts of money.

Now I run Flaming Barrel, based in the UK. We focus on what’s proven to get you a return on investment.

The first thing we'll do is clarify your message. When your message is clear, clients can immediately see how you’ll add value. Whereas, if it’s unclear, clients will just bounce off your website and go somewhere else. The competition may not be as good as you, but if they explain their work and impact more clearly, they'll get the business.

Let’s chat about what your business needs and figure out whether I’m the right partner to help you grow. With a clear marketing plan in place, you can focus on what you love most – helping businesses and individuals thrive.
