Research and Growth

The earth is not flat. And neither should your acquisition ads' performance be.

Having worked in-house for years, I take an in-house view to Growth. We audit, sometimes do research and come up with a roadmap to growth for our clients. Whether through acquisition campaigns (usually Google or Meta Ads) or via work on customer journeys. Our audits usually uncover a nugget or two that can unlock growth.

Onto

Did you hear that? Neither did I. Electric cars are quiet beasts. 

As Europe's largest electric car subscription services, Onto helped thousands of B2C and B2B customers drive electric cars for the first time. Having raised more than £340 million in funding, my job was to sensibly spend a big portion of that money.

Working with a team of talented individuals we drove digital and offline campaigns (e.g. Linear TV) and as well as improved the customer journey on web and app. As a monthly subscription business, no sentence was complete without a mention of our LTV:CAC ratio.

Head of Growth

Most companies with £1,000+ customer LTVs experience poor performance on paid acquisition because they're using the wrong playbook.

They're using DTC and ecommerce strategies - optimising for quick conversions, pumping out generic creative which lead to high CACs and low quality leads.

Long conversion cycles require a fundamentally different approach.
At Deep Growth, we work with B2B companies and high-LTV B2C businesses to align your acquisition strategy with how your customers actually buy.
Over the past 10 years, I've worked with companies on profitable growth when sales cycles stretch beyond 30 days:

→ Ben (Employee Benefits Platform)
Led a transformation project to move upmarket into enterprise, reworking their Google Ads strategy and prospect experience while optimising HubSpot dashboards for longer, complex sales cycles. This proof of concept changed how they approach enterprise acquisition.

→ The Electric Car Scheme (Electric cars as employee benefits)
Scaled their Paid Search beyond previous limits by building custom offline conversion automations between Pipedrive and ad platforms. Restructured accounts to focus on what actually drives pipeline, not just leads. Result: Record YoY growth.

→ Onto (Car Subscription)
Faced the challenge of introducing an entirely new concept to the UK market. Built a rapid creative iteration machine that produced contextual ads helping drivers understand car subscription without the hard sell. Became Europe's largest car subscription company by seeding the benefits of car subscription  across Meta, Google, and Reddit.

Our Deep Growth methodology is built specifically for long conversion cycles.
We focus on three core pillars:

✓ Platform Architecture - Setting up Google and/or Meta to track what matters: pipeline influence, not just last-click conversions. Attribution that actually reflects your sales cycle.
✓ Journey Optimisation - Mapping the real conversion journey and optimising touchpoint for progression.
✓ Contextual Creative - Developing ads that plant seeds early, nurture consideration, and accelerate decision-making when prospects enter their buying window.

The uncomfortable truth about high-LTV advertising:
The best prospects aren't ready to buy today. They might not even know they have a problem yet. But when they are ready - in 3, 6, or 12 months - you need to be the obvious choice.
This requires patient capital, better tracking, and creative that educates without preaching.
Unlike other agencies we optimise for more than just MQLs.

Helping mobile apps grow quickly & profitably | Growth Consultant | Founder & CEO @ Perceptycs

Growing a 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙛𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙚 𝙖𝙥𝙥 is not easy! It’s a bumpy, rough and competitive road.

If you’re on that journey, you’ll know what I mean. Whether it’s:

1️⃣ Finding product market fit
2️⃣ Solving retention problems
3️⃣ Profitably scaling acquisition without burning ad spend
4️⃣ Improving unit economics for a strong LTV:CAC

You need brutal prioritisation, constant experimentation, and the right processes to keep your team aligned on the work that matters. 

And those are exactly the challenges I love!

I’ve worked on both the product and marketing side and have experience as a Head of Growth for a mobile app start-up.

I’ve worked with startups to grow rapidly after achieving clear product market fit. I’ve worked with startups that failed to ever reach product market fit. But most importantly - I’ve worked in the trenches with startups to go through the long, arduous process of ‘Finding Product Market Fit’.

I know what does and doesn't lead to a profitable mobile app.

And I know what levers to pull to drive consistent growth.

That’s why I started Perceptycs - a growth agency for early stage Mobile apps

We help early stage mobile apps drive growth, retention and revenue in order to scale from Seed to Series B as an investor backed startup or scale profitably as a bootstrapped startup.

So if you have any growth questions - drop me a message: nathan@perceptycs.com
