2026 already feels different. 

January was a sprint across tech and sales — and I’m proud to say we’re now trading globally. We finalised Canada over the weekend, which complements our US and Brazil algorithms across the Americas, nicely — a moment of real serendipity - as we head into our next growth chapter.

We’re now live in 27 markets:
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, UAE, KSA, UK and the US.

I also turned 29 in January, and I’ve never felt hungrier to push myself further before my 30th birthday. As someone who has never taken the easy route, I can safely say that this year will be the biggest yet. 

This is why 700+ advertisers have already registered for Transact Media Group (TMG) Business Manager. With 45+ integrations complete, it takes just three clicks to get started for outcome based marketing or data activations. 

Our mission is clear, we believe using historic transactional data will impact your future transactions and lead to enhanced business results. 

The problems we are solving for our brand & agency partners:
﻿
1. Improve campaign performance – Leveraging transactional data to optimise social and programmatic media campaigns.
2. Business outcome marketing – Running fixed cost-per-sale or outcome-based campaigns to acquire new or engage existing customers across display, video, connected TV, YouTube, and podcasts.
3. Measure real impact – Tracking how connected TV (CTV) marketing actually drives purchases, not just impressions.
4. Repurpose creative content – Working with content creators to turn Meta and TikTok content into high-performing programmatic ads, matched directly to transactional data sets.

I’m excited to welcome Mike and Debbie as we scale our North America go-to-market.

Huge thanks to the team - this show is only just getting started, I’m honoured to lead this business forward. 

Thank you for all your continued support.

In the past we used to advertise broad messages to broad audiences on billboards and newspaper spreads but now, thanks to the advent of PPC (pay-per-click) and social advertising, we’re able to advertise specific messages to specific audiences to achieve a much greater impact - which is where I come in. I put brands and businesses directly in front of their target audience with highly targeted paid advertising campaigns on platforms such as Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat in order to drive sales and leads.

About me:

I’m a super ambitious, motivated and dedicated business leader passionate about all things business and marketing. I get a kick out of problem solving, thinking outside the box, learning new things and creating value for businesses. I’m also an advocate for remote working, a healthier planet and a happy balance.

Whilst I have a knowledge and interest in all things marketing, I chose to specialise in PPC advertising because I see it as The Business End of Digital Marketing. So I founded Vagabond Digital to help businesses and brands put their products and services directly in front of their target audience. We use a combination of automation and brain power to successfully drive sales and leads into businesses of all sectors. We’re a little different in that we’re a remote business, which means we have neither office locations nor restrictions. This enables us to work with the most impressive talent around the globe, offer flexibility to our staff and improve communication channels - all the while delivering a premium service to our clients.

We offer flat rate fees, great value for money and a high level of expertise.

I’d love to hear from anyone interested in marketing, collaborating or growing their business. Drop me a message and we can arrange a virtual coffee chat - tj@vagabonddigital.co.uk

The books I recommend most often: 

Shoe Dog, Tools of Titans, Think and Grow Rich and for some fiction - East of Eden.
