About

Dr Matthew Terrell

I build marketing functions that drive real growth — and brands that people genuinely connect with.

Overview

Over the past decade I've led global teams, scaled two-sided marketplaces, and taken brands through acquisition, and built communities from the ground up. I work best with ambitious organisations that treat marketing as a strategic asset, not a support function.

Strategy and craft

A track record that covers strategy and craft. I've led global marketing at vLex across 40+ countries, co-founded and scaled a two-sided SaaS marketplace to acquisition, and held CMO, Global Director, and Head of Marketing roles across more than a decade. The consultancy work I do now draws on all of it.

Services

Twelve services. One point of contact.

From brand identity and photography to podcast production and fractional CMO, everything is handled directly by me — no account managers, no handoffs.
