We steer the marketing. You get back to running the business.

Pablo & Dave is a small marketing consultancy. We work alongside founders, leadership teams and investors, setting the direction and, where it helps, doing the work too.

Find your situation

A 55-second film. Marketing matters. But nobody senior is steering it. Six situations, each turned round: “We spend a fortune on marketing and I’ve no idea what’s working” becomes spend tied to results, and your time back. “We’ve just raised, and I’m still doing the marketing myself” becomes a marketing function that stands on its own. “Our marketing person’s good, but they need someone senior” becomes a stronger in-house marketer, and better numbers. “Our head of marketing has just left” becomes no lost momentum: the right hire, properly onboarded. “Our new marketing head is still finding their feet” becomes they land faster, and last longer. “Our agency isn’t delivering, and we don’t know what good looks like” becomes the right partners, held to account. Results: 20 million views on one social campaign for a UK manufacturer; 50% more inbound enquiries and 30% more revenue for a consumer business; an early-stage tech company built from a standing start. 25+ years in marketing and business. Multiple exits. And a clear view of what investors want to see. We steer the marketing. You get back to running the business. Turn it around with pd. Pablo & Dave, hello@pabloanddave.com.

How we work

A handful of businesses at a time, so each one gets proper attention.

Hands-on or hands-off, whatever the job needs. Sometimes we do the work ourselves, sometimes we run the people and agencies who do. Usually it’s a bit of both, across strategy, brand, performance marketing and content.

We build things that keep working without us: a plan, a team, suppliers held to account.
