Greetings, I'm James. I appreciate your interest.In my career, I've worn many hats - entrepreneur, marketer, consultant, and agency owner - all of which have lent me a distinct perspective on businesses and their growth paths. At the helm of Digital Group Media, a renowned and award-winning marketing agency in Birmingham, I've honed my expertise in brand development, digital marketing, and business management over the last 14 years. While my team and I have had the privilege of working with a plethora of clients across the UK, I've also leveraged these experiences to identify and pursue broader opportunities - namely business investment and acquisition, an extension of my entrepreneurial passion.As I continue this exciting trajectory, I am looking to connect with owners of established businesses who may be considering their own next steps in their careers. I’m especially interested in speaking with the owners of West Midlands based businesses, preferably in the Light Industrial sector (engineering, manufacturing, packaging, metal, industrial process control, etc). I have extensive experience with those sectors and a proven track record in successfully growing those types of businesses to achieve record results.Networking might not always be my most active pursuit, but meaningful connections are. So, if you've received a connection request, rest assured it was intentional, and aimed at fostering substantial and collaborative relationships. In my downtime, you'll either catch me doing Dad & family stuff, attempting to relive the glory of my youth spent DJ'ing & producing Drum & Bass (big up the Junglist Massive!), perfecting my BBQ skills or learning to fly in VR.I welcome conversations about investment, mutual growth and business opportunities. Let's discover what we can build together.
