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 40-second film. Plenty of marketing. Nobody steering it. “We spend a fortune and I’ve no idea what’s working” turns into one plan, spend tied to results. “We’ve just raised, and I’m still doing the marketing myself” turns into a marketing function that stands on its own. “Our head of marketing has just left” turns into no lost momentum. “Our agency isn’t delivering” turns into the right partners, held to account. We steer the marketing. You get back to running the business. 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.

Recent work

25+ years in marketing and business, multiple exits, and a clear view of what investors want to see.
