A short, honest bio and an explanation of how the founder of a 2026 startup intends to earn your trust — with senior attention, plain language and a bias for measurement.
The founder
Short bio, no padding
I'm {{FOUNDER_NAME}}, founder of Topic Hatch. I've spent my working life on the commercial side of B2B marketing: running campaigns, building landing pages, wiring up tracking, and sitting in the meetings where marketing and sales argue about which leads are real.
I am not going to pad this page with invented decades or a list of logos I cannot show you. This agency is new in 2026. What I can offer is direct, senior attention and a working method I have seen fix the same set of problems over and over: spend running ahead of measurement, channels chosen on instinct, and reporting that nobody trusts.
Topic Hatch exists to do that work in a different order — instrument, agree, build, then optimise in the open. If that sounds like the kind of partner you have been looking for, I would genuinely like to talk.
Why Topic Hatch
Why start an agency in 2026?
Because the same problem keeps showing up everywhere, and it is fixable. B2B teams are not short of channels or tools. They are short of a partner who treats measurement as the job rather than an afterthought, and who is willing to say when something is not working.
The agency model I had seen most often was built for scale, not for accountability: a senior person wins the work, a junior team runs it, and the numbers get dressed up at the end of the month. That is a frustrating place to be a client.
What I wanted to build instead
A small, senior, remote team that instruments the funnel first, reports in plain language, and makes leaving easy. Month-to-month terms are not a marketing line; they are how we keep ourselves honest. If we are not earning our place, you should be able to walk away in 30 days.
That constraint forces a different kind of agency. It means every engagement has to prove its value continuously, and it means the founder stays close to the work.
How I work
Four habits I bring to every engagement
I start with the numbers you already have
Before recommending anything, I want to see what your last 90 days of spend actually produced, and whether you can trust it.
I write things down
Strategy lives in a document you own, not in my head. If you ever leave, the plan stays with you.
I make the trade-offs explicit
Budget, speed and certainty rarely all max out at once. My job is to show you the trade-off, not to pretend it does not exist.
I tell you the uncomfortable thing early
Bad news does not improve with age. You will hear problems while there is still time to fix them.
In practice
What I do day to day
On any given week I am likely to be reviewing campaign data, writing or editing the strategy, briefing content and creative, checking tracking after a site change, and on a call with a client unpicking why one channel is outperforming another.
I stay hands-on deliberately. It is the only way to keep the advice honest, and it is why our scopes stay specific rather than turning into vague retainers that are hard to measure.
- Own the measurement plan and the definitions behind it
- Set channel strategy and budget allocation
- Review performance weekly and adjust the plan
- Present the monthly read-out and answer hard questions
- Keep learning in public through our blog
If I cannot explain what we did and why in plain language, I do not understand it well enough yet.

Questions for a founder-led agency
What it means in practice when the person accountable for your results is also the person doing the work.
For founding clients, the founder is involved in strategy and review on an ongoing basis. As the team grows, the day-to-day lead is named in your scope, but the founder stays close to the work and accountable for quality.
The short, honest version is on this page. We have not padded it with invented decades or borrowed credentials — you will get a clear account of the experience behind the agency and the way it shapes how we work.
Past a certain size, no — which is why we stay deliberately small and add senior specialists rather than layers of management. If we cannot serve you well, we will tell you instead of stretching.
Yes. For strategy reviews and quarterly resets, that is normal. We would rather have the person accountable for the work in the room.
