The short version

He writes a weekly newsletter, publishes original operating frameworks, and runs a working research area on AI-era trust and exposure.

Background

Rob's career began in marketing and growth in 2002. Since then he has built growth engines for funded startups, founder-led companies, and public enterprises, with work spanning Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, and other markets. Over time that work widened from marketing and demand into broader operating, strategic, and venture-building roles, though the core question has stayed the same: how something finds its market and grows. His operating background includes growth and demand generation at Embroker, revenue leadership at Certn, and co-founding VonClaro. His areas of depth include full-funnel growth, customer acquisition cost and lifetime value, marketing attribution, demand generation, and generative engine optimisation.

What he writes and thinks about

Rob publishes writing and The Tuesday Briefing, a weekly newsletter on full-funnel growth. He develops named operating frameworks in his Field Notes, including the Builder-Commentator Gap, the Exposure Economy, Intent Is the New Demographic, and the Canadian Opportunity Thesis. His Exposure Intelligence Lab is an ongoing study of AI-era trust, impersonation risk, reputation exposure, and commercial signal detection. His broader worldview is set out in What I Believe. He also publishes free marketing tools for operators.
