Hello, I'm Sean Makin

I’m a freelance marketing consultant based in Scotland, helping businesses bring clarity, focus, and momentum to their marketing.

Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with organisations across a wide range of sectors, particularly technical, engineering, scientific, and manufacturing industries. My experience spans branding, demand generation, digital marketing, CRM, content strategy, and business growth.

I specialise in turning complex products, services, and ideas into clear, compelling marketing that generates commercial results.

Unlike larger agencies, I work directly with every client, providing honest advice, practical recommendations, and hands-on support when required.

Whether you’re looking to refine your marketing strategy, improve performance, strengthen your brand, or generate more leads, I’d be happy to discuss how I can help.
