We focus on tailored work that will help you get the best results as quickly as possible.

Forget being a number.

We’re an agile boutique and we have no desire to manage a large portfolio.
We build long-term relationships with businesses and entrepreneurs we feel strongly aligned to.

Forget siloed thinking.

We specialise in integrating with existing teams and driving alignment across organisations.
We work as effectively with tech and data functions as we do creative departments.

How we work

Our data-led strategies are driven by a consistent, proven approach that’s delivered exceptional results across a multitude of industries.

1) Discovery
Every initiative we work on begins with a thorough discovery process, incorporating: preliminary research and data analysis, surveys, and meetings with stakeholders.

The objective is to identify and isolate business issues. As part of this, we establish: what data is readily available, and what additional data should be recorded, tracked and reported.

2) Immersion

Once we have a good foundational understanding, and know exactly what problems we’re aiming to solve, we undergo an exhaustive process of brand and product immersion, incorporating more extensive research, data analysis, and surveying.

3) Strategy

Outcomes from our exhaustive discovery and immersion processes inform the development of a bespoke integrated strategy, designed to incisively address key business issues at scale.

4) Iteration

Data analysis, testing and learnings are fed back into the relevant teams and functions to drive ongoing improvements in process and performance.

Hi, I'm Tim.

I’m the founder of atyp.

I was first exposed to digital marketing 20+ years ago, when I established a content network in the early days of blogging — helping businesses grow has been my obsession ever since! I’ve been privileged to collaborate with many incredible people, working on transformational strategies for major brands:

To name just a few. Most recently, I helped grow JEFF Fitness from a tiny startup to a global community with customers in 73 countries! I also co-founded a ceramics brand, Calico Ceramics, with my wife in 2018, and we’ve grown revenue by 176% over the past year. I’ve worked extensively with and for agencies, across a wide range of industries — much as I’ve enjoyed many of my experiences, I’ve grown frustrated by the same old inefficiencies and misalignment.

Which brings me here, where my mission at atyp is to work better for you. I’m excited to do things differently!
