Buildingsystemsthat last.
AI, marketing, and operations consulting from operators who’ve built and exited, not advisors who’ve watched from the sidelines.
01 / What We Do
Three ways we move the needle.
Watson/McKenny helps ambitious companies grow. Founders Peter Watson and Bradley McKenny have multiple exits behind them, and our global team brings experience from Klarna, Spotify and more. We build growth systems, solve the operational hurdles that hold businesses back and implement AI where it makes a real difference.
AI Implementation
We embed AI into your operations where it creates real leverage. Not presentations. Production systems that compound.
Go-to-Market & Growth
Positioning, distribution, and narrative strategy from operators who built an award-winning agency, wrote the book on influence, and advise some of Europe’s biggest brands.
Operational Restructuring
Strip the inefficiency. Rebuild the operating system. The same approach that took a business out of administration and turned it into a 7-figure EBITDA operation.
02 / Track Record
Real operators. Real exits.
Administration to Market Leader
Acquired a failing business from administrators. Rebuilt the operating system, implemented technology, and scaled it to the market leader in its category. 7-figure EBITDA. Multiple industry awards. 1,000+ five-star reviews.
Fastest-Growing Agency
Built one of the fastest-growing digital marketing agencies in the UK from a university dorm. Startups 100 listed twice. Grew to 70+ clients including national charities, political parties, and top 40 accountancy firms. Exited.
Pharma Innovation
Co-founded a pharmaceutical innovation company from zero. Grew it into one of the strongest players in its market. Exited via cash sale.
Active Buyer & Investor
Active buyers and investors in distressed businesses. Experienced in acquiring underperforming companies and turning them around with modern technology, operational restructuring, and growth strategy.
Previously Advised
Plus dozens more across retail, professional services, technology, and nonprofit sectors.
03 / Who We Are
Built together. From day one.
Peter Watson
Pete has been building businesses since he was 16. His first venture was featured in The Sunday Times. He went on to co-found one of the UK’s fastest-growing agencies, write a bestselling book on marketing, and build and exit companies across advertising, pharma innovation, and digital finance. He’s since bought a business out of administration and turned it into the highest-rated firm in its industry.
Bradley McKenny
Brad has co-founded every business alongside Pete since university. From scaling an agency to 70+ clients, to leading operations across multiple exits, Brad is the operator behind the operator. He brings deep expertise in scaling businesses, building systems, and executing with precision.
Recognition
Every company we’ve built, we’ve built together.
04 / How We Work
We don’t consult.
We operate.
We embed with your team.
Not above them. Not from a slide deck. In the business, where the work happens.
We move fast.
Because we’ve built this before. Across pharma, advertising, property, tech, and Web3.
Every engagement has a scope, timeline, and measurable outcome.
No retainers that drift. No ambiguity.
We walk away when the work is done.
This isn’t about dependency. It’s about acceleration.
05 / Contact
Let’s talk.
If you’re serious about growth, we should have a conversation.
