Background

About Dan Knowlton

In 2017, my brother and I accidentally discovered a marketing approach that now generates millions in trackable revenue for some of the world’s biggest brands.Fresh out of uni and one year into a corporate job, I moved back in with my parents and started a marketing agency with my big bro, from our parents’ spare room.Tired of pushy, over-salesy marketing, we began creating ‘funny videos’ to promote ourselves.They made people laugh…but didn’t bring in customers.So we restructured them, injecting clarity, strategy, and clear messaging into content people actually wanted to watch.It worked.It really worked!Turns out, combining sales-focused strategy with creative, relatable content that’s impossible to ignore is a winning formula.We applied the same thinking to small local brands and it worked. It actually worked!So, we went bigger. Built an in-house creative team. Moved into a real office. And started supporting amazing brands like Adobe, Wahl, Sunny D, Mr Freeze, Marvel x SafeJawz, Boston Consulting Group, BBC Storyworks, Channel 4, and Constant Contact.Our approach has evolved, but the mission hasn’t changed: get results with campaigns people actually enjoy consuming.Here are just a few results we’ve helped generate:1. £3M+ in tracked B2C e-commerce sales2. £1M+ contract for a B2B brand3. Product stocked in a top-5 UK supermarket4. National press coverage5. Global TV & social campaign shot in BahamasA Growth Director from a global brand we helped roll out the TV & social campaign for in four territories said:“You take a risk going with an agency that feels a little bit smaller… but it’s one that’s paid off.”“I felt 0% stress, which has never happened before.”Feedback like that makes the long nights and 10-year rollercoaster of growing Knowlton worth every second.I live for making our clients happy.Sounds cheesy, but it’s true.QUICKFIRE Q & AWho is Dan Knowlton?Co-founder of Knowlton.
