James Bradford
Turning Early Traction into Scalable, Measurable Growth
From fast-paced eCommerce launches to full-stack marketing transformations, my work sits at the intersection of strategy, systems, and scalable growth. I collaborate with founders and leadership teams who’ve built strong foundations — and are now ready to take things further. Whether it’s refining marketing strategy, improving operations, or integrating AI-driven processes, I support growth with clarity, structure, and momentum.
With over 30 years of experience across the UK, Europe, North America, Japan, and Southeast Asia, I help SMEs and start-ups move from tactical marketing to scalable systems. My strength lies in aligning strategy with execution — turning traction into repeatable growth.
In the DTC space, I’ve enabled brands to break through plateaus and scale profitably using automation, martech, and funnel optimization — without adding unnecessary complexity. I’ve built lifecycle frameworks that convert, campaign engines that scale, and systems teams can manage in-house.
At i3 International, I helped transform a siloed sales and marketing operation into a unified growth engine — generating $2.7M in new revenue while eliminating $1.8M in waste. At Bradford by Design, I’ve led DTC brands to 3x seasonal revenue gains through AI segmentation and lean campaign design.
But success isn’t just about metrics — it’s about momentum. I mentor internal teams, embed scalable systems, and help leadership build the infrastructure needed for sustainable expansion.
At Bradford Solutions, I support SMEs in building integrated, efficient marketing operations that drive sustained growth and measurable performance.
