Betts & Burton
About

The seniors are the work. That’s the model.

Betts & Burton is Nick Betts and Jake Burton, two senior B2B marketers who got tired of watching clients pay agency rates for junior output. So we built the consultancy we always wanted to hire.

How we think

Four things we won’t compromise on.

01

Senior, hands-on, full stop.

You always get Nick or Jake on the work, never a junior version of us. There is no bait-and-switch and no account manager layer.

02

Revenue is the only score.

Vanity metrics fund agencies. We get judged on qualified pipeline and conversions to revenue. Everything we build is measured against that.

03

Short engagements beat long retainers.

We’d rather solve the problem in 90 days and hand it back than run a forever-retainer that no-one questions.

04

Plain English over jargon.

If a 16-year-old wouldn’t understand it, we rewrite it. That goes for our strategy decks, our copy, and our invoices.

What you can expect

No fluff. Just senior work.

  • A 30-minute discovery call to test fit before anything is signed
  • Initial strategic positioning and diagnostic roadmapping included from day one
  • Weekly check-ins with whoever owns the work on your side
  • A clear handover plan from day one, never a retainer for retainer’s sake
  • Direct access to Nick and Jake with no middle layer
  • Plain-English reporting tied to pipeline and revenue
FAQs

About us, in plain English.

We spent years inside agencies and in-house roles watching seniors sell the work and juniors do it. We built the consultancy we would have wanted to hire.
We have collaborated on client work for years before formally launching the consultancy. The shorthand is real.
Functionally similar in many engagements. The difference is we also do the execution, combining strategy with our hands on the keyboard.
Occasionally, for specialist craft (design, dev, paid platform implementation). They work under our direction and you always know who is doing what.
