Meet Pete, the big-agency marketer helping local businesses grow
Hi, I'm Pete, founder of Bloom Street Digital, and a North Hampshire local.
I've spent 15+ years in digital marketing, having worked at WPP Media, Omnicom Media Group and Dentsu Aegis Network, running digital strategy and advertising for some of the world's biggest brands. Then I moved into ad tech at Index Exchange and Captify, the companies behind how online ads are bought and sold. So I've seen advertising from both sides: how agencies spend the money, and how the platforms take it.

Why I started Bloom Street Digital
I kept thinking about the family-run businesses and local entrepreneurs who are the true cornerstone of our communities: the ones creating local jobs and giving our towns and villages their character. They rarely get the same calibre of expertise that large corporations take for granted, simply because big-agency thinking doesn't usually come at small-business prices.
I founded Bloom Street Digital to change that. Local businesses deserve the same calibre of marketing expertise as the world's biggest brands, without the price tag that usually comes with it.
That local connection matters to me. I'm dedicated to helping businesses across Hampshire and Berkshire grow their online presence and, ultimately, their revenue. From digital strategy to campaign management, reporting and training, I bring big-agency knowledge to every project, sized to fit the budgets and needs of local businesses.
Being local isn't just where I'm based - it's how I work. I believe the best partnerships are built in person, through honest conversations and a shared understanding of your goals.
I'm not here to overwhelm you with jargon, or lock you into contracts that don't serve you. I'm here to guide you, step by step, as a true partner in your growth.

What makes working with me different
I'm client-first, always. That means clear pricing that fits your business, rolling monthly with no lock-in contracts, complete transparency on where your budget is going and what it's achieving, and a genuine commitment to being there when you need me.
That's why I work personally with every client, from our first conversation right through the full lifecycle of working together. I take on a small number of businesses at any one time, so every client gets a genuinely high-quality, hands-on service.
So whether you need a one-off strategy, guidance or someone to take the whole thing off your hands, I'd love to help. The easiest place to start is a free digital audit: you'll see what's working, what isn't and what to fix first, whether we work together or not.
Outside work, I'm usually on the padel court or hunting down North Hampshire's best coffee. If you'd rather talk it through first, the first one's on me.
