Then
“We’d love to make the video, but…” “We don’t have the budget right now.” “We can’t justify the costs.” “Maybe next quarter.”
FUNFAIR’s founder and one-person marketing department
I’m Graham. Pleased to meet you!
I’m a senior marketer with more than 20 years’ experience. Agency, in-house and independent. Strategy, creative and delivery, all in one place. AI didn’t teach me marketing. It changed what I could do with everything I’d already learned.
Smart marketing
For most of my career, the ambition has been bigger than the resources available.
Tight budgets taught me to prioritise. Small teams taught me to be resourceful. AI fundamentally changed what was feasible.
Advantage
Then the possible got bigger.
Now
Prototype quickly. Explore more creative directions. Automate repetitive work. Build more in-house. Spend more time on judgement and ideas.
FUNFAIR Studio exists because one experienced marketer can now make far more possible than used to be economically realistic.
FUNFAIR promise 01
The customer comes first
Start with what the customer needs, not what the channel, trend or algorithm says you should be doing.
FUNFAIR promise 02
Advice should be constructive
No finger-pointing. I understand why things are the way they are, then work out what should happen next.
FUNFAIR promise 03
Progress matters more than purity
The perfect plan that never happens is less useful than the very good one that actually gets done.
FUNFAIR promise 04
Marketing should be fun
Good marketing can still have energy, personality and ideas people actually want to notice.
FUNFAIR promise 05
Marketing should be fair
I use AI to make better work possible, not to mislead people, fake expertise or pretend something is real when it isn’t.
FUNFAIR promise 06
AI outputs need human judgement
AI can generate options. Experience decides what is useful, appropriate and worth putting into the world.
Experience
FUNFAIR is new. The experience behind it isn’t.
More than two decades of marketing experience, across different sectors, different kinds of organisation and both sides of the agency relationship. Enough history to know what matters and enough curiosity to keep finding better ways to do it.
Years in marketing
Agency and client side. Public and private sector. B2B and B2C.
Senior marketer, start to finish
The person discussing the problem is the person doing the thinking.
Marketing plans developed
For businesses with different customers, budgets and ambitions.
Creative projects
I’m creative, even when nobody is paying me to be.
I’m interested in branding, design, pop culture, music, storytelling and technology. Projects include managing a label of AI pop music artists and self-publishing fantasy, serialised drama and children’s stories.
Let’s get creativeWhen you go to the FUNFAIR, you get me as your guide.
No account manager. No junior team hidden behind a senior face. No handover after the sales meeting. The person you speak to is the person doing the thinking and directing the work.
Let’s get this show on the road
