Below are selected case studies highlighting specific project outcomes:

Audits and Healthchecks
My Healthcheck provides an analysis of an organisation’s current digital proficiency, identifying opportunites in digital tools, processes and performance.
Providing this insight to clients helps see where to focus and then evaluate where there are gaps in their capabilities.

Delivering Uplifting Experiences that Change Hearts, Minds and our World
Founded and successfully scaled Copper into a thriving digital agency, driving significant client growth and fundraising success for diverse clients.
Key Successes
• Fundraising Excellence: Directly supported campaigns raising over £35M for charities and organisations.
• CX Mastery: Delivered targeted email programmes achieving over 100 million engagements, enhancing supporter loyalty and growth.
• Brand & Content Strategy: Implemented comprehensive brand refreshes, strategic repositioning, and engaging creative content, significantly boosting client profiles and market reach.
• Supporter Growth & Retention: Consistently increased donor retention and supporter acquisition through strategic marketing initiatives.
Reaching New Audiences
Amnesty approached Copper to develop the proposition, creative and build the assets for a UK Government match funded appeal.
Copper developed a series ads which were rolled out across various display ad formats and posts for social.
The campaign achieved well above its target bringing in over £800,000. A thorough testing strategy saw a 75% uplift in average response rate, which in turn also saw a 28% uplift in average gift.
Building Inspiring Experiences
Designing and optimising better experiences often come from understanding data and testing. For MNDA we defined their digital skills needs, redesigned fundraisers’ digital journeys, and ran a series of donor appeals.
For World Vision we built a dynamic and highly personalised welcome experience for new supporters which reduced attrition by 20%.
My Other Interests
"Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm, and harmony."
Wine Experience Portal
GetTasting allows tasting event and wine experience hosts to list their wine event. I built this following taking a WSET wine qualification and seeing a lack of consolidated wine experiences and resources.
"It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves"
As a keen mountain biker I enjoy riding the trails around where I live in the UK and further abroad. I've participated in various competitive XC and downhill races as well as sportives. The thrill and challenge of riding down a hill at speed provide focus and clarity.
Formal Bio
A seasoned entrepreneur and digital marketing expert, Jason has a rich history of creating and leading successful ventures. As the founder and former Managing Director of digital fundraising agency Copper, he helped organisations build deeper relationships with their clients through creative and data-driven marketing solutions.
Under his leadership, Copper assisted clients in raising over £35 million and delivered over 100 million high-performing personalised emails to opted-in supporters.
With his extensive experience in digital marketing and a proven track record of driving engagement and growth, Jason now serves as the Chief Marketing Officer at Bumper, bringing his expertise to the forefront of the DeFi space.
Less Formal Bio
Don’t let the calm, considered and analytical facade fool you. Jason is the epitome of a bad boy. Not only does he revel in slamming the brakes of his mountain bike while at top speed to pull some of the finest stoppies you’ll ever see, but he’ll easily slam down a glass of Château Montelena Chardonnay as a chaser, right after downing a bottle of 2004 Château Angélus Bordeaux. Yeah, you heard that right... red ON white! Animal.
Jason might play hard but he’s all business when it comes to marketing stuff. Whether big brand or tech start-up, this guy lives and breathes brand messaging, focus groups, competitor analysis, and office high-fiving. Get in his way and he’ll silently get annoyed... and then proceed to deep dive into your motivations, behaviours, and trends. Beware.
Doing things since 2007.
