David Taylor-Smith has spent nine years working inside fast-growing businesses across Australia, the US, and Europe. Not advising from the sidelines. Actually running growth: building acquisition programmes, managing teams, and being accountable for revenue results.
David has worked across the full spectrum of business: startups finding their first customers, small businesses competing in crowded markets, scale-ups accelerating into new territories, and public companies running hundreds of millions in recurring revenue. That breadth matters. Growth strategy looks different depending on where you are, and David has done it at each stage. That includes four years as Consumer Growth Lead at hipages (ASX-listed), one of Australia's largest online marketplaces, growth work at a US-based marketplace at Series D stage, and deep experience across SaaS, fintech, e-commerce, and local services. Reforge alumni. Techstars network mentor.
At Wizard Creative Labs, the client list stays deliberately small. When you work with Wizard, you work directly with David. No account manager. No junior running your campaigns while someone senior takes the credit. Direct access to someone who has done this work at serious scale, from day one. For a business owner, that means strategic thinking you would normally only access inside a much larger company. For a startup or tech team, it means growth work grounded in real operator experience, not agency playbooks.
David covers SEO, Google Ads, product-led growth, retention strategy, conversion optimisation, and full-funnel growth marketing for startups, scale-ups, and local businesses across Australia and globally. Western Sydney roots. Over 20 years of martial arts, with international representation for Australia. If you want a marketing partner genuinely invested in your results, start with a conversation.
