Hello, I'm Jason Suttie.

I'm an experienced senior marketing and brand lead, focused on delivering better customer experiences.

I thrive working alongside high performing teams to deliver better experiences to their customers and users driving continual transformation and, ultimately, business results.

With over 20 years working in marketing I've gained solid understanding of what great experiences look like, and what the barriers are to making them happen.

Experiences are what stay with the customer after an interaction, and will stay with them often for a long time after the interaction. They will influence decisions, and impact lifetime value.

My experience of working with brands and companies of different sizes and shapes has broadened my understanding of the internal and external challenges that organisations face.

KEY SKILLS

Marketing, Process & Product Optimisation

I'm a big believer in the value of incremental gains. Auditing existing products, processes & campaigns can help identify improvement opportunities. Building out a clear plan, considering team resources, to implement continual changes creating better outcomes.

KEY SKILLS

Brand Framework Development

Consistency and clarity in branding are crucial for marketing success. I've developed brand and design frameworks across various industries allowing me to delve into what users respond to and what drives outcomes. Ensuring a brand remains relevant and engaging, leads to stronger connections with your audience and better overall results.

KEY SKILLS

Customer & User Experience

These days anything less than a perfect experience can turn a happy customer into a troublesome critic. This starts at first interaction and extends through the lifecycle. Ensuring all parts of the customer experience are thoroughly planned and executed is vital to success.

KEY SKILLS

Digital Marketing

I have a broad knowledge of executing digital marketing campaigns across channels, technologies and platforms. I've got a particular interest in data driven decision-making. Interpreting data and turning it into actionable insights whether across brand or driving conversion and retention.

I joined Bumper at inception as a co-founder and CMO leading the full spectrum of marketing activity from brand through to user experience.

Consulting

I consulted for a range of clients across education, retail, tech, fundraising and crypto on marketing and business growth. Honing brand identities and optimising marketing performance.

Consulting

Audits and Healthchecks

My Healthcheck provides an analysis of an organisation’s current digital proficiency, identifying strengths and weaknesses in digital tools, processes and performance.

The framework is a series of questions across 6 areas, each area with 4 questions, and each question with 5 sentence-based answers. So 30 questions and 120 possible answers.

Providing this insight to clients to see where they need to focus and then evaluate where there are gaps and what’s missing in their capabilities.

Consulting

INDX

As contract CMO at INDX, I oversaw digital marketing budget deployment, tracked ROI, enhanced customer experience, built brand awareness, and drove organisational change in social media and digitization.

I worked closely with senior leadership, delivering strategies to maintain investor relationships as they moved toward the launch of their masternode fund.

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

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.

MNDA and WORLD VISION

Building Better 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%.

I'm a keen mountain biker and 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.
