About
Sam’s career has revolved around finding unique and engaging ways to connect brands with their target audience.
His early experiences of promoting the Beach Break Live student music festival ignited an interest in helping brands create unforgettable experiences for their customers. Sam took this spirit to Seed Marketing as New Business Director to win £1 million of new business, propel the agency’s growth to the next level. He then moved to Social Chain where he helped scale the business across three markets and 200+ staff, rapidly getting promoted to Managing Director at Social Chain USA, with the company eventually going to IPO on the German stock exchange.
With over ten years of experience successfully launching global agencies, in 2018 Sam decided to build his own, with the intention of driving the KPI that matters most for brands: sales.
Buddy Media Group is thriving under his leadership, inspiring a passionate team of data insight experts, performance marketers, and social media and influencer strategists, to help brands around the world with their acquisition and retention objectives. The company can count now leading players in the technology, entertainment, fashion, hospitality and alcohol sectors as key clients.
In his spare time, Sam loves to travel and escape to the ocean. A Cornwall native, he is never happier than when surfing the waves.
