“The past six or seven months of 2025 have been absolutely amazing for us. We’re closing bigger deals, more deals — and Q2 of this year has been record breaking. Owen kept us focused and consistent so we got there much faster than if we’d been on our own.”

“Without Owen’s guidance, my progress would have been a lot slower. Having structured sessions, call reviews, and deal coaching every week has been invaluable.”

"Owen stepped in at a critical moment for UNE Partnerships after the sudden departure of our Head of Sales and Marketing. We were facing uncertainty with our sales team, inconsistent processes, and an over-reliance on external partners. From day one, Owen embedded himself into the team. He coached our course advisors, brought clarity to our CRM, and supported us through tough staffing decisions. He also guided us in the hiring of 1 new Head of Sales and Marketing and 2 new Course Advisors, providing a detailed handover document that has become central to our current strategy. Just as importantly, he helped us understand the importance of taking back control of our marketing IP — moving landing pages and data into our own HubSpot account, saving costs and ensuring we own our growth assets. Owen’s impact has been lasting. He didn’t just provide advice — he built systems, created onboarding processes, and coached our people so we can continue confidently without him. His support during this tricky period was invaluable, and UNE Partnerships is stronger because of it."

“Owen played a pivotal role in helping to stabilising UNE Partnerships sales team during a critical transition. His structured approach to sales systems, onboarding, and team coaching created the foundation I needed to step confidently into my new role as Director. Owen’s guidance ensured our processes were clear, our tools optimised, and our new hires supported from day one. His mentorship and collaborative style didn’t just bridge a gap, it set our team up for long-term success. I’m grateful for the clarity and advice his input brought to both UNE Partnerships and my leadership journey. Thanks Owen”.

In my role at Practical Systems, I engaged Owen McDonald to conduct market research and develop strategies in a complex and crowded marketplace. He provided an honest appraisal of our product in comparison to the market, the feasibility of its growth, and the strategies most likely to appeal to the personas he helped define. Owen followed through from theory to application, working with us on the product offerings and advertising campaigns, including interpreting the data and adjusting the direction based on results. The business gained a great deal of valuable insight thanks to Owen's effort. I have since progressed from this business, but I can endorse Owen's high degree of expertise, enthusiasm, and professionalism. He has much to offer any organisation seeking to understand its customers.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Owen in various capacities over the last two years. He’s done a great job of deeply understanding Colfax’s business, clients, and service offering. Owen has been instrumental in developing our marketing and sales pipeline, bringing insight on business development strategies, as well as software and tools to help with automation.

Owen has been a pivotal member of our team, driving action across several areas of our business. Owen was able to look holistically at our organisation and its functions, sighting significant opportunities through automation whilst ensuring a consumer focus remained at the centre of our work. Through a process of research and consumer surveys, we gained insight into the appetite of our clients to utilise online systems. This successful migration to a new system has been a game changer for NECOM and propelled us into the future. Alongside system efficiencies, Owen and his team undertook a full brand review, cementing who we are and what we stand for. This process has led to a full brand refresh and the development of new marketing collateral and website development. Owen has been successful in making business efficiencies whilst revitalising our marketing strategy and vision. His strategic insights ensured we were continually moving forward and reaching new heights. I would highly recommend working with Owen and his team to anyone who is not afraid to push forward and gain results!
