ABOUT GOOLE DIGITAL
A local business, run by a local person
No head office. No account managers. Just someone on Carlisle Street who genuinely understands what running a small business actually feels like.
THE STORY
How we got here
For most of my career I worked in logistics and supply chain — analysing data, spotting inefficiencies, building dashboards, and managing projects for some fairly large organisations. The last few years of that were spent working from home, managing projects across Asia Pacific for a global company, without ever leaving the house.
After six years of that, I needed something different. I needed people. So my wife and I opened a shop.
What started as a clothing repairs business became two shops on Carlisle Street. Being part of the local community means you get to know people, and getting to know people means you end up having all sorts of conversations — not just about what brought them to the door in the first place.
That’s really where Goole Digital came from. Not a business plan, but a pattern — and one that seems to work.
THE BACKGROUND
What I actually know how to do
Data & Analytics
Making sense of numbers
BSc in Mathematics. Years building Power BI dashboards, forecasting models, and reporting tools for logistics businesses — translating complex data into something people can actually use to make decisions.
Process & Improvement
Spotting what's not working
Six Sigma Black Belt training. Delivered continuous improvement projects across warehousing, transport, and finance — finding the thing that’s quietly costing money or time, and fixing it.
Web & Digital
Building things that work online
Built and run multiple websites — WooCommerce shops, WordPress directories, static business sites. Handle social media, content creation, AI image tools, and scheduling — for our own businesses, every day.
People & Business
Understanding how businesses work
Presented to boards. Negotiated contracts. Managed teams. Worked across retail, manufacturing, and logistics supply chains. The practical experience of knowing how organisations actually function — not just in theory.

WHY LOCAL MATTERS
Same street. Same challenges.
There are plenty of digital agencies out there. Most of them are fine at what they do. But they’ve never had a quiet Monday wondering if it’s worth opening, or dealt with a street closure that wipes out three weeks of footfall.
We have. We’re here. And when you come and talk to us, you’re talking to the same person who built the website, writes the posts, and opens up the shop in the morning.
That's not a limitation. That's the whole point.
