About Us — Strategy One
Who We Are

Real Operators.Real Results.

We're not a marketing agency that's never run a business. We're business owners who built something, figured out what actually works, and now build the same systems for other people.

Meet The Team

Ashley Cannon — Co-Founder
Ashley Cannon
Co-Founder & Director

Ashley built his first business to £1.2 million in 24 months, scaling a team of over 250 staff. He then launched a second company and grew it to £30,000 a month in just three months. He knows what it takes to grow because he's done it — repeatedly, in hard industries, without shortcuts.

Giles
Co-Founder & Director

Giles built a martial arts academy that now runs across 10 locations with over 800 active students — growing consistently through strong marketing systems that run without him. He built the systems, trained the team, and stepped back. That's the model we replicate for every client.

What We've Built Together

Together, Ashley and Giles have helped clients generate over £2 million in new business in the last year alone. Not projected revenue. Not pipeline numbers. Actual revenue from real clients running real businesses.

We run around 40 active clients at any one time — service businesses, trades, coaches, consultants, and legal firms — all going through the same proven 12-week system: Meta ads, rapid lead calling, opt-in follow-up, appointment setting, CRM, and funnel builds.

We don't dabble. We don't promise magic. We build the machine, run it properly, and keep optimising until your pipeline is full.
