Hi, I’m Ben, the founder of Pirate Skills.

I created Pirate Skills to empower growth-driven startup teams to take their marketing to the next level. Through actionable strategies, real-world-tested playbooks, and a thriving community of founders and marketers, I guide early-stage startups, especially Heads of Growth and co-founders, towards aligned, data-driven strategies that truly work.

With 15 years of entrepreneurial experience and eight startups, I know firsthand that growth isn’t about guesswork or endless outsourcing. It’s about doing the right work, better and faster. Whether it’s crafting a resonating brand story, building a high-converting funnel, or mastering analytics, I help you break free from over-reliance on agencies and take control of your growth. Whatever your pace, bootstrapped and sustainable or sprinting toward Series A, I’ve been there, and I’m here to help you thrive.

Through workshops, playbooks, courses, and the Pirate Skills community, I’ll help you build a clear growth roadmap and optimize every step of your customer journey, from generating leads to nurturing long-term relationships. Together, we’ll align your data, traffic channels, and team efforts to turn confusion into clarity, ensuring every decision drives measurable and impactful results.

Pirate Skills is built on my passion for independence and experimentation. It’s about enabling founders and their teams to build businesses they’re proud of, where customers love what you offer, and you love how you’ve built it. That’s what we do here: we build without limits.

So, why join the navy when you can be a pirate? Join me on this journey, and let’s master growth together.

AARRR!

Ben
