What does Relay actually do?

Relay is a fractional growth partner. I help businesses get more customers, convert more of the interest they already have and bring people back. I find the biggest lever, run experiments across ads, websites, email, SMS and even physical letters, and measure what works.

Who will we actually work with?

Me, Max. No account managers or handoffs: the person who diagnoses the problem is the person doing the work. For highly specialised jobs I bring in trusted collaborators, and I’ll tell you when I do.

Who do you work with?

Businesses where customers book, visit and come back: wellness and recovery clinics, gyms, spas, aesthetics and hospitality. Usually established, with real customers, but nobody in-house who owns growth.

How is this different from an agency?

You get a hands-on growth function, not a list of deliverables. I focus on one growth problem at a time, test it properly and judge it on your numbers, without the overhead of a bigger team.

Do we need new software or AI?

Usually not. I’m tool-agnostic: I build around what you already use, from WhatsApp and Gmail to HubSpot, Calendly or Stripe, and bring in AI or new tools only where they earn their place. If something really needs replacing, I’ll explain why first.

What does it cost?

Most clients start with a Growth Sprint: two to four weeks to find one opportunity, launch one or two experiments and measure early results. If it works, we carry on monthly with a defined scope. The price is agreed before we start.

What happens on the first call?

It’s 30 minutes with me, with no obligation. You tell me what’s getting in the way. I’ll tell you where I’d look first, and whether I’m the right person to help.
