Unleash Your
Digital Marketing Potential
with off the rock media
I’m Julian — I partner with small business leaders who feel overwhelmed by digital marketing opportunities. I help them to build strategies that deliver real results!
Over the years, I’ve led several successful small businesses and have been privileged enough to work with some well-known Scottish names, from Dr Suzanne Zeedyk, the Independent Care Review, The Wood Foundation and Adoption UK, to several politicians from across the political spectrum, including the Office of the First Minister of Scotland during Nicola Sturgeon’s leadership.
The Challenge I See Time and Again
I consistently hear the same story from the brilliant founders I meet: they are losing valuable business because they lack the time, specific skills, or cash flow required for a large-scale agency, which often comes with a prohibitive price tag. They are then left feeling disconnected from their vision and a critical part of their own business.
But what if you didn't have to choose between stagnation and a significant agency investment? What if you could become an empowered leader, take back control of your vision and lead your digital marketing with confidence?
A New Approach to Digital Marketing Growth
This is precisely why I created Digital Marketing School, Scotland's only coaching programme designed for small business leaders who are ready to elevate their digital marketing game.
Through flexible and structured coaching, available one-on-one or as part of a global group cohort, we will build a powerful digital marketing strategy that fits your schedule and delivers results.
And because I know that even the best plans can meet unexpected hurdles, I offer a unique commitment: I’m here to step in and help deliver the work myself if and when you need it.
Your journey to digital marketing clarity starts here. I invite you to explore the Digital Marketing School membership packages today to find the right path for you.
I look forward to connecting with you.
Julian Thomson | Founder and Creative Director

L.Donaldson Massage hired me to help him build his client base in Aberdeen. Lewis felt more was needed from his content to better serve his audience. By undertaking a complete audit of his website and social media, creating new content and optimising his website for SERPS, we were able to increase engagement by 25% and conversions by 10% within two months
Web Design

The project brief was to utilise code (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) to create a website that would attract potential mature students to study at RGU, Aberdeen, and write a report to justify design decisions. The website was then subsequently created using Adobe Dreamweaver.

I was hired to support the Australian Company, “A Wee Bit O’Scotland” to increase engagement on their socials and drive sales, both in-store and through their website. By working together to plan content through weekly discussions, and optimising the website for search, I was able to increase their exposure globally, whilst increasing sales and online engagement.
