Your product is better than your brand.

I spent 15 years inside brands like Rip Curl and Cotton On. The big ones rarely win because their product is better. They win because a stranger gets it in three seconds.

Most small brands I look at don’t need a rebrand or another agency retainer. They need someone to tell them, plainly, what’s broken and what to fix first. That’s what this is.

I’ll tell you what your mates won’t.

I’m Calum. Former creative lead at Rip Curl, creative director at memobottle, senior designer at Cotton On. I’ve spent 15 years making brands look like they’re worth more. Every review is mine: I look, I record, I send it.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. No card, no call, no catch. Some people ask me to fix what I find. Most fix it themselves. Either way, the video’s yours.

Is it actually you, or AI?

It’s me. Software captures your site and keeps my notes in order so I can do more of these, but I look at every site and record every review myself.

Will you be harsh?

Honest, not rude. You’ll hear what a stranger thinks in the first few seconds, what’s working, and what I’d change first.

I don’t have a website yet.

Send your Instagram instead. I’ll review your profile, bio and grid the same way.

My site isn’t finished.

Send it anyway, and tell me in the note. It’s cheaper to fix things before launch than after.

Do you need my logins?

No. I only look at what your customers can see.

Will you share my video?

Never without your written OK. It’s sent to you privately.

Why only 15 a week?

Because I record each one myself. If this week is full, you’re first in line for next week.

What happens to my details?

I use them to make and send your review. You only get marketing emails if you tick the box. Full details in the privacy policy.
