A little introduction
Hello, I’m Daniel Smith.
I’m a Chartered marketing professional, currently residing in Brundall, Norfolk, UK. In 2024, I obtained the L7 Marketing Leadership Programme qualification from the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) via Cambridge Marketing College.
I’ve spent most of my career building brands, with a keen interest in B2B marketing – especially SMEs.
After 10 years working for a variety of businesses, from agencies to tech start-ups, I decided to start my own business. In 2016, I co-founded a prop-tech start-up called JaeVee with my brother and was it’s CTO until August 2020. At that time, I decided to take a step back from the company to focus more time on my young family.
After 6 months, I had a great opportunity to market a reputable local MSP, Computer Service Centre. Within 2 years the company was purchased by a larger MSP, where I played a key role in the company’s rebrand to Acora One. After a year of Corporatism, with less and less focus on customers, I decided to move on. Since then, I have been working with an up and coming MSP in the area, Beacon IT.
Aside from spending time with my family, I love being creative and football. An odd combination (I know), but I those be my passions.

Community work
When I’m not doing client work and spending time with the family, I like to dabble in a bit of community work. Along with a number of other parents in 2021, I co-founded a grassroots football club called Brundall Bolts. I’m the current Chair and U13 girls team coach. I also coach our Mini Bolts sessions for Y1 and Y2 students.
Since the launch of our first U9 team in January 2022, the Club has grown to 11 teams, 200+ children and 40+ volunteers. We also run a Women’s team too.
