How we work

Strategy is only useful if someone builds it.

Most consultants stop at the recommendation. We keep going: build the campaigns, automations, and reporting, then run them until the numbers move.

  1. 01

    Diagnose

    We start with the numbers: where customers come from, what they cost, where the funnel leaks, and which manual processes eat your team’s time.

  2. 02

    Build

    Then we build what’s missing: campaigns, landing pages, automations, AI workflows, dashboards, and integrations. Hands-on, not handed off.

  3. 03

    Run and improve

    We run the system, measure it, and keep improving it. When it’s time to hand over, your team gets documentation and a playbook, not a dependency.

Matthew Bell, Founder & CEO, Head of Strategy at Bell Interactive
Who you'll work with

Founder-led. Hands-on by design.

Bell Interactive is led by Matthew Bell, an operator who has spent more than twenty years growing companies from the inside and as a partner: launching and scaling Shutterstock’s affiliate program to a $10M annual run rate, building AppSumo’s affiliate channel into a top 3 acquisition source, and shipping the interactive microsite that sold out Netflix’s Poguelandia festival in a day.

Every engagement is led by Matt directly. That means one person who can set the strategy, build the campaigns, automations, and reporting behind it, and stay accountable for the numbers.

FAQs

Questions we get asked

How engagements work, who we work with, and what to expect. If your question isn't here, ask.

Still have questions?

Send a note and we'll respond promptly.

What do you actually do?

Four things, usually in combination: growth strategy, performance marketing, AI and automation, and data and analytics. In practice that covers paid media, affiliate and partnership programs, lead generation, and social, plus the workflows, dashboards, integrations, and internal tools that make those channels run efficiently. The common thread is measurable growth: more customers, lower acquisition cost, and less manual work.

What types of companies do you work with?

Mostly B2C, B2B, and tech companies, from funded startups to established brands. The best fit is a company with a product that already sells and a team that needs more leverage. We've worked with Shutterstock, AppSumo, Natural Cycles, Treehouse, Aaptiv, and Blinkist, and with smaller businesses that need senior help without a full-time hire.

How do engagements work?

Most start with a short diagnostic: a look at your channels, funnel, data, and operations to find the highest-leverage opportunities. From there we agree on a scope. Some clients need a defined project, like launching an affiliate program, building a reporting layer, or automating a sales process. Others want an ongoing partnership where we run and improve the growth engine month to month. Projects often turn into ongoing work once the first results land.

Project or ongoing engagement, which is right for us?

If you have a specific outcome with a clear finish line, a project. If you want a senior operator embedded with your team who owns results over time, an ongoing engagement. We'll recommend one after the first conversation, and we'll tell you if we're not the right fit.

Do you do the work yourselves, or just advise?

Both. We set the strategy, and we build what it needs: campaigns, landing pages, automations, integrations, dashboards, and AI workflows. You get an operator who has run these systems inside real businesses, not a deck and a handoff.

How do you measure success?

By the numbers the business already cares about: customer acquisition cost, return on ad spend, conversion rates, pipeline and revenue by channel, and, for automation work, hours saved and errors removed. We agree on targets up front, report transparently, and adjust when the data says to.

Which platforms and tools do you work with?

The major ad platforms, affiliate networks and SaaS platforms such as Impact, CJ, and ShareASale, every major social platform (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, and Pinterest), and the analytics, CRM, and automation tools your team already uses. We're tool-agnostic and comfortable building custom integrations when off-the-shelf doesn't fit.

How do we get started?

Send a note through the contact form or email hello@bellinteractive.com. We'll set up a call to understand your business, goals, and current setup, then come back with a recommended scope. No pitch deck, no pressure.
