Concrete over conceptual
Every recommendation comes with a clear what, when, and why. No vague best-practices, no decks full of jargon.
I'm Bart Haagmans. I help ambitious online stores grow through SEO, GEO, CRO, and the kind of hands-on work most consultants would rather hand off. Here's how I got here.
I graduated as a Master in Business Economics in 2018, with honors. The program gave me a broad understanding of how businesses operate, plus the analytical and strategic thinking that still shapes how I tackle marketing today.
My first role was in Category Management. That's where I learned how online retail actually works: supplier negotiations, product launches, range optimization, and a lot of time spent next to the marketing team. The seed for what I do now.
By 2022 I knew I wanted to go deeper. I completed a postgraduate in Digital Marketing alongside my full-time job, with honors. SEO, Google Ads, conversion optimization. Within weeks I knew this was the work I wanted to do for a long time.
What followed was the kind of curiosity that doesn't switch off at 5 PM. Courses, books, blogs, podcasts. SEO, CRO, feed optimization, paid search, and now the seismic shift toward AI-driven search. I still chase the next thing every week.
In 2023 I went freelance. My approach is straightforward: marketing only works when it's holistic. Driving traffic without conversion is expensive noise.
Every recommendation comes with a clear what, when, and why. No vague best-practices, no decks full of jargon.
I work in your CMS, your ad accounts, your content. Not just slide decks and dashboards from the sidelines.
If a tactic won't move your numbers, I'll say so. Even when it costs me hours on the project.
