Traction is Everything

Traction is the lifeblood of any new venture. The reason most startups fail is not because they can’t build a good product, they fail because they can’t get traction. Market traction will help you find investors, grow your revenue, increase market share and make it possible to achieve all the things you dream of for your business venture.

 Traction in the market is everything.

At Traction.ltd we do one thing, help your venture gain market traction.


Market Traction

Achieve an optimal message to market match and get the proof & tangible early traction you need for your venture.

Traction for Investors

Show potential investors that customers are ready for your product or service, with demonstrable traction in the market.

Traction for Adoption

The same strategies which get a venture off the ground, can then be scaled to ramp up growth and achieve real adoption.

Test Measure Learn

Use lean methodologies to find the most effective channels to reach your ideal audience and ramp up growth exponentially.  

What We Do

Here at Traction.Ltd, we work primarily with early stage start ups, using experience driven iterative strategies to achieve real traction and growth in a cost effective way.

We work in the sweet spot between strategy, technical marketing and creativity, in order to find the most cost effective way to both discover and then communicate with your ideal future customer.

With a highly skilled team well versed in all aspects of digital marketing, we test, measure and learn until we have built the most direct and cost effective pathway to reach your customers. Most importantly, our depth of experience means we generally know what to test first, greatly shrinking the time it takes to really ramp up growth for your business.

Any competent agency can test, measure and learn. The true advantage comes when your agency knows what to test first.

A note on this website, it may seem light in content but that is by design. The vast majority of projects we get involved in are via introduction from a past client or from us reaching out to great ventures. The cold queries and RFPs we used to receive were rarely fruitful, so we made some changes. We do zero advertising and we do not even allow ourself to be indexed by Google. The only way we promote ourselves is by generating market traction for our clients.
