At a glance

- Based in Horndean, Hampshire, north of Portsmouth. Not in this village.
- Builds AI agents, puts them into your existing tools, trains your team and supports it afterwards.
- Also builds websites for trades and small businesses, and does SEO.
- The first conversation is a free call. No price list is published.
- Publishes this directory, which is why his profile is marked as our own business and is not ranked.

Why a village directory has a page about its owner

This directory is small and says so. On 10 October 2026 it listed eight local businesses besides Dean's own profile: two takeaways, a pub, a hairdresser, a dental practice, a pharmacy, a garage and an estate agent. Around them sit guides to the village centre on London Road, Leigh Park, Waterlooville and Horndean.

The person who runs it also runs a service that many owners on that kind of list could use. Hiding that would be odd, so the profile is labelled, the guides say who wrote them, and nobody is told he is the best at anything.

What he does

Dean installs AI agents. Those are programs that do jobs people normally do at a computer: replying to a new enquiry, following up a lead until it books or says no, sending a quote and chasing it, putting a job in the diary, answering common questions across email, the website and WhatsApp, sorting messages to the right person, raising an invoice, chasing a late payment, copying details between systems and producing the weekly report.

His website describes the work as installed for you, not handed over. It is not a course, it is not phone answering, and it is not a chatbot product.

How it runs

There are four steps: a free call, an audit of the work worth automating, the build and install, then training and support. He starts with the one task that would make the most difference, rather than trying to change everything at once. You leave the free call with a plan you can use with or without him.

What his own website says about him

It says he is a Shopify 10K Award winner, that he has more than ten years in marketing, that more than a million orders have been driven through Meta ads he ran, and that he spent five years as a professional stand-up comedian before moving into marketing.

What this page does not say

There is no Google rating for his business, so none is shown. There is no published price; the cost is given after the free call, with no obligation. And he is not in the village: the build and install are done remotely, and his website says he can visit businesses in Hampshire or nearby in person. If you want someone in the room from the start, say so on the first call and look at providers closer to you as well.
