Websites that win customers — built by founders, not “web guys”

We’re Epic Brands, and we’re two entrepreneurs who founded and grew an E-commerce brand from just £1,200 to over £2.5 million in annual revenue in 10 years, with no further outside investment, before later exiting. Now we build super-fast, premium Shopify stores, service websites, SEO systems and creatives that turn traffic into customers with clean foundations that you or your team can edit and update with ease.

We learned the hard way, so you can skip the costly mistakes and have a smarter website that truly performs well.

ABOUT EPIC BRANDS

We’re the partner we wish we had when we were growing!

We’re not an agency, nor your typical freelancers; we’ve built, run, and sold real online businesses ourselves. We still run our own brands, websites and apps today. Every single one was built by us from scratch and then scaled by us. We know the process inside out. We know what works and what doesn't. Now we're helping you and using our experience where it genuinely adds value, saving you from the pain we went through.

Business Focused

We know what businesses need, and we know how to get it. We create and improve websites to get conversions, sales, leads and enquiries to drive revenue.

Scaled & Sold

Started with £600 each. Built a multi-million UK brand and sold it. We know the process and everything in between. Many don't, and that's what costs you money.

13+ Years Online

Years and years of hands-on experience in the trenches; building, marketing, converting, selling, running and scaling online businesses.

Synergy

With an online business, there are many pieces to fit together. Luckily, we know the recipe for success, and we can put the pieces of the puzzle together.

DTC Portfolio Builders

We’re still building and running our own brands, where we test the latest trends, updates and features. We then use what we know works on your businesses.

Scope Clarity

We're clear and transparent on deliverables, timelines, and potential issues, so there are no surprises, disagreements or disappointments.

Epic Brands vs Freelancers & Agencies

You could be thinking "why don’t I just get a freelancer?" or "an agency could do that" or "how are Epic Brands different?"

Epic Brands:

Founder-led with 13+ years building and running real online businesses. Joined-up thinking across website, conversion, SEO and content — fast delivery, clear scope, and work that’s built to last.

Freelancers:

Good for one-off tasks, but often focused on a single skill (design or dev or SEO). That can create disjointed work and “fixes” that don’t connect to the bigger picture.

Agencies:

Can cover many tasks within their specialism, but delivery is often slower, much pricier, and spread across multiple people — more hand-offs, more process, less agility.

THE BRAINS

Small Team. Big Experience.

It’s just the two of us. We’ve spent years working on our own websites and growing real businesses, so we know what it’s like when it’s your money, your time and your reputation on the line. That experience means we know exactly how everything fits together; from building a website and brand from scratch to getting found and turning visitors into customers.
