Cornerstone and Compass

We started Cornerstone & Compass because we saw too many businesses making decisions based on bad data, vanity metrics, and gut feel. Our name encompasses this. Cornerstone is the foundation, and Compass is where to go. This is how we work, building a solid foundation in which to build up from in the direction that is right for YOU.

Our founder Benjamin Marriott, brings over 15 years of experience from multiple agencies all focused on specific parts of the website pipeline. This includes development, marketing, design, SEO, advertising, automations, emails to name a few. What he brings to the table, is an broad yet specialised of understanding where you are at, and what you need to do next.

We've worked with businesses of all sizes, from ambitious startups to established brands. We've seen the same patterns again and again: broken tracking, wasted ad spend, missed opportunities in the funnel.

Our approach is simple: get the foundations right, then improve systematically. No magic bullets, no overnight transformations, just disciplined, data-driven work that compounds over time. If any one tells you otherwise that they can instantly improve your site overnight, tell them they need more sleep as they have clearly missed the part where they need to understand your audience and plan out a strategy.

We believe great performance is built, not bought. And we're here to help you build it.
