Daring by Design: The OSER Philosophy

By
Laura Derbyshire
Founder & Consultant

At OSER, we believe growth isn’t just something you aim for - it’s something you engineer. Through bold thinking, deep experience, and the smart integration of AI, we help businesses cut through the noise, solve real problems, and scale with purpose.

The name OSER means “to dare”, and that’s at the heart of everything we do. Whether we’re working with a Seed-stage startup, a scaling Series A business, or a Private Equity-backed turnaround, our mindset stays the same: challenge assumptions, simplify the complex, and push creative boundaries to unlock commercial outcomes.

We’re not a traditional agency. We’re a strategic partner. A sounding board. A creative weapon. We don’t offer bloated decks, generic campaigns, or one-size-fits-all plans. What we do offer is sharp, tailored solutions that fuse strategy with execution - rooted in experience and amplified by AI.

Human-Led. AI-Powered. Impact-Focused

Too often, marketing is seen as a cost centre, not a growth engine. We’re here to change that. Our approach is part consultancy, part creative studio - designed to uncover the real blockers to growth and turn brand and marketing into tools for serious impact.

We harness AI not as a gimmick, but as a force multiplier. From insight generation to campaign testing, AI allows us to work smarter, move faster, and deliver more precise results. But we always keep the human at the core, because growth is about understanding people, behaviour, and bold ideas that connect.

Who We Work With

Our clients span startups, scaleups, and private equity firms - businesses with ambition and a desire to break through the noise. Whether you’re launching, scaling, or repositioning, we bring the clarity, creativity, and commercial lens needed to accelerate growth.

We’ve advised founders navigating investor decks and go-to-market strategies. We’ve supported scaleups trying to unify brand and performance marketing. We’ve worked with PE firms to reposition and relaunch portfolio companies for rapid ROI. No matter the context, our philosophy stays the same: be bold, be clear, and build what drives results.

No Fluff. Just Growth

In a world full of buzzwords and marketing jargon, OSER is refreshingly straight-talking. We care about impact, not impressions. We obsess over conversion, not clutter. We’re here to help you grow - strategically, creatively, and measurably.
