Hi — I’m Alan Spicer. I’m a YouTube Consultant, growth strategist, data obsessive, and certified YouTube expert based in the UK.

I have 2 decades working at the intersection of YouTube, social media, analytics, and growth systems — helping creators, brands, and media companies turn attention into something sustainable.

How I got here (the short version)

2007 – Co-founded a web development agency. Started in sales and social, then went deep into SEO, UX, analytics, and performance.
2012 – Discovered YouTube and never looked back. It’s the perfect mix of storytelling, community, and data.
2013 → now – Full-time YouTube consultant, educator, affiliate marketing specialist and channel builder.

Since then, I’ve:

• Personally published and guest-hosted 3,000+ videos, 

• Helped scale hundreds of creators and businesses

• Worked on channels with millions of monthly views

• Earned SIX YouTube Silver Play Buttons for clients

• Built repeatable systems for CTR, retention, and monetisation

I’m a UK-based, YouTube-certified expert, accredited by the YouTube Creator Academy in:

• Audience Growth

• Channel & Asset Management

• Content Ownership & Monetisation

Who I’ve worked with

I’m a former member of the vidIQ Customer Success team, where I coached and audited hundreds of channels across every major niche.

I’ve also consulted for and worked alongside:

Media brands and creators in crypto, education, entertainment, and kids’ content

Tool platforms including TubeBuddy, TubeAI, Taja.ai, GigaStar, and Gyre.pro

Industry-leading brands in high-pressure media niches like Crypto Banter, The Coin Bureau, Trade Travel Chill, Lily & Loaf, and AthleanX

Proven YouTube growth across the hardest niches.

Scaled Woof & Joy to 350k+ subscribers in under a year, built Coin Bureau Finance from 0 → 20k in 2 months, and grew Coin Bureau Trading from 15k → 100k+ in 8 months — all through retention-led systems, CTR optimisation, and data-driven packaging, not viral luck.

What I actually do (no fluff)

I help creators and brands:

• Grow views, watch time, and subscribers predictably

• Fix retention and packaging problems that are killing performance

• Build content systems instead of chasing viral luck

• Turn YouTube into a reliable business asset, not a gamble

I work with:

• Solo creators

• SMEs

• Media brands

• In-house teams that need a second brain

If your channel is stuck, plateaued, or scaling chaotically — that’s usually where I come in.
