Dan Jaques

Dan Jaques founded ContentWorks in Bournemouth. We're the marketing department your trades business never had. We run all your marketing, so you can get on with the job. Dan didn't come to trades from marketing… he came to marketing from trades. His granddad was a carpenter, his uncles fitted kitchens and plumbed bathrooms, and he was on the tools himself at 16: carpentry, roof trusses, building sites, and furniture built on the side and sold at weekend markets. The marketing came later, and not in a straight line: market stalls, five clothing shops, early e-commerce, then SEO worked out by doing it and breaking it. He has run local marketing since 2014, originally as Dan Jaques Online Marketing, and ContentWorks followed in 2023. Long gone are the days of just hiring an SEO. We run your marketing, from the first search to the next job. AI-powered, human-led.
