The complete expansion partner for product brands building and growing in UK and EU markets
Scale With handles everything - market entry, compliance, logistics, marketplace management, and brand control - so you are not trying to coordinate specialists while running a business.
Why most expansions do not go to plan.
Entering a new market involves more moving parts than most brands anticipate. VAT registration. EPR and packaging compliance. Logistics and 3PL setup. Marketplace configuration. Listing localisation. Brand control. Channel management. Each one is a project on its own.
The typical approach is to piece together a team: a tax advisor for compliance, a marketing agency for Amazon, a logistics partner for fulfilment. None of them are working to the same plan. None of them are accountable for the full outcome. When something goes wrong - and in a new market, something always does - there is no single person who owns it.
That is why expansions stall, overspend, and occasionally fail completely. Not because the opportunity was wrong. Because the execution was fragmented.
Scale With is built to solve that.
One partner. Complete solution. Profitable growth.
We are not a consultancy that produces a report and leaves. We are operators who build and run the things businesses need to grow.
Both founders work on your account.
Scale With is founder-led throughout. John Welbourn and James Wakely are directly involved in every client engagement. You are not sold by senior people and handed to a junior team.
We execute, not just advise.
Strategy and delivery sit under the same roof. We do not produce recommendations and leave you to implement them. We implement.
Our commercial model is tied to your results.
We work on a percentage of revenue, not a day rate. When your revenue grows, we benefit. When it does not, neither do we.
We have done this ourselves.
Between us, we have launched more than 25 brands on Amazon, managed over £6M in marketplace revenue, and scaled physical product businesses from start-up through to £400M. We are not describing how expansion works in theory.

You are probably in one of these situations
Scale With works with established product brands at different stages and with different problems. If any of the following sounds like your business, we should talk.
Entering a New Market
You have built something real in your home market. The UK or EU opportunity is clear - you can see the revenue potential, and you probably already know Amazon is the right channel to start. What is stopping you is the complexity of getting there.
Find out how we work with brands entering the UK and EUFixing a Failed Expansion
You tried. It did not go to plan. Perhaps the VAT structure was wrong from the start. Perhaps the product arrived in-market without the right compliance documentation. Perhaps the listings went live without a returns process in place.
Find out how we help brands recover from a failed expansionTaking Control of Your Brand Online
Your business has been built through wholesale, distribution, and trade relationships. But online, the picture is different. Resellers have shaped your Amazon presence without any input from you. There are multiple listings for the same product, inconsistent specifications.

You are already in the market and already on Amazon. You have reached a certain level of revenue. But growth has slowed, or stopped, or you know the account is not performing the way it should.
Find out how we help brands scale their marketplace presenceWhat we have delivered.
We are early in building Scale With's track record as a standalone partnership. Here is what we have done so far - and what it has produced.
US Electronics Brand
Spent over £100,000 attempting to enter the UK and EU market. The VAT structure was wrong, the compliance documents were incomplete, and the Amazon launch had generated poor reviews. We rebuilt the operation from the ground up.
In the first six weeks of the corrected launch, the brand sold more than 1,000 units. A five-figure VAT rebate was recovered.
UK Heating Controls Brand
Had lost control of their Amazon presence entirely. Multiple resellers were listing their products with inconsistent specifications, and the brand had no authoritative presence on the channel.
We took control of the listings, removed the confusion, and established the brand as the primary seller. Fifty products are now scaling across EU marketplaces.
Professional Communications Brand
Held a major licence in the European market and needed a full Amazon UK managed service built from scratch.
Account configured, listings created and optimised, advertising live. Trading within weeks of engagement.
