Hello, I'm Chris McG.
I’m Chris McGuicken, and through Clickist, I work as a fractional leader, CEO, and sales and marketing consultant for businesses across all sectors, though I have a particular passion for supporting creative and tech-driven teams. With over 25 years of experience in business growth, marketing strategy, sales leadership, and brand development, I help founders and companies move from uncertainty to clarity and from stalled to scaling. As a fractional leader, I step in to provide strategic direction, hands-on support, and accountability, without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. Whether I’m building out a sales funnel, reshaping a brand’s offer, or mentoring a leadership team, my focus is always on unlocking real results in practical, people-focused ways. Through Clickist, I’ve worked with hundreds of business owners across the UK and Ireland—helping them remove blockers, spot new opportunities, and take confident steps forward. I combine commercial awareness with creative thinking and tailor every engagement to the unique challenges and goals of the business.
