Alfie Dawson’s

Bordeaux & Burgundy are masters at being the scalpel, not the Swiss Army Knife for Business to Business marketing. In a B2B landscape crowded, Bordeaux & Burgundy was built on a principle – to help businesses outsmart their competition, not outspend them.

Founded by young entrepreneur Alfie Dawson, the agency had quickly made its mark across New York and London. But with momentum came complexity. Growth was strong, yet the business had reached a point where scaling meant more than just landing more clients –

It required rethinking the model, sharpening the offer, and evolving the vision and goals.

Let’s double the business ! Through Compadres Business Advisory, Alfie partnered with Clive to move from doing more to doing smarter. Together, they uncovered a new product opportunity that extended Bordeaux & Burgundy’s unique edge – helping clients not just compete, but truly differentiate.

The process paired structure with creativity: identifying the bottlenecks blocking scale, reframing what growth should look like, and building a model to support it. Clive acted as both advisor and entrepreneurial catalyst — zooming out to reveal the full scale of opportunities across industries and markets.

Clive sits on the border of an experienced business advisor and entrepreneurial therapist. He helps me realise the true scale of opportunities by looking at it from a bird’s-eye view, crossing verticals and industries. He acts as a catalyst for the ‘aha!’ moments and encourages practical thought processes that encapsulate the full scale of what’s in front of me.

My vision for Alfie, and Bordeaux & Burgundy is to be the largest and most influential business to business marketing group in the world. He’s that kind of entrepreneur.
