A desk, a camera and clients who stayed.
I'm Stephen Ellul. I run Growth Bully, co-own Mamori and I'm building Breezflo. Everything I sell to clients, I run on my own companies first.
Most businesses I meet don't have a leads problem. They have a follow-up problem and a who-is-on-the-call problem.
That is the work: ads that reach the owners and directors who sign, follow-up that answers every enquiry within minutes, and a calendar that fills with people who can say yes. Counted in the client's own CRM, not in an ad dashboard.
I review every deliverable that leaves Growth Bully. Clients stay 2.9 years on average, and the ones that stay longest are the ones who can see every sale we brought them.
From a spare room to the stage.
Eight moments from my own camera roll, 2020 to 2025.
- 2020
The spare room
Lockdown, a desk in St Julian’s and two screens. I learned paid ads the slow way: my own money, my own mistakes, one account at a time.
- 2021
The yellow wall
One light, a tripod and a camera in San Gwann. I started filming short videos about what was working in ads, because nobody books a call with a stranger.

The first photos
The same yellow wall, a laptop and a mug. Growth Bully gets a face.
- 2021
The first office
Growth Bully moves into Msida. Empty desks, flat-pack boxes and a lease that felt huge at the time.
- 2022
No desk needed
Working from the office floor. The clients were the priority; the furniture could wait.

Three companies, one playbook.
Growth Bully runs the Decision Maker Pipeline™ for established businesses in Malta and the UK. Mamori tells you in seconds whether a food product fits your health needs: over 2,000 people scanned 70,000+ products in its first two months. Breezflo is outbound that runs itself for sales teams, in build.
Brands I have grown through Growth Bully
Three rules I don't break.
Count sales, not clicks.
Every result I quote is a booked call, a sale or a cost per lead, tracked in the client's own systems, with the client named next to it.
Same process, every client.
One proven system, run the same way every time. Custom work is where agencies slow down and results get lost.
Test it on my own money first.
If I recommend a channel, an offer or a tool, I have already run it on Growth Bully, Mamori or Breezflo.
