eCommerce Consultancy
About Vervaunt
All things about Vervaunt, our team, our two offerings and what we stand for as a business.
Vervaunt is a London-based Paid Media and eCommerce Consultancy who work exclusively with retail brands to support and drive growth. The company only offer services in these two areas and specialise in managing paid media accounts (with a focus on Google Shopping) and supporting replatforming projects (from scoping & requirements gathering through to project support).
About the eCommerce offering
The eCommerce consultancy offering is largely focused on replatforming and supporting the selection and delivery of eCommerce platforms. Paul has been working in this space for a number of years previously – initially focusing solely on Magento and then broadening into other platforms.
Key services we provide include initial replatforming requirements gathering, platform selection support & due diligence, partner selection and project-based eCommerce support.
About the paid media offering
Vervaunt provide managed paid media services to a wide range of brands and retailers, including O’Neills, Lulu Guinness, MUJI, PMT Music, Borough Kitchen, Alto Music, Alexa Chung, Self Portrait and lots of others. Our service spans across all paid channels (search, social, shopping, display, Amazon advertising etc) and our offering is geared around being more hands-on and more technical.
We only work with retail businesses and we tend to be more involved than the average agency, running regular discovery sessions with different teams to better understand the client's business, inventory / availability, technology, margins etc.

Vervaunt's History
Vervaunt was founded in September 2017, with a goal of creating a market-leading paid media service for mid-market retailers and a hands-on eCommerce consultancy offering. These remain the only two services that Vervaunt offer and the key focuses within the two departments remain the same.
Paul (Rogers) and Josh (Duggan) started Vervaunt having worked together on a number of projects for some of Paul's consultancy clients, with Josh helping to deliver proof-of-concept paid media campaigns for wholesale-led companies. Paul was working as a Consultant after leaving his role as a Director of an eCommerce agency and Josh was freelancing, having previously worked in paid media for two large media agencies.
