Optional AI assistant (LIA Lite) included for urgent queries and last-mile content checks.
You’re expanding fast. Your content is live in five languages. Your marketing team is pushing ads in Europe, Asia, the Gulf…
But deep down, you’re uneasy.
What if something slipped through?
- What if that “clever” product comparison crosses the line in Germany?
- What if your aggressive CTA sounds like a threat in the Middle East?
- What if that landing page hinting at competitor weaknesses gets flagged in Australia, or worse, gets you sued?
You’re relying on translators to catch legal nuances. You’re hoping your legal team isn’t too busy to review that urgent campaign. You’re crossing your fingers, telling yourself “We’ve been fine so far.”
But luck is not a compliance strategy.
One vague headline. One overlooked law. One regulator email. That’s all it takes.
And then you’re not just apologizing, you’re explaining, firefighting, bleeding trust, budget, and time.
Most marketing disasters don’t begin with malice.
They begin with a well-meaning intern, an enthusiastic campaign… and the charming British delusion that “everyone surely thinks like we do.”
You see, advertising may be global, but regulation, culture, and competitive law are painfully local.
What’s persuasive in London may be prosecutable in Berlin.
What feels cheeky in Sydney may be catastrophic in Dubai.
And what sounds powerful in English might translate into “sue me” in French.
Now, one might assume that someone, somewhere, in legal or compliance would catch these subtleties before they go live. But that’s a bit like assuming that someone else always refills the printer ink, true in theory, rarely in practice.
So campaigns launch. Content gets localized (badly). Ads run.
And your inbox fills with:
- “This headline may violate competition law in Denmark.”
- “Can we not imply our rival’s product causes actual pain?”
- “The regulator in Singapore would like a word.”
You don’t get fined because you’re malicious.
You get fined because you didn’t know what you didn’t know and no one warned you before it was too late.
And suddenly, you’ve become what every modern brand fears:
Not uncompliant.
Unprepared.
TL;DR
That's fine! Read this instead. 🙂👇
You’re expanding internationally. Your content is live. Your ads are sharp.
But deep down, you’re guessing.
What seems clever in New York could be illegal in Frankfurt.
What’s cheeky in London might be offensive in Riyadh.
And regulators don’t care that your intentions were good, only that you didn’t check.
You’re relying on translators to catch legal nuance, hoping legal has time to review your copy, and praying your campaign won’t go viral for the wrong reasons.
Have you ever felt that uneasy moment right before launching, wondering if your campaign might trigger something you didn’t see coming?
The biggest risk isn’t what you know is wrong, it’s what you didn’t realize was a problem.
Whether it’s a compliance fire, a cultural misstep, or an overzealous comparison, the real danger is assuming “We’ll be fine.”
Because luck isn’t a compliance strategy.
And in the global market, unawareness is the most expensive kind of confidence.
Your Story
Let me guess…
You didn’t start your company to become an expert in international advertising law.
You started it to build something brilliant, to innovate, disrupt, expand.
And you’ve done just that.
You’ve grown from a scrappy team to a real operation.
Your product works. Your team’s solid. And now, the world is calling.
You’re live in the US, setting up in the UK, looking at Dubai, Singapore, maybe even Germany.
Your content is sharp. Your team is fast. Your plans are bold.
But with each new country… comes a new layer of risk.
You’re suddenly fielding questions like:
- “Can we mention our competitor’s name in this Facebook ad?”
- “Is this pricing claim allowed under local law?”
- “Will this language offend buyers in the Gulf?”
- “Wait… can we even say this on a landing page in France?”
Marketing says, “Looks good to us.”
Legal says, “We’ll try to get to it.”
And you? You’re stuck in the middle, trying to move fast without making the kind of mistake that turns a campaign into a crisis.
You’re not trying to be reckless.
You’re just trying to scale like a grown-up, not get dragged like an amateur.
What you really want is simple:
To publish confidently across borders.
To build trust, not trigger lawsuits.
To expand without inviting fines, bans, or brand damage.
That’s why you’re here.
That’s why this service exists.
Because you shouldn’t have to choose between speed and safety.
You deserve both.
Let’s be honest:
You didn’t launch your company because you had a burning desire to understand regulatory discrepancies in competitive advertising law between Queensland and Quebec.
No, you did it because you had a great product, a big idea, or perhaps a mild allergy to corporate mediocrity.
And somewhere along the line, between hiring your fifth employee and launching in your third country, you discovered a dark truth of international marketing:
The world is wonderfully diverse… and terrifyingly litigious.
You see, what you say in Boston might get you blacklisted in Berlin.
That cheeky headline that wins clicks in Toronto?
It might breach advertising decency standards in Abu Dhabi.
And the way you mention your competitors in Melbourne?
Well, in France, it’s practically a call to arms (for lawyers, not customers).
Now, of course, you could task your legal team with pre-checking every tweet, tag, and testimonial.
But let’s not pretend they don’t already view your marketing department as a sort of well-dressed liability machine.
So what happens?
You push forward.
You launch fast.
You hope for the best.
And in doing so, you unintentionally treat international compliance the way a teenager treats vegetables: vaguely aware it’s important, but somehow always skipped.
But here’s the thing:
You’re not reckless.
You’re just ambitious and under-informed.
And ambition without insight?
That’s not courage. That’s risk in a tuxedo.
Have you worked so hard to grow your brand that you simply can’t afford a reputation-damaging mistake right now?
You don’t need another dashboard.
You don’t need another 300-page regulatory PDF.
What you need is someone who quietly scans the battlefield before you march your brand across it.
That’s where this service steps in, not as your lawyer, not as your agency, but as your early-warning system.
Because at the end of the day, international expansion is hard enough…
You shouldn’t have to become a compliance monk just to sell shampoo in Singapore.
TL;DR
That's ok! Read this instead. 🙂👇
You built your business to grow, not to become an accidental compliance expert.
Now, you’re scaling across regions, juggling languages, markets, and campaigns...
And you’re starting to realize: “What works in one country might get us fined in another.”
You’re not reckless, you’re just busy, ambitious, and a little exposed.
In the straight version, you’re the founder who wants to expand responsibly.
In the Rory version, you’re the marketing team jumping the fence while Legal's still unlocking the gate.
Either way, the tension is the same:
You want to go global fast, without getting flagged, fined, or famously flamed on LinkedIn.
This service exists because international content shouldn’t require clairvoyance.
It should come with a strategy.
And now, it does.
UNEXPECTED BENEFITS
Here Is What You Get
“Better flagged internally than fined externally.”
My service is that missing instruction manual.
But written by someone who’s actually assembled the damn thing, in four languages.
“What’s legal in London might be illegal in Luxembourg.”
They’re the ones that sound perfectly fine to you, but raise red flags for people operating in a different legal, cultural, or linguistic context.
My service acts as your non-naïve outside eye. The one that says:
“Ah, yes. That campaign that references ‘crushing the competition’?
Lovely in New York. In Switzerland? Slightly war-crimes-adjacent.”
“Legal doesn’t roll their eyes anymore. They say: Thank you.”
“Decide faster. Sleep better.”
I eliminate this existential marketing paralysis.
Because decisions are faster when you’re not waiting for Geoffrey in Legal to finish his third meeting of the day.
What works in Manchester may offend in Muscat.
Success abroad requires finesse, not just translations.
My work gives you that finesse, without hiring 12 local agencies and three nervous consultants.
“Ask it anything. Anytime. It speaks compliance, not confusion.”
When you launch in five regions without a single edit request from compliance…
When your CMO says, “How the hell did we not do this earlier?”—
That’s when you smile, sip your espresso, and say:
“Foresight. Not luck.”
TL;DR
I've got you covered! Read this instead. 🙂👇
The Real Benefits (Beyond the Bullet Points)
Would you feel more confident if you knew your content had already been screened for legal, cultural, and regulatory risks, before anyone else saw it?
Whether you prefer your benefits crisp and corporate or clever and behavioral, the result is the same:
You publish faster, without second-guessing your content.
You protect your brand from regulators, culture clashes, and accidental lawsuits.
You make legal happy by handing them content that’s already been cleaned up, not cleaned out.
You gain clarity across markets, knowing what flies in Sydney won’t crash in Stockholm.
And you look incredibly prepared, without having to become a compliance monk.
In the professional version, it’s about faster approvals, region-by-region clarity, and peace of mind.
In Rory’s version, it’s about making smarter choices, avoiding “IKEA marketing,” and not being the brand that says something daft in Dubai.
One gives you structure. The other gives you swagger.
Both give you confidence.
WHAT YOU GET
Or, How To Stay Out Of Trouble In Style
Let’s face it:
Most international campaigns are like speeding down the Autobahn in a car you built yourself, exhilarating, fast, and only marginally road legal.
That’s where I come in.
Not as your lawyer (they charge more and smile less), but as your brand’s international sanity check, with two gloriously simple service tiers.
What It Does, and Who It’s For?
I offer two levels of competitive content screening services, tailored for speed, scale, and global precision.
Regional Compliance Clarity
The “Don’t get sued” starter pack for brands who’ve realized that ‘just Google it’ isn’t a compliance strategy.
Best for: Startups, NGOs, or SMEs launching across multiple regions, who want to grow globally without starring in a public apology video.
You get:
- Legal & advertising rules overview for: 🇺🇸 United States | 🇪🇺 Europe | 🇸🇬 Asia | 🇦🇪 Emirates | 🇦🇺 Australia
- Rules, red flags, and regulatory faux pas by global region (U.S., EU, MENA, Asia, Australia – the usual suspects)
- Competitive content guidelines by region
- What not to say when referencing competitors
- Cultural nuance checklist for marketing tone & claims, cultural cues: how not to offend entire nations in three words or less
- A list of phrases that sound persuasive in English but light legal fires in other jurisdictions
- Light SEO-legal crossover advice, because Google doesn’t fine you, but France might+ content alignment suggestions for safer copy
Outcome: Your content gets a preemptive, region-level risk scan—so you can publish knowing the red flags are already removed.
Perfect for teams expanding fast, but flying blind.
Country-Specific Deep Screening
The “We actually know what we’re doing” tier for teams who realize it’s cheaper to prevent disasters than clean them up.
Best for: Scale-ups or compliance-conscious brands selling into high-risk or highly regulated countries, anyone who’s ever said “We’re going into Germany next quarter” and then had a minor panic attack.
You get everything in the Standard Package, plus:
- Detailed, country-specific advertising law analysis
- Competitive claim checks against local regulatory standards
- Competitive content audit: does your claim sound bold or just… illegal?
- Full document/report for internal legal teams
- “Pre-Legal Review” markup of content pieces (ads, sales pages, landing pages)
- Strategy calls that won’t waste time defining “what is a CTA?”
- 1-on-1 strategy call per region
- Priority turnaround time
- Legal-friendly documentation: make your lawyers love you (or at least stop frowning)
- Deep-dive into actual national laws (yes, those PDFs everyone pretends to read)
- Hand-marked reviews of your actual copy, landing pages, and ad assets
- Faster delivery, because regret is the only thing that should be late
Outcome: You move from guesswork to granular clarity, aligned with the legal, linguistic, and cultural expectations of each individual country.
Built for CMOs, legal leads, or founders who’d rather prevent a crisis than apologize for one.

TL;DR
That's ok! Read this instead. 🙂👇
What You’re Actually Getting (And Why It’s Not Just Another Audit)
You get two clear packages, with one optional AI sidekick. No fluff. No filler. Just the right kind of firepower for global content sanity.
Would it help if someone could give you clear, region-specific guidance and even adapt it to your most critical markets?
Standard Package
- Region-by-region screening for major areas (US, EU, MENA, Asia, Australia)
- Competitive, advertising, and cultural content compliance
- Clear guidelines to keep your messaging sharp, but legally safe
“The Don’t Get Sued Starter Pack”
It tells you what not to say where, so your clever ad doesn’t become an international incident.
Advanced Package
- Deep country-specific reviews for higher-risk or highly-regulated markets
- Marked-up content with red flags and fixes
- Legal-ready reports, strategy calls, priority delivery
“The ‘We Actually Know What We’re Doing’ Tier”

LIA Lite (Optional AI Add-On)
- A GPT trained on your content & regions for instant feedback and flagging
- 24/7 support for real-time risk-checks
“Your polite AI paralegal who doesn’t sleep and speaks fluent compliance”
It answers late-night “Can we say this?” questions before your team publishes a lawsuit in progress.
Clean Structure Meets Clever Psychology
The end result?
You look like a brand that knows what it’s doing and can prove it.
Would hearing from other founders or legal leads who’ve already solved this problem give you even more peace of mind?
Testimonials
What Others Say Before You Do
You’ve seen the risks. You understand the value. But don’t just take it from us.
Here’s what smart founders, legal directors, and global marketers are saying after working with our competitive content screening services:
Because when your reputation, revenue, and reach are on the line, only experience speaks louder than promises.

Executive director at ABF & grandmother of a superhero
Otilia was EVERYTHING we needed her to be and more. I recommend Otilia to any organizations looking to share their mission and accomplishments in a way that grabs the viewers attention, and promotes their programs and mission in a professional but interesting way.
Anna M.
Volunteer at Araviapa Watershed Conservation Alliance
Otilla is wonderful, she gave above and beyond! We lost communication with her after she delivered the most incredible illustrations, so we hope we can use them all because we don’t want to wait any longer! She is, in a word, fantastic!
Debra M.
CEO/President Adorable Babies Jump Start Corporation (dba) ABJS - Drone Girlz
Absolutely phenomenal, there’s nothing that Otilia can’t do. I was impressed and I admire her talents, her beautiful smile, her desire to provide you with the absolute best work ethics.
Todd F.
Director of operations at ONETrack International
Otilia was amazing! Very talented and incredibly helpful with building our Impact Report. Thank you so much!
Latanya M.
Executive director at ABF & grandmother of a superhero
Otilia is an EXPERT in her craft. She has done several projects for our Foundation and each one has been nothing less than PERFECT!

She is a true PROFESSIONAL with the ability to teach a MASTERCLASS!

Otilia was very responsive and engaging throughout the whole process. She provided me with several different options for the PowerPoint. She was receptive to feedback and willing to make the changes I suggested. I would highly recommend working with Otilia!
BONUS PACKAGE
Because Humans (And Regulators) Aren’t Always Rational
law background + ethical marketing + AI-assisted checks with human judgment.
SMART BRANDS DESERVE SMARTER SUPPORT
In classical economics, bonuses are irrational.
In marketing, they’re irresistible.
And in the world of compliance?
They’re the difference between “I’m impressed” and “Why didn’t we do this six months ago?”
Here’s what you get, not because you need them…
but because they’ll make you feel much cleverer for saying yes.
When you invest in brand protection, you shouldn’t just get a service, you should get strategic leverage.
Here’s what you get in addition to the core packages:
Why it matters: Because the difference between bold and banned is often just one adjective. You’ll know instantly what triggers watchdogs, without needing to decipher vague legalese.
Why it matters: Training your team to catch problems before you have to pretend you saw them first. Save time, reduce back-and-forth, and educate your team while you scale.
Valid for 60 days. Use it wisely. Or wildly.
Why it matters: Because Murphy’s Law loves marketing campaigns. Marketing launches happen at midnight and lawyers sleep like humans.
Why it matters: Print it. Laminate it. Leave it on your CFO’s desk casually. Keep it handy during launch week, agency calls, or when your CEO says “Can we push this live?”
Basically this is a done-for-you report structure to present risks, resolutions, and results to Legal, Compliance, or That One VP Who’s Always Suspicious.
Why it matters: Makes you look organized, proactive, and, frankly, indispensable. Because looking buttoned-up in meetings is half the battle.
Total Bonus Package Value: $1,235
All bonuses included with both service tiers. No upsell traps. No bait-and-switch.
Would a few extra tools, like checklists, reports, and an emergency review, make your job easier and your brand safer?
Important Note:
These bonuses aren’t just extras. They’re perceived value amplifiers.
They reduce post-purchase dissonance.
They make your decision look smarter in hindsight.
And, frankly, they make everyone else in your org ask:
“Wait… where’d you get this from?”
TL;DR
It's OK! Read this instead. 🙂👇
Bonuses That Feel Like You Just Outmaneuvered a Fine
You’re not just getting compliance support, you’re getting strategic shortcuts designed to make you look brilliant, stay protected, and launch faster.
- Region-by-region phrase blacklist (“What NOT to say”) - a guide full of words that look harmless but invite legal rage
- A self-audit toolkit for your team to catch issues before you have to - templates that make you seem 40% more prepared than you feel
- One emergency content review (a.k.a. launch-week safety net) - a panic button you’ll pretend not to need (until the night before launch)
- A compliance-on-the-go PDF cheat sheet – a cheat sheets that scream “competent adult energy” in PDF form
- A plug-and-play legal report to make even your grumpiest VP smile - an executive-ready report template to impress Legal and Leadership
Why This Matters
READY TO PROTECT YOUR BRAND FROM INVISIBLE RISKS?
Don’t Wait Until “We Should Have…”
If you’re expanding internationally, publishing content, or pushing campaigns across borders, this isn’t a nice-to-have.
It’s a quiet insurance policy against very loud problems.
But here's the thing:
This work is not mass-produced.
Every audit, every screen, every guideline is handcrafted, researched, and reviewed with care.
That’s why we only accept 2–3 clients per month.
Not because it sounds fancy.
Because that’s what real quality control looks like.
The Danger Of “Wait And See” Strategy
In marketing, waiting feels responsible.
In risk management, it’s usually how the fire starts.
Let’s put it plainly:
If your brand’s going global and you haven’t had your content sanity-checked for legal, cultural, or competitive red flags…
You’re not being careful.
You’re being accidentally brave.
And bravery, while admirable in war films, is a terrible content strategy.
Whether you’re just launching in new markets or already knee-deep in regional content, this is your moment to:
- Fix what your competitors are still ignoring
- Launch faster without gambling on guesswork
- Give legal a head start (and a reason to trust you)
- Protect your reputation before it needs rescuing
TL;DR
That's fine! Read this instead. 🙂👇
The Call to Action (A Safe, Smart First Step)
You’ve seen the risks. You’ve felt the pressure. You know the stakes.
Now it’s time to act, not later, not next quarter, not after a minor incident.
- Book a free 15-minute risk consultation, no pressure, no pitch
- Get clarity on your current exposure
- Decide if this fits your region, team, and launch plans
- Lock your spot before capacity fills (only 2–3 clients/month)
“It’s not a sales call.
It’s a sanity check before your ad headline lands you in hot water in Helsinki.”
- Get one smart human reviewing your risk so your entire team doesn’t end up firefighting in Slack
- Use 15 minutes now or spend 15 days fixing a regional PR mess later
- Secure your slot before your competitor does
- Because regret is always more expensive than review
WHAT YOU LOSE IF YOU WAIT
Delaying a decision like this feels safe.
But, like most marketing decisions made on instinct, it’s irrationally expensive in extremely rational ways.
Let’s examine the losses you won’t see in your balance sheet, until it’s too late.
You might think you’re saving time or money by waiting.
But in reality, every day you delay is a quiet gamble with your brand’s reputation, your legal exposure and your team’s sanity.
Here’s what hesitation really costs:
You lose the illusion of competence
Nothing says “we’re not ready for global growth” like being caught off guard by a local regulator.
You could have looked brilliant, prepared, and proactive. Instead, you look like you just discovered Belgium has laws.
In a pitch deck, “due diligence” is a bullet point. In real life, it’s a filter for funding.
One poorly phrased sentence = €50,000 fine
A single line of text in the wrong jurisdiction can spark an investigation, a takedown request, or an expensive apology campaign you never budgeted for.
“That ad didn’t look illegal” won’t hold up in front of a regulator.
You lose the chance to look more expensive than you are
Brand perception isn’t built by budgets, it’s built by behavior.
Compliant, polished, globally aware content makes you look like a million-dollar brand, even if you’re working from a WeWork.
No one pays premium prices to companies that cut corners in copy.
Lost access to entire markets
Some countries don’t warn. They blacklist.
By the time you realize your campaign triggered a restriction, your domain is blocked, your ads are paused, and your competitors are celebrating.
You don’t lose a campaign. You lose momentum.
You lose your plausible deniability
Once you know this service exists, you can’t say, “We had no idea.”
So if things go wrong later, it won’t be an innocent mistake. It’ll be negligence.
Psychological effect: Regret cuts deeper when you had a clear way out and ignored it.
You’ll wish you’d paid for protection when you’re paying for PR damage control.
Delayed launches = missed growth windows
Legal bottlenecks at the last minute don’t just slow you down, they cost you first-mover advantage, quarterly targets, and investor confidence.
Every hour your team waits for a legal go-ahead is money not made.
You lose narrative control
If a campaign backfires abroad, you don’t just lose reputation.
You lose control of the story. Regulators get to define it. Critics get to retweet it. You get to “clarify your position” in 12-point font on LinkedIn.
“We meant well” doesn’t trend. “They didn’t bother checking” does.
Internal chaos and burnout
The longer you delay protecting your process, the more your team operates in fear:
“Can we say this?” – “Should we push this?” – “What if this blows up?”
It’s decision fatigue, multiplied across borders and channels.
Your team wants clarity, not caution tape.
You lose a psychological edge over competitors
Your competitors are guessing, too.
If you implement this first, they’ll be the ones watching, waiting, and reacting.
If they do it first? You’re the one playing catch-up.
First-mover advantage isn’t just speed, it’s immunity to stupid mistakes.
I only take 2–3 clients per month
No scarcity gimmicks her, compliance is not a volume game.
Each engagement is deep, precise, and personally reviewed. If the calendar’s full, it’s full.
The earlier you book, the earlier you stop guessing.
You lose your place in line
This isn’t a software subscription. It’s strategic, hands-on work.
I take on only a few clients per cycle to keep the quality obsessive.
Delay, and someone else takes your seat. Likely someone in your vertical.
There’s no waiting list. There’s just someone else getting smarter, first.
Do you ever worry that one small oversight could end up costing you way more than you expected?
The cost of inaction is almost never felt immediately.
That’s why it’s so dangerous.
TL;DR
I've got you! Read this instead. 🙂👇
What You Lose If You Wait (Spoiler: It’s Not Just Time)
Every day you delay content screening is a day you gamble with:
- Fines, lawsuits, or market bans from overlooked legal issues
- Blocked campaigns or content takedowns in new regions
- Delayed launches while Legal scrambles at the 11th hour
- Exhausted teams running in circles asking “Can we publish this?”
- Limited availability — only 2–3 clients are onboarded per month
“Delaying this doesn’t save you money. It saves your competitors the trouble of keeping up.”
- You lose the illusion of control when your content flops abroad
- You miss the chance to look expensive, prepared, and grown-up to regulators, investors, and customers
- You hand over narrative control to critics and compliance bodies instead of owning your brand voice
- You risk getting flagged by the algorithm or the authorities
- And of course: You lose your place in line to someone who booked before you
Still Not Sure? Let Me Ask You This…
What happens the next time your team hits “publish” on an international campaign…
…and you’re not 100% sure it’s legally or culturally safe?
What’s the real cost if:
- That one clever phrase violates a local ad law you didn’t know existed?
- A competitor calls you out publicly or worse, files a complaint?
- Your campaign gets shadow-banned, fined, or quietly pulled down by a regulator?
- Your leadership team asks: “Who approved this?”
Now think about this:
You’ve already done the hard work, strategy, copy, design, localization.
Are you really going to risk it all for one unchecked sentence?
You’ve never had a problem because you’ve been lucky.
But luck is not a risk strategy. And eventually, every brand scaling internationally runs out of it.
Fines come fast. Takedowns come quietly.
Reputational damage? That takes months to fix and seconds to spark.
It’s not the fine.
It’s that creeping little uncertainty your team feels before clicking ‘publish’.
The moment where someone in the Slack thread types:
“Does this… sound a bit aggressive for Germany?”
And everyone either ignores it or hopes someone else is brave enough to take responsibility.
“If it was really a problem, we’d have heard something by now.”
But that’s like saying:
“If speeding was dangerous, I’d have crashed already.”
Most brands don’t act because they’ve never been caught, not because they’ve never been wrong.
To launch globally without hesitation.
To stop hoping content is compliant and start knowing it is.
And that’s exactly what I help you do.
You avoid it by not being obviously wrong in a place where regulators are watching.
And the problem with international content?
Every region is watching.
Every phrase has a different emotional weight.
And every launch comes with the hidden price of unconscious risk.
But avoiding lawsuits, takedowns, and cultural faceplants?
That’s the kind of quiet win your CFO never questions.
Because when you get it right, nothing happens.
And in global content, that’s the best outcome possible.
If something did go wrong, wouldn’t you rather be able to say, ‘We were proactive,’ than, ‘We didn’t see it coming’?
TL;DR
That's fine! Read this instead. 🙂👇
Twist the Knife (Because Denial Is Dangerous)
Just in case it didn’t sting enough the first time…
You’re publishing content in unfamiliar markets, without fully understanding the risks.
You think you’re covered, but:
- Your legal team is overstretched
- Your content is translated, not localized
- Your campaigns are crossing cultural and regulatory lines without a safety net
One overlooked phrase. One regulator email. One public takedown. That’s all it takes.
“Hope is not a compliance strategy. It’s a temporary illusion of safety wrapped in a risky metaphor.”
- You assume “It worked in the UK” means it’ll work in the UAE
- You believe silence from regulators = approval
- You’ve made it this far without incident, so you think you're immune
But let’s be clear:
The reason you haven’t been flagged yet… is either luck, obscurity, or both. And neither scales.
Still Have Doubts? Good. That Means You’re Smart.
Let’s Address the Elephant in Every Room
If you’re thinking any of the following, you’re not alone.
And if you’re not thinking them… your CFO probably is.
People don’t make buying decisions based on logic.
They use logic to justify what their gut has already decided.
So let’s get to the honest part, the hesitations you’re probably not putting in your Slack threads but are definitely muttering under your breath.
Let’s answer them. With empathy, wit, and a touch of strategic mischief. Let’s get ahead of every hesitation so your decision feels not just smart, but inevitable.
Smart buyers question everything.
Here’s what might still be running through your mind and why none of it should hold you back:
“You’re not a lawyer. Can I trust this?”
Correct. I’m not your legal counsel. I’m your legal department’s best friend.
You’re right to ask. I’m a law graduate with corporate compliance experience (Oracle, among others), but I’m not offering legal advice or representation.
Instead, I act as a pre-legal intelligence layer. What I do is preemptive screening. I flag the risks, inconsistencies, and red flags before legal gets involved, saving them time, and saving you from publishing content that never should’ve reached them.
Lawyers are brilliant, but they tend to show up late in the process and say things like “This should’ve been flagged two weeks ago.”
I show up early, quietly prevent disasters, and help your lawyers spend more time approving than fixing.
Your legal department stays in control. I simply give them a smarter, faster head start.
Think of it like a smoke detector, not the fire brigade. Or better: your brand’s risk early-warning system.
“We already have an internal legal team. Isn’t this redundant?”
If you already have a legal team, that’s perfect! So does Meta. But they still get sued. Why? Because internal legal often sees things too late, too fast, or in the wrong language.
I’m not here to replace them, I’m here to make them faster, calmer and more efficient.
Legal teams don’t want to sort through vague marketing lingo or compare competitor claims across borders. Why make them your headline editors?
They want clean, flagged content that’s legally aware, not marketing guesswork.
So, I give them clean, structured insight so they can make the right calls without becoming bottlenecks. What I do is filter the nonsense before it ever reaches them. I make their lives easier, and your launches faster.
I’m the person who prevents your legal team from saying, “Who approved this?!”
I speak fluent Creative and Legal, so you don’t have to be the translator. My work makes legal look like heroes, and makes your life easier.
“Is this overkill for a company our size?”
Only if your plan is to stay small. If you’re publishing across borders, there’s no such thing as ‘too careful.’
Regulators don’t fine you based on headcount and they don’t scale their enforcement based on revenue.
They fine startups the same way they fine multinationals, based on what you say, how you say it, and where it lands. Except startups don’t always survive the PR fallout.
Fines, bans, and regulatory backlash don’t scale with your headcount—they scale with your visibility. So, if you’re operating internationally, you’re already on the radar. You’re not too small to get noticed, you’re too visible to get away with it.
Small companies get big fines too, especially when they look unprepared.
This isn’t overkill. It’s prevention at scale.
One misstep costs more than this service ever will.
“Won’t this slow us down?”
No. In fact, it speeds you up, by reducing launch delays and rewrites. It’s the difference between launch-ready and launch-regretted.
Because nothing delays a launch like fixing problems at the last minute, waiting on Legal or scrambling to fix an ad after it’s been flagged. You get answers fast, feedback clearly, and reviews done before your campaign gets stuck in legal limbo.
I work fast, communicate clearly, and deliver actionable insights without endless back-and-forth. You get answers, not admin.
Moving fast without friction? That’s the dream. This makes it real. I reduce friction, not create it.
“What if I don’t have content ready yet?”
That’s the best time to talk.
Because fixing a problem before it exists is the one marketing miracle no one regrets funding.
Reactive = expensive. Preventive = clever.
“What if our content is already live?”
Then it’s the perfect time for a post-launch audit.
Because “hoping for the best” is not the same as being in the clear.
Fixing now is smarter (and cheaper) than apologizing later.
“How is this different from legal tech or compliance software?”
Software gives you data. I give you decisions.
If you enjoy reading 84-page auto-generated PDFs full of legalese and no context, then yes, tech tells you what the law says. I tell you what your ad is actually doing. In plain English. For real humans.
Unlike tools like Apiax or PerformLine, I don’t just give you rules, I apply them to your actual content. Line by line. Sentence by sentence. Tone, claims, comparisons—contextually analyzed by a human who understands both law and language.
Tech is the map. I’m your guide.
“I’ve been burned by consultants before. Why are you different?”
Because I don’t vanish after the invoice.
This is high-touch, human-led, and built on obsessive detail. You get documented insights, actionable advice, and yes, actual follow-through.
This isn’t a report. It’s a relationship.
“Is this info actually up to date?”
Yes and I’m obsessive about it.
I check region-specific law updates, cultural changes, and regulatory alerts weekly.
Most “global compliance checklists” age like unrefrigerated cheese. Mine don’t. And if something changes, you’re the first to know.
I use cross-referenced sources, real-time legal updates, and country-specific regulations reviewed weekly. You also receive audit trails and documentation you can present directly to your legal team or board.
If something changes mid-engagement, I update you immediately. No surprises. No vague disclaimers.
Because staying compliant used to be hard. Now it’s just a message away.
“How do I justify this to my CFO/CEO or procurement?”
Easy. Say: “We’re launching in five markets, and this protects us from being banned, fined, or embarrassed, at a tenth the cost of any of those outcomes.”
I even give you a handy PDF for the conversation. It makes you look brilliant. Because you are. Don’t argue. Just forward the link and watch them say yes.
I provide a ROI framing toolkit:
- Summary PDF
- “Why This Matters” internal slide
- Compliance ROI calculator
- Optional 15-min co-pitch session (I’ll help you make the case)
When you show leadership that one misstep could cost €30K and this costs 1/10th of that, they’ll listen.
“What if we’re between packages or have edge-case needs?”
Then we make one that fits. Let’s tailor it.
Every client is different. If you’re in 5 markets but only 2 are sensitive, we can create a modular package or hybrid tier to match your footprint and budget.
This is not software pricing. This is human intelligence with human flexibility. If you only need 3 countries, you get 3. If you need 20, we pour espresso.
There is no box to fit into, only solutions to design.
No forcing. No fluff. Just fit.
“Will this just create more work for me?”
Not unless you enjoy doing your own compliance homework. Otherwise, it saves you hours, possibly weeks.
I provide summaries, flags, and executive-friendly snapshots. Think of it as “legal risk, now in bullet points.”
You’ll receive:
- Pre-flagged summaries
- Clear yes/no verdicts
- Priority lists with risk level
- Executive-friendly documentation
No fluff. No jargon. No ambiguity. No generic 80-page PDFs, you have to pretend you read.
This is done-for-you, not dumped-on-you.
“We’ve been burned by consultants before.”
I hear this more than you’d think. So have I. Which is why I work like I’m always being evaluated.
That’s why I don’t disappear. No vanishing act. No vague timelines. You get a map, a mirror, and a flashlight, all before your next board meeting.
I work in clear stages, with transparent deliverables, mid-engagement check-ins, and post-review support. You always know what’s happening, what’s next, and what’s been delivered.
I’m not a ghost. I’m a partner.
“We don’t have time for onboarding.”
Good. You don’t need it.
Once I have a few key inputs (your product, regions, existing content), I get to work. There’s no 3-hour kickoff call. No 47-question intake form.
You send. I screen. You breathe.
You send what you’ve got. I screen it, flag it, and deliver actionable insight in record time.
No kickoff calls. No “let’s align on expectations” hand-holding.
You’ll spend less time onboarding than explaining to Legal why that ad went live without review.
This is plug-and-play. With teeth.
“If we were really at risk, wouldn’t we have been fined already?”
Possibly. But then again, most people don’t wear seatbelts because they’ve crashed.
That’s not safety. That’s survivor’s bias. Luck is not a strategy. Especially not when you’re scaling.
The absence of punishment doesn’t mean you’re in the clear, it means you’ve been lucky. Or invisible. Or both.
And trust me: Visibility without protection is when luck runs out.
Don’t confuse “nothing’s gone wrong” with “nothing can go wrong.”

Smart Hesitations, Smarter Answers
You’re a thoughtful buyer. You question things.
And that’s good, because you’re protecting your team, your budget, and your reputation.
But let’s address the doubts so you can move forward with confidence:
- “You’re not a lawyer.” → Correct. I’m a legal-trained strategist who preps content before it hits Legal’s desk.
- “We have legal already.” → Excellent. This supports them, doesn’t replace them.
- “Will this slow us down?” → No, it speeds you up by removing bottlenecks and guesswork.
- “Is this overkill?” → Not when one sentence could cost €50K.
- “Can we customize?” → Yes, this is built around you, not the other way around.
- “We’ve never been fined, so we’re probably fine.” → That’s survivor’s bias, not strategy.
- “Software already checks our stuff.” → Software flags. I explain, prevent, and prioritize.
- “I’ve been burned by consultants before.” → Great! You’ll appreciate a process that’s transparent, accountable, and delivered without generic PDFs.
- “Do we really need this?” → Only if you plan to grow, launch globally, or not get sued.
Scarcity, But The Real Kind
I don’t do “limited time only!” banners.
I do real limits on intellectual bandwidth.
There are only so many hours in the week to dig through regional compliance traps and triple-check your campaign won’t be banned in Belgium or blow up in Bahrain.
So I take on just 2–3 clients per month.
Not because it sounds exclusive, because it’s all I can handle without losing sleep (and precision).
If I wanted to scale this like a SaaS platform, I’d be much richer and you’d be much more exposed.
If this service can only support a few brands each month, wouldn’t it be smarter to secure your spot now instead of scrambling later?
TL;DR
No worries! Read this instead. 🙂👇
Why This Isn’t Always Available, and That’s a Good Thing
You’re not looking at a software product that scales infinitely.
You’re looking at a high-focus, human-reviewed service that takes time, care, and experience to deliver properly.
- Only 2–3 clients are onboarded per month
- Each engagement is hands-on, personalized, and deeply researched
- Launches and risks don’t wait and neither should you
A BETTER STRATEGY: Be First, Not Frantic
Don’t wait until something backfires to ask if it could’ve been prevented.
Don’t wait for legal to panic, or for your ad to go mysteriously dark in Dubai.
Act like the grown-up in the room now, and you’ll sleep like one later.
Let’s make your next campaign your safest and smartest, yet.
No pitches. No jargon. No pressure.
Just clarity, one human, telling another human:
“Yes, this bit of your campaign might quietly blow up in Japan.”
And maybe, just maybe, that conversation saves you six figures and six months of brand repair.
TL;DR
Awesome! I got you. 🙂👇
“There’s no scarcity gimmick here. Just the immutable laws of time, attention, and caffeine.”
- I’m not an agency. I’m not ChatGPT. I can’t review 10 projects a week and still give you gold
- If you wait, someone else takes your slot, possibly your competitor
- If you delay, your content goes live without review and that’s how brand regret is born
“The best time to book was last week. The second-best time is before your legal team sends you a panicked Slack message.”
I’ll review it personally — no automation, no gatekeepers.
I’ll reach out within 24 hours and if we look like a good match, we can schedule a short 15–30-minute alignment call.
Simple. Human. No pitch decks. No pressure. No sales tactics.
Just a sharp, honest conversation about whether we should build something brilliant together.
FAQ
Straight Answers for Smart Decision-Makers
The questions your inner skeptic is whispering at 2 a.m. Because we all have that little voice in our head that says, “But what if…?”
Here’s where we answer that voice. With charm, logic, and the occasional lovingly snarky aside.
No and that’s by design. I’m better dressed and far less expensive.
I’m a law graduate with real-world experience screening international content for legal and competitive risk, including in-house at Oracle, spotting the kinds of legal landmines that lawyers get grumpy about, before they explode.
I don’t give legal advice, I give legal awareness.
My role is to support your legal team, not replace them.
You stay in control. I help you avoid disaster.
Think of me as the friend who tells you your fly is open before the press conference.
Yes. In fact, legal teams love me.
You’ll give them cleaner, smarter content, with risks already flagged and supporting logic prepared.
That means faster approvals, fewer revisions, and better internal trust.
Wonderful. I like to think of myself as legal’s favorite appetizer, light, informative, and no indigestion.
You don’t need me instead of legal. You need me before legal.
I save them time, you stress, and your brand reputation. Everyone wins. Even Procurement.
Short answer: If your ad is going there, I’m looking at it.
Standard coverage includes the U.S., UK, EU, MENA, Asia-Pacific, Australia.
Advanced packages cover specific countries, based on your sales targets and content footprint. You name the country, I’ll name the risk.
You could launch in Liechtenstein, I’ll still help you avoid a lawsuit over font size.
Got a new market? I’ll research it before your content goes live.
Faster than Legal. Slower than ChatGPT. Just right for humans.
- Standard turnaround: 3–5 business days
- Urgent reviews (with emergency credit): within 48 hours
- AI Assistant (LIA Lite): 24/7 instant access for real-time content queries, instant gratification for the compliance-conscious
Like Nespresso for marketing risk.
Yes. I’m not a cable provider.
You won’t be forced to buy coverage in Latvia just because you sell in Spain. We tailor, tweak, and build around your reality, not a pricing matrix invented on a whiteboard.
Custom isn’t a luxury. It’s the only sane way to work globally.
We can tailor scope, depth, and delivery formats based on your internal workflows, market size, risk level, and team setup.
You don’t fit in a box. Neither do I.
LIA Lite is a personalized AI assistant (powered by a fine-tuned GPT) trained on your brand, your content types, your tone, your legal profiles and relevant regulations.
It helps you answer content risk questions fast, like a virtual compliance whisperer.
It’s your AI sidekick for when you want “Is this risky?” answered before Legal finishes their latte.
Optional, yes, but once you’ve used it at 2AM before a launch, it won’t feel that way.
Let’s do the maths you can’t Google:
One regional fine = €50,000+
One brand PR mess = 3 weeks of your life, and your reputation
One late-night campaign change = your team hates you for 72 hours
This service? A fraction of that. And much less therapy required.
You get:
- Faster campaign approvals
- Fewer rewrites
- Stronger legal team collaboration
- Prevention of fines or take-downs that could’ve cost 10–100x the service fee
If a single flagged sentence saves a five-figure penalty or a brand reputation hit… it’s already paid for itself.
Absolutely. In fact, I encourage it.
I call it a “confidence calibration.”
Try one audit. Watch your legal team’s eyebrows raise, in a good way.
Small risk, big clarity. That’s what the best experiments offer.
You can start with a one-time audit for a single-region.
It’s the best way to see the depth of analysis and real value without jumping into a full package.
One scan now > one fine later.
