About Me
Hi, I'm Ollie Fox, founder of Social Thrive.
I've been building online businesses since I was 15 years old. What started as a passion for growing Facebook pages and creating viral content quickly became an obsession with understanding how people interact online — and what makes businesses succeed.
After years of trial and error, I entered the eCommerce industry, where I generated over £250,000 in revenue within my first two years. I built multiple online businesses from scratch — sourcing products internationally, developing brands, designing websites, and eventually selling several of those businesses to new owners.
Along the way I've worked with global brands including Fashion Nova, Prime Video and UNILAD — experience I now bring to every local business I build for.

Shopify dashboard — Lockdown and Chill, 2020
One of my earliest successes was Lockdown and Chill, an online store launched during the COVID lockdown. What started by selling mini projectors and home entertainment products quickly gained momentum — proving that the right product, branding and website could create incredible results.
Since then, I've continued working across the digital world, helping businesses grow their online presence and understanding what separates successful companies from those that get overlooked.
That experience led me to create Social Thrive.

Today
Modern websites that help businesses look professional and win work.
My focus is simple. I build modern, high-quality websites that help businesses look professional, build trust and generate more enquiries. Every business, no matter its size, deserves a website that reflects the quality of its services.
When you work with Social Thrive, you're working directly with me. Every project receives the same attention to detail, clear communication and commitment to quality that I've applied to every business I've built over the years.
Your website is often the first impression customers have of your business. My goal is to make sure it's one they won't forget.
