Matthew O'Brien

Matthew spent 17 years as a Chartered Accountant before founding Review Collector. He works directly with every client, focuses on real results over vanity metrics, and brings a business owner's perspective to every conversation.

17 years as a Chartered Accountant taught me what actually grows a business.

The pattern I kept seeing

I sat across the table from hundreds of business owners over 17 years. The ones consistently growing all had one thing in common. Strong Google reviews. The ones struggling often had almost none not because their customers were unhappy, but because no-one had ever built a process to ask.

Why I made the switch

I have always been more interested in helping business owners grow than in saving them tax. I wanted to focus on what actually works in 2026 helping local businesses get seen by more people, convert more of them into customers, and build the kind of online reputation that does the selling before anyone picks up the phone.

What Review Collector does

A system that gets your happy customers to say publicly what they already tell you privately and puts the whole process on autopilot. Most clients see their phone start ringing more within the first two weeks. Some call me just to say they had to turn work away.

How I work with you

You deal with me directly. Not a junior marketer. Not an offshore support team. I know what business cycles feel like. I know what seasonality does to cashflow. And I know that what you want is a real return on your investment not a report full of metrics that don't pay your bills.
