Who Do I  Help?

From established international businesses to owners of rental properties, from castles to cutting-edge technology companies, I have the experience to deliver the magic of marketing.

Many of the people I have worked with fall into different camps and face different challenges, albeit with one key element: getting a human to do something. 

Businesses 

Running a business means wearing a lot of hats — and marketing often slips down the list. I can step in to give you the support you need, whether that’s planning, creating campaigns, or just keeping things moving. My goal is to make your marketing simple, effective, and worth the time and money you put into it.

Marketing Teams

Sometimes even the best in-house teams need extra support. I can add capacity, bring in fresh ideas, or handle specific projects so your team isn’t stretched too thin. Think of me as a flexible resource you can call on when things get busy.

Start ups

When you’re starting out, every decision feels big and every pound counts. I help start-ups get their marketing foundations right — from clear messaging and branding to generating those all-important first leads. You’ll get practical advice and hands-on support to help you grow without wasting precious budget.

If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

Membership 
Organisations 

Membership organisations face the challenge of engaging a wide audience consistently. I can help with campaigns, content, and communications that keep members informed, inspired, and connected — while making sure your message stays clear and on brand.

Marketing
agencies

Agencies often need reliable freelancers who can drop in, understand the brief, and deliver. I’ve worked with agencies on everything from strategy and copywriting to campaigns and content — helping you keep clients happy without overloading your team.

The Overwhelmed

Marketing can feel overwhelming , there are so many channels, tools, and tactics competing for your attention. I help cut through the noise, simplify things, and focus on what really matters for you. No jargon, no overcomplication — just clear steps that make your marketing feel manageable again.

Consultancy 

Sometimes you just need a bit of expert guidance. I offer straightforward marketing advice to help you make the right choices, set priorities, and avoid costly mistakes. Think of me as your go-to marketing partner when you want clarity and direction

Audit & Strategy

Not sure where to start? I’ll take a close look at your current marketing — from your website to your social media — and highlight what’s working and what’s not. From there, I’ll create a simple, practical strategy that gives you a clear plan of action.

Campaign & Leads

If you want more enquiries or sales, I can design and run campaigns that get results. Whether it’s through ads, landing pages, or email, I’ll focus on reaching the right people and turning interest into action

How Can I Help?

Content & Copy

Words make the difference between being noticed and being ignored. I write blogs, emails, website copy and social posts that sound like you, connect with your audience, and inspire action. Clear, engaging, and always with your goals in mind.

Digital & Website

Your website and online presence should do more than just look good — they should win you business. I help improve, refresh or build sites and run digital marketing that attracts the right people, drives leads, and delivers real results.

Design & Creative

Strong visuals bring your brand to life. From graphics and social media visuals to campaign creatives and marketing materials, I create designs that catch the eye and tell your story in a way that sticks. Simple, effective, and on brand.

Why Work With Me?

Whether you need strategic insight, creative leadership, campaign support, or reliable account management, I step in as an extension of your team. My style is open, practical, and always about working together to get the right outcomes.

My Experience   

With over 20 years in sales and marketing, I know one thing for sure: when sales and marketing work together, growth happens. I’ve helped businesses of all sizes generate better leads and build strategies that convert. Having led marketing for a £50M+ growth company, I also understand the need for flexible support, scaling up when demand is high and streamlining when it’s not.

I now offer you that same flexibility and expertise, working as outsourced marketing support.
