In a nutshell
I've spent years doing the bit most people skip: the thinking and the doing.
I love to work as part of the team. Results are always best when I sit with you and work out the strategy - who you're really talking to, what you need to say, how it all hangs together - and then I'll roll up my sleeves and actually make it happen. The website. The brochure. The press release. The campaign that gets people through the door. No handing over a beautiful plan and disappearing. I stay for the bit where it has to work. My clients sometimes have me on board for a few weeks, a couple of months or longer (retainer) - it’s all about finding how you feel I can help you.
I've done this at a senior level inside small, complex organisations - a hospice, a theatre, a country private estate - where there's no marketing department, no big budget, and no room for messages that miss. Just one person (me) who needs to think like a Head of Marketing and work like the whole team.
If you need someone who can step in, understand your world quickly, and actually get your business seen (without months of induction) that's the work I do.
