Telling your story to win business
Hello and thanks for visiting
So, you are in business and you’ve got great products and services, fantastic customers and clients, a brilliant team and you do great things with charity, community and sponsorship – but you don’t have time to tell anyone.
That’s where we can help
What we do
Get you in the news
Make your message clear
What’s on your channels?
You’ve got channels to broadcast your message online, but what’s the content like? If it’s boring, dated, confusing or sometimes non-existent, then you’ve lost your audience. We can write interesting and engaging content that will build loyalty and make people want to engage with you and your business.
Tell your story
A picture is worth a thousand words
Simple planning
Fail to plan, plan to fail. You will be undertaking lots of marketing activity, but do you have a plan? A simple session can put all your marketing ducks in a row, resulting in a short concise marketing plan which prioritises actions and clearly sets out targets and timings.

About Me
Extremely motivated marketing and PR professional with over 30 years’ experience in marketing and PR roles in the public and private sector.
I have run my own business as a freelance marketing and PR consultant since August 2012 and I have a mix of regular clients and consultancy work.
Specialties: Copywriting, content; PR; marketing strategy; digital marketing and photography.
I also edit the Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce magazine, Focus.
I have been a board member of the Staffordshire Moorlands Chamber of Commerce since its inception in early 2015.
I want to talk to any business about how they can improve their media presence and I am also, happy to talk to anyone thinking of taking the plunge into self-employment.
Spare time interests: Kitchen dabbling, photography, watching live music, Lego nut and travel
I'm based in Leek in the beautiful Staffordshire Moorlands and I'm fortunate to source a lot of my work locally. However, geography is no boundary and I'm happy to work with anyone from the rest of the UK and worldwide. Just drop me a line on the contact form below.
