Director

I’ve worked in marketing for 20 years and I love it! No two days are the same and it’s this variety that makes marketing so special for me.
The last company I worked for, Constant Contact, gave me the opportunity to work with 100s of small businesses across the UK. It was the best nearly four years I’ve had in a job! The business owners I met were (and still are) incredible. You could say I was bitten by the small business bug.
In 2016, I was made redundant. I knew I still wanted to work with micro businesses, so when my husband said I should start my own business, I didn’t need a huge amount of convincing. After all, I loved sharing marketing tips with small business owners, and this way, I could do it all the time. How could I not love that?
So, if you struggle with getting your marketing done, I’d love to hear from you. You didn’t start your business to become a marketing expert. You do what you do because you love it. I want to help you figure out the marketing stuff so that you can make money! It’s as simple as that. When you succeed, so do I. Plus, I get a warm glow knowing I helped you. Get in touch and tell me your marketing struggles. I want to help you find your inner marketer.

Marketing for small businesses

Whether your small business has existed for years, or just recently started up, finding the most effective marketing strategies is critical. Join this group to connect with like-minded small business owners and advisers to share and discuss marketing strategies and resources.

I’m the founder of Chocolate PR, an award winning PR agency I established over 17 years ago, after working in journalism, media, marketing and PR agencies. I believe PR is for all of us, not just the big boys and I’m passionate about helping women who really don’t believe in themselves get empowered through coverage in the national press. Facing imposter syndrome head on I work with clients to create confidence in their message, and to craft their story in a way that produces pride around their business and an excitement for future growth…and we have lots of fun along the way!

I have worked on newspaper newsdesks, as a magazine editor, as an online content editor for media groups, in radio and also within marketing teams. I have built the business up organically from scratch, focusing initially on working with big businesses and corporates and have over the years worked with companies of all sizes including the likes of Whistles, NSPCC, learndirect, Marriot Hotels, Yo! Sushi, Dale Carnegie as well as with celebs.

BUT - a niggling feeling was lurking that I could have more impact with my skills and after pretty much hitting burnout I decided to ditch corporate, and I did a massive about turn and started to work with individuals, particularly service based female entrepreneurs.&nbsp;

My focus is now firmly on helping female entrepreneurs and start up businesses unlock the power of PR to raise their credibility and visibility by getting in the press, so they can make the impact they deserve because there are TOO many incredible entrepreneurs with passion fuelled businesses who are hiding in the shadows.
