It's a tough vocation being an entrepreneur and owner of your own business however, the rewards both emotionally, financially, professionally, and your impact on other humans, can be rich and satisfying. There are highs and lows and my job is to help you smooth the ride providing consulting services focusing on specialists areas that will impact everything you do - knowing your customers, what makes them tick, aligning your offer and values in ways that always resonate, that builds long-lasting relationships and drives digital revenue.
B2B buyers have evolved. They no longer just purchase, they subscribe to your values, the brand experience you offer as well as product & pricing fit. They want trusted partnerships, not just suppliers.Investing in marketing tactics can very often fumble without the right up-front investment in understanding your customers, building emotional connections, telling your story, getting the right technology in place and optimising engagement throughout the buyer and customer journey.After 25 years of bringing up kids, providing a safe and secure home for my family, my motivations and "North Star" are quite different moving forward. If you want to build your business and need to lean on someone who has been at the forefront of marketing digital transformation and want access to know-how, essential tools and tricks that will underpin every aspect of how you go-to-market, I can help.
The added benefit, I have a great network or equally professional and gifted colleagues spanning the whole spectrum of what it takes to do effective marketing so if I don't know it, I know someone who does.
