What is your favourite business book and why?

Now Discover Your Strengths (Buckingham & Clifton)

 because we can't all be great at everything.

My Mum & Dad... both ran small businesses, and they just got on with it.

Anyone remember running a business without mobile phones, emails and the internet?

Deciding which opportunity to focus on next.

Any business we work with that achieves and unexpected (and beneficial) result... It happens a lot more often you might think.

What piece of advice do you wish you had known when starting out?

S*** happens. You can't control everthing, so keep your options open and be flexible.

Why do you consider long-term strategic advice important to business success?

You wouldn't generally set off on a journey without some sort of map or idea where you were going. The 'long-term' is now so much shorter. A 12 month plan with 90 day milestones is the way forward.

If you had a superpower what would it be and why?

The ability to dissolve plastic. But 'Plastic Man' hasn't got quite the same ring to it as 'Iron Man'!

&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;The Queen of Enterprise Nation in Scotland&amp;quot; is how Emma Jones, CEO of Enterprise Nation describes me!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;She may very well say so. But I couldn&amp;#39;t possibly comment, he he!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I was awarded the Association of Scottish Women in Business&lt;a href="http://www.asb-scotland.org/news-and-events/2018-asb-women-of-inspiration-awards"&gt; &amp;quot;Woman of Inspiration 2018&amp;quot;&lt;/a&gt; in recognition of my services to women, enterprise, digital literacy and social media and a finalist in Outstanding Contribution by the ASB.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With a background in law, journalism, direct marketing, copywriting and speech writing, plus 18 years experience in marketing and digital, I like to think I walk the walk of small business growth and development online.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Clients include State Street Bank, Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, ScottishPower, McEwan Fraser Legal, Edinburgh College and Business Women Scotland, as well as many startup companies and entrepreneurs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Plus I have a healthy following online - unlike many wannabes in the digital sector!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As a regular contributor to BBC programmes on the digital and social media economy as well as publications such as The Guardian, Women in Trade, BQ Scotland, SBBN, Scottish Entrepreneur and Richard Branson&amp;#39;s Entrepreneur Blog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;My boutique digital marketing agency,&lt;a href="https://supersizemedia.co.uk/"&gt; Supersize Media&lt;/a&gt;, works with clients to produce outstanding digital and social media branding and websites as part of an overall marketing strategy that includes highly targeted video, email, podcasting, social sales, PR, Google / social media ads and re-marketing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These strategies are then rolled out and optimised on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linkedin etc to grow the brand&amp;rsquo;s profile, authority and sales growth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most importantly, we work with most budgets, either in a coaching capacity, or training or actually taking over and running the campaigns for clients to deliver the most effective results, reports and profits.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am mad for the bants, love a good laff, adore my Supersize Media team of full-timers and freelancers and get off on inspirational people, ideas, strategies and plans.&lt;/p&gt;
