Why you need a small business marketing consultant
Grow your small business and reclaim your time and energy to do more of what you love.
I've seen many small businesses experience the same problem: you're a one-person band, and are really good at what you do - which is your product! But that means you have to wear many hats, including marketing. And that eats into the time and energy you have to do what you love - your core business and bottom line.
​
You may be feeling overwhelmed by the constant need to come up with social media posts, or have little idea of the power of SEO. You'd like some help, but don't know where to start.
​
Or, you've worked with a small business marketing consultant before and found them too expensive, or too busy to support you fully.
​
There is a way to solve these challenges. Let me bring my 15 years of experience to your business's marketing - without costing a fortune.

​
I love putting together articles, blog posts, product copy, other web content, adverts and brochures and seeing the results it can achieve for you.
​
Check out my blogs section to see how I can put together SEO-friendly blogs and listicles for you.

E-commerce
E-commerce services from a small business marketing consultant can help grow your online store, brand and tone of voice, resulting in increased sales.
​
I run my own vintage horticultural-inspired print-on-demand gift, homeware and wall art Shopify store, Arty-Stuff.com, so know how to set up and run a store for you.
Videography
With just a decent iPhone and some basic editing software, I've been making videos for social media for ages, such as this nice lockdown video I made at Hestercombe.
​
If you need a film with higher production values like Hestercombe's 'Where Creative Ideas Grow', Guildhall School's 'We Are Guildhall', or Hospice UK's 'The Power of Gardens' - all of which I produced - I can find a suitable filmmaker, brief them, manage the shoot, and curate the production process for you.


Advertising
Many small business owners do their own paid search and paid social advertising, but with the help of a small business marketing consultant you can achieve better results and more sales.
​
Advertising can take a lot of different shapes and sizes, including traditional print advertising in magazines, papers and outdoor, or online web banners, paid social media and search engine PPC.


Photography & Design
Taking great photography makes your brand and products stand out - and as a small business marketing consultant I can help transform your imagery to drive more sales.
​
The same goes for design - if you need campaign creative, print ads or brochures, I can produce these for you on Canva or Adobe Creative Suite.
