My professional history (the short version)

 

25 years ago, I began my marketing career in the fast-paced advertising agency world after studying marketing communications, business psychology and English.

I’ve been working in communications within your industry ever since.

My lifelong passion for buildings took me in the direction of property, where I’ve been fortunate to work with market leaders in the built environment, incredible interior designers, furniture makers, property developers, workspaces and prop tech start-ups throughout my career.

Alongside my communications focus, I also co-founded one of the UK’s first coworking spaces and built on my studies with further professional qualifications in workspace psychology, interior design and well certification (healthy buildings). You can learn more on my LinkedIn page.

How much do I know about marketing and communications?

I’ve been advising clients on marketing and communications for 25 years.

I’ve worked with more businesses than I can recount, written thousands of articles and hundreds of websites, taught hundreds of people how to communicate and grow their business, and I’ve worked as a marketing director, head of communications, marketing consultant, senior copywriter, content strategist and more for market leaders.

They have all trusted my expertise and so can you.

What do I know about interiors, property and furniture?

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been obsessed with floorplans, interiors and furnishings since I was young. I would spend hours reimagining the homes for sale in newspaper property sections (that has now grown into an outright Rightmove addiction).

Personal confessions aside, my professional interest in all things ‘property’ flourished further when I joined a house building course with the NHBC early in my career. I was working as the organisation’s marketing manager, and needed to become familiar with residential design, construction, planning and building standards.

From the moment I put on that hard hat, I was hooked. I’ve been supporting businesses in this industry ever since.

In recent years, I took my passion further and studied interior design at KLC and achieved the WELL building standard accreditation for healthy buildings in 2022, which has given me even greater insight into the lives of my clients.

Over the years, I’ve worked with numerous interior designers, architects, furniture makers, specifiers, builders and developers. I am absolutely driven to help the creative talent in this industry to flourish and grow.

How many businesses have I helped?

I’ve helped over 100 business owners directly and countless others in group sessions, workshops and articles.

My client relationships last for a long time (often for years) as I accompany clients along different stages of business growth.

Those clients have been start-ups, sole traders, SMEs and managers/directors in larger companies. It’s been a real variety.

I’ve helped them with everything from their long-term growth plans and communication strategies to their content plans, social media, positioning, pricing, tone of voice and copywriting.

I also support HR teams with internal communications, recruitment communications, onboarding, diversity & inclusion, and workplace wellbeing campaigns.

The trust and relationships that come from working together always leads to me becoming a trusted consultant, confidant, advisor and friend.

What does my ‘WELL AP’ qualification do?

As a professional in the built environment, you may have heard of the WELL standard. If not, read this: What is WELL?

Its aim is to help the industry develop spaces that enhance human health and wellbeing.

I help by working with property owners, tenants and landlords to help them communicate the benefits of WELL to their employees and stakeholders.

From internal communications and guidance to workplace signposts, information, media messages and reporting, I can help you gain even greater return on your investment into WELL.
