Itโ€™s 2pm on a public holiday. The sun is out, itโ€™s warm. One of those days that makes doing anything other than slouching in a bean bag with a rosรฉ pretty damn hard. Iโ€™m at work. Our sales team has been accused of getting on the wrong side of consumer law. As the company lawyer, Iโ€™m preparing our response. Iโ€™m still at the office at 2am and beginning to think there must be a better way. The better way, I decide, is to change tack. Do something I truly love doing. Do Marketing. Quitting the job was easy, quitting the career took a bit more courage. Though, it was made easier by my passion for marketing and appetite for learning everything there was to know about it. These days I spend my time trying to master it. I run a content and campaign agency, consulting to businesses all over the world. The things I can help with: Inbound Marketing Methodology Copywriting Content Strategy and Creation SEM Social Media Strategy and Management Campaigns and Brand Need any proof? Just reach out and weโ€™ll have a free chat about what I can do for you.
