Out of Office On

A brief for an online trainer, and funding secured to cover half a client's project costs. A marketing plan need not be limited by budget.

24 May 2024

As we wrap up the week and I hit my out-of-office, I wanted to share some exciting new updates and highlights with you all.

It’s been a week of great interactions, securing opportunities, and laying the groundwork for future projects.

Here’s a quick rundown:

I had a great discussion going through a brief to target a specific audience for an online trainer. I am looking forward to seeing her business evolve and progress in the chosen direction.

I am thrilled to announce that I’ve helped to secure business funding for a new client I’m about to onboard, covering half of their project costs. If your marketing plan is constrained by budget, I can assist in accessing local funding.

I received an enquiry from an earlier networking event for workshop and PR support. It’s always great to connect with like-minded professionals and explore new opportunities. I am excited to see where this leads.

I had a fun creative catch-up (check out the hearts in those coffees) with Katie Walden Illustration and Alex Jones – The Origami Fox. Watch this space for hopefully exciting new projects on the horizon.

Next week, the kids are off school, so we’re taking some time in our favourite place to recharge the batteries and reconnect as a family before taking on exciting new projects next month.

I have a few books to keep me in the right mindset. Running a business is both rewarding and challenging. Every obstacle we face is a step towards growth, and our response determines our success and happiness.

Thank you for your continued support and engagement. Wishing you a wonderful bank holiday weekend. I’ll be back (another year older) and ready to take on new challenges after our break.
