I work as a marketing consultant and copywriter. But not much these days, as I'm pretty much retired. But I'm always up for an interesting project!
As a consultant, I help businesses to think, plan and act more clearly, more creatively and more effectively. I've been doing this successfully for many years now, with businesses of all sizes and most types.
As a copywriter, my main skill is in making complex subjects easier to understand, more interesting to read and more relevant to your audience. You're most likely to need me for complicated ideas and relatively sophisticated or intelligent audiences.
Why work with me?
I am an experienced and successful consultant. I have formed and sold a business, managed businesses, and worked with many businesses, brands and organisations, from start-ups to global corporates. In the process, I have written, reviewed and seen thousands of documents, plans and presentations. I have an MBA (Master of Business Administration) and a social science degree, have taught at a business school and was at one time an accredited Government business mentor. I was elected to the Marketing Society in 1989 and became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA) in 2015. I now enjoy helping a small, select number of businesses to become more successful, as an advisor, consultant, non-executive director or friend. More about me
