Marketing Strategy. Sorted.

Senior marketing strategy, clarity and direction for ambitious B2B businesses.

Hi, I'm Sarah. I help businesses understand what's holding their marketing back, identify where the real opportunities lie and develop practical strategies that really deliver results.

Whether you need a fresh perspective, a clear marketing roadmap or experienced support to put plans into action, I work with you on a flexible, project or part-time basis.

No fluff. No jargon.

Just clear thinking, practical advice and senior support to move things forward.

I help businesses get to the heart of their marketing problems, whether that's unclear positioning, an underperforming website, disconnected marketing activity, wasted budget or a lack of strategic direction.

Once we know what's not working, we can work out what needs to change and put a plan in place to fix it.

For agencies, I also provide senior strategy and client leadership on complex digital and marketing projects.

Clarity changes everything.

Sometimes you just need someone to step back and look at the bigger picture.

A fresh perspective can help you see what’s getting in the way and how to focus your time and budget where it matters most.

Why work with me?

I've seen marketing from both sides of the table.

I've been a marketing director responsible for delivering business growth, an agency managing director responsible for clients, teams and commercial performance, and a consultant helping businesses navigate complex marketing challenges.

That experience means I understand the big picture but I also know what it takes to get things done.

  1. Commercial focus: Marketing should support your business objectives, not just generate activity. At COEL, I helped deliver a 60% increase in digital marketing leads through a wider programme of brand and digital improvement.

  2. Strategy grounded in reality: From customer research and positioning to digital transformation, I focus on understanding the real problem before recommending a solution.

  3. Experienced, flexible support: I work directly with you and your team, bringing senior-level experience to specific projects or ongoing challenges without the commitment of a full-time hire.
