A bit about you 

I work with ambitious, founder-led B2C brands — often in skincare, wellness, food & drink, gifting or lifestyle — where there’s a strong product, a loyal customer base, and real potential to grow.

These are businesses doing well, and with huge potential— but without senior marketing leadership, things don’t necessarily move as quickly as they could.

 

That’s where I come in.

I help steer in-house marketing teams, bring clarity to decision-making, and make sure the day to day marketing actually supports the bigger picture.

Why 'Left + Right'?

Left-brain strategy.
Right-brain creativity.

so your marketing is commercially sound and creatively strong.

You get trusted, senior-level marketing expertise without the cost or commitment of hiring in-house.

I’m qualified in strategy, experienced in sales and marketing, and focused on what works — not what looks good on a mood board!

This is grown-up marketing for businesses ready to invest in the right places, in order to grow.

 

And clients stay with me because they see it working. 

Flexible support. As and how and when you need it. 

How we’ll work together

1

I get to know your business – inside and out

I’ll take a fresh look across your product, pricing, customer experience and marketing, bringing an outside perspective to spot gaps, strengths and opportunities for growth.

2

Spot the hidden growth opportunities

Whether it’s a better route to market, refining your brand message, or finding new customer segments, I’ll identify the ideas with real commercial potential.

3

I’ll put together a plan that makes sense

You won’t be left with a vague strategy or a 42-point checklist you’ll never get round to.You’ll get a clear, tailored marketing plan with defined projects and next steps, so you and your team can focus on the right things, in the right order.

Insights That Drive Growth

A bit more about me

With 25+ years of marketing experience, and the last 10 spent working directly with businesses like yours, I hit the ground running from day one.

 

I know what it’s like when marketing feels like it’s costing more than it’s returning. I also know how to fix that — with practical strategy, focused execution and the kind of leadership that gets the job done without the waste.

 

I work as part of your team, not just a consultant on the sidelines. My job is to help you steer the strategy, focus on what matters, and complement the people you already have.


You get experienced marketing direction, without the cost or risk of a full-time hire.
