My Story

I didn’t always want to be a marketer. To tell the truth, I never knew what one was until my late teens.

You see, I grew up in a working-class family. No one in my family was a marketer. Everyone worked in some form of manual labour. They had done well and got trades

There wasn’t anyone working in the creative industries. Certainly not in advertising or marketing. That was, as it is today, a very middle-class thing to do.

But working a trade didn’t really appeal too much to me. I had always been, from an early age, labelled “creative” and “full of ideas”. Terms I later despised for a time.

Business, selling, and creativity have always fascinated me.

When utilised correctly, marketing has a compounding effect. It should therefore be treated as an investment, not a nice-to-have.

My Personality

I am obsessed with personal development. Not only am I always looking to improve but have a greater understanding of myself to better tell my story.

I am a keen believer that not all flaws need to be polished. It is where the beauty of identity and self are found.

Meyers Briggs Test

Cultures that promote a healthy workplace where leaders facilitate the workers to achieve their goals as opposed to a micromanager who constantly looks over employees’ shoulders, managing their time and is generally too involved and controlling.

On my blog I like to run experiments, test theories, and whereever possible challenge myself not only in terms of growth, and/or change but in the pursuit of knowledge around key characteristics.

Clients That Win

Invest In Their People & Culture.

From my experience, most businesses operate in a bureaucratic or kleptocratic form of management style. That isn’t healthy.

Strategic Thinking

It’s common for businesses to run from tactic to tactic or promotion to promotion and call that marketing. They approach each marketing activity as if it was the first time.

Clear Roles & Responsibilities

Who does what & when? If your business does not have clearly defined roles & responsibilities, it doesn’t have clear functions, this causes internal friction, lack of accountability, communication issues, and inefficient processes.

On my blog I like to run experiments, test theories, and whereever possible challenge myself not only in terms of growth, and/or change but in the pursuit of knowledge around key characteristics.

Productivity

My time is important to me. If punctuality, setting a meeting agenda and being intentional with social interactions.

Emerging Technology

Understanding the communication styles and tool usage preferences is very important internally (communicating with teams) as much as it is externally (communicating with customers).
