think Ahead
Marketing can be rewarding, but it can also feel overwhelming when you're responsible for delivering results and have nobody to validate your plans or to bounce ideas off.
This is especially true for marketing managers and assistants working in smaller businesses, where they may be the only marketing person in the organisation.
With more than 30 years of marketing experience, including Director-level roles and Fellowship of the Chartered Institute of Marketing (FCIM), I provide practical, supportive marketing mentoring to help marketers build confidence, develop their skills and achieve better results.

Are you suffering from cotton wool brain in terms of your marketing?
My role is not to tell you what to do. Instead, I act as an experienced sounding board, helping you work through challenges, explore opportunities and make informed decisions. Whether you're creating a marketing strategy, planning campaigns, reporting to senior leadership or managing competing priorities, mentoring gives you access to experienced guidance whenever you need it.
Many of the marketers I support are looking for more structure in their role. Together, we develop clear marketing plans, align activities with business objectives and create practical ways to measure performance. I help mentees move beyond simply delivering marketing activity and focus on understanding what is driving results and where improvements can be made.
That’s where I come in with my support and guidance as a marketing mentor..
Every mentoring relationship is tailored to the individual. Some people need support building confidence and influencing stakeholders, while others want help developing strategic thinking, managing workload or accelerating their career progression. Whatever your challenge, you'll have a trusted marketing professional on hand to provide perspective, encouragement and constructive challenge.
If you're a marketing manager, marketing executive or marketing assistant looking for expert support, marketing mentoring can help you work more effectively, develop professionally and create greater impact for your business.

Clare helped me organise my content marketing ideas and provided useful recommendations for our company brochure and website design. Her input was invaluable and it was great to have someone to bounce ideas off.
