Your work is too beautiful to stay hidden.
I work with founders of premium services and lifestyle brands - helping them build the visibility and recognition their work deserves.
BOOK A POWER HOUR"The founders I work with treat their business as a craft. The marketing should be no different."
Catherine Storey - Founder, Freshbat
The position
01
There's a particular kind of founder I work with.
They've built something with real care. The product or service is exceptional, the brand has a point of view, the clients who find them become loyal.
But the marketing has always felt slightly off. Too loud, too generic, too far from the world they've actually created.
The problem isn't that they haven't tried. It's that most marketing is treated as a commodity - a volume exercise, a funnel, a set of tactics to execute on a budget. That approach is entirely wrong for a business built on craft.
When the work is exceptional, the marketing needs to be too. Not louder, but better. Designed with the same care the founder brings to what they actually make or do.
That's the standard I work to.
Commercially literate. Brand literate. Because you need both.
15 years of marketing experience, including senior roles at L'Occitane and The Body Shop, and as Head of Marketing in the independent school sector. I've worked from the inside of premium brands and I've built one of my own.
I now work with founders who want their marketing to reflect the quality of what they do. Through CS Ltd I offer direct strategic consultancy. Through Freshbat, the agency I founded, we deliver the full outsourced marketing function.
