"Marketing is stealing my time and I'm not even doing it well."

If you're scaling up your business to over £200,000 then marketing is essential. But so often it falls to the bottom of the pile as everything else comes first.

Your Marketing Department does what it says on the tin. Takes on your marketing for you so you can have time to continually build the business.

It starts with the marketing strategy and then moves to us delivering for you. Taking a massive weight off your mind.

I write and/or edit and review effective CVs, applications and cover letters, predominately for the military community. I have 14+ years of experience as a qualified HR professional and several years of experience as a freelance writer as well. I offer a military discount to anyone in the military community too.

Are you a business owner and feel overwhelmed and confused by what you need to be doing each week, month and quarter with your money?
