Sound familiar?

Your inbox is full of gifting offers and free invitations, but hardly anyone wants to pay you.

You’re brilliant at what you do, but the right people don’t know your name yet.

You’re not sure what to charge, how to pitch yourself or what makes you stand out.

You’ve built an audience, but you’re struggling to turn it into consistent income.

You’d love more speaking invites, podcasts, brand partnerships or clients.

You’re spending hours creating content, but it’s not getting you closer to your goals.

I’ve built, scaled and sold three businesses. I secured Mark Ellis his very first partnership with Porsche, managed talent including Steven Bartlett and worked on NSPCC celebrity partnerships with Anna Williamson and Baroness Karren Brady.

I understand how brands think, what makes a partnership commercially valuable and what it takes to get the right people to take notice.

I also create content for brands including Sofology, DITTO and Emma Sleep. In my second month of taking UGC seriously, I earned enough to pay for a holiday to Mallorca, proving just how quickly the right opportunities can start to add up.

I know what it’s like to put yourself out there, figure things out as you go and build something that gives you more freedom and choice.
