Free Guide: The Minimalist Marketing Method – How to Book 5 New Clients This Month (Without Relying on Social Media)
Marketing coaching for small business with your biscuit-loving Marketing Strategist
Because your Monday mornings shouldn’t start with marketing panic
Ever open your laptop determined to “finally sort your marketing this week” but end up closing it two hours later with nothing to show except decision fatigue? You’re an expert in your field and your clients get awesome results, but marketing your business feels like assembling IKEA furniture without the instructions. I’m sure you didn’t start your business to become head of marketing. You started it to use your skills, help people, and create the freedom you crave. But somewhere between client calls and delivery, marketing got pushed to the bottom of your list. Again.
Grab the Bourbons…

Hi, I’m Emma Hodges
Marketing Strategist, slow-living enthusiast, and the person who believes your marketing should work as hard as you do (but take up way less of your time).
I help service providers stop winging their marketing and start attracting dream clients consistently. No more checking your bank balance with one eye closed. No more lying awake wondering if you should take that not-quite-right client “just in case”.
After 25 years in marketing and 10 years running my own business, I know exactly what works (and what’s just noise).
