Hellooo, I’m Bridie and I want to you to be SEEN and HEARD, just like you deserve
It’s my driving force to ensure no one misses out on how incredible you are. And while you’re website, you’re social content, your emails… they’re all important parts of your small business marketing, I don’t want you to miss out on the impact PR and personal branding will have in helping you become trusted as an expert.
Through my signature one-to-one mentoring package alongside courses, workshops, and other helpful resources, I don’t do your PR for you, because I believe you can do it yourself.
As a small business, it’s so much more effective for you to learn these skills so that promoting your small business and seizing opportunities becomes an easeful and natural part of your marketing.
I guide small business owners through the process of getting booked as an expert to guest on podcasts, write expert articles, speak at events, and land press features. A key part of this is supporting small business owners to build a media kit and write pitches, – so you are being proactive about putting yourself forward for PR opportunities.
As well as landing PR opportunities, I help small business owners position themselves as an expert through their messaging and online presence.
If this sounds like what you need, check out my one-to-one PR mentoring.
I work with small business owners including experts, consultants, strategists as well as product businesses, makers and artists… because when I say ‘expert’, that just means you know loads about what you do.
You have tried and tested experience in your arena and know what creates an impact. My job is to make sure that impact is incredibly obvious to your beloved community.
I worked for some of the world’s most pioneering curators and artists at some of the UK’s most respected arts institutions, including the Serpentine Galleries, Institute of Contemporary Arts, Whitechapel Gallery, as well as award-winning PR agencies.
Managing the galleries’ reputation and communicating the expertise of their Directors, I also led PR campaigns from obscure to celebrity and from local to global. I developed partnerships with BBC Arts, Dazed Media, Arts Council England, NOWNESS, Swarovski, Max Mara, Artek, and Crossrail.
I live in Bristol with my civil partner, Rich, and our baby, Cai.
In no particular order, I love: reading, learning, sunbathing, cycling, skiing, forest walks, mountain walks, coffee, writing, doing nothing with friends but chatting and laughing, doing things with friends, holidays, being arty, making things look beautiful, and eating sweet things.
A fun fact about me is that when I was 14, I became the National Cycling Champion and National 200m Record Holder. Cycling at that level left quite an impression on my poor lil teen self. l learnt the value of mindset, dedication, resilience, grit, failure, heartbreak, and why no matter how much something means to me; fun is essential.
Another fun fact is my weirdest job was working for £40 a day in an artist’s house alongside her whip display.
I’d love to help you get seen and heard.
