I am an experienced event professional who can offer a professional event experience in all aspects of event, promotion and marketing management. Event and marketing promotions should create an experience. This experience needs to be memorable. You need it to be memorable for all the right reasons. This takes time (often lots of time that you don't have). This can be stressful (often a drain on your energy and resource). This can be expensive (often a complete turn off, why waste your money?). This can cause problems (often it's the little things that are are easily overlooked). Alternatively I can supply time, energy and budget control; together with strong attention to detail, coupled with an innovative and creative approach. Whether you need a few hours of advice and guidance or a full project management service I am fortunate to have event and marketing experience across a range of industries. Blue chip client event and marketing references available on request. On special occasions I enjoy a glass of pink fizz and I would be delighted to have the opportunity to raise a glass to you - cheers, thank you for your interest.

      Karen knew immediately what was required for this large national exhibition, how to do it within my budget and took me by my hand and guided me through the whole process. She handpicked the person to help me at the stand and needless to say the returns were head turning on the days. Result: one client enquiry before I had time to send out the follow-up letters and another 11 hot leads that I now hope to convert into clients.
