The Sussex Newspaper - Great news for a great county!

Marketing is one of the most important topics when it comes to small business success and growth and I’d even go so far as to say that a business needs to focus at least 60 to 70% on their time on marketing and even more for a start up business, if they would like to experience growth.

Tell us a little about your background
My route leading up to The Feature Writer includes a year living on an Israeli kibbutz, which fuelled a life-long passion for independent travel and learning about other cultures.  Later, the combination of raising my family while studying for a BA (Honours) degree in English as a mature student provided enduring lessons in concise writing, meeting deadlines and time management, as well as further broadening my educational horizons.  I have also studied for and passed a Diploma in Freelance Journalism as well as undertaking further training for my new career.  Learning never stops!
