I'm Poppy. Marketing Leader Making the Web a Better Place.
Creating a successful online business is not about how deep your pockets are, it’s about giving your customers what they want, when they want it, and then looking after them once you have their trust.
Understanding this concept will set you above companies who are unable to. My goal is always to maximise the return on your investment and ensure your business goals are being met with the money you invest.

Website Design
Gives Your Business a Competitive Edge. If you want to attract more visitors to your website, I will help you create a responsive and functional website to grow your bottom line.
Website Design
Web design is important because it impacts how your audience perceives your brand. The impression you make on them can either get them to remain on your page and learn about your business or leave your page and turn to a competitor. A good web design helps you keep your leads on your page.
Branding & Logo
A logo is an important part of your company’s brand, and makes a significant impact on a company’s public perception. In fact, a logo is one of the most important branding investments a business can make. A logo can be described as the face of a company.
Content Strategy
The purpose of content strategy is to create meaningful, cohesive, engaging, and sustainable content that attracts the company’s target customers. In today’s social web environment, getting the right message to the right customer at the right time is crucial.
Website Development
It’s surprisingly rare for website to be beautifully designed and technically sound. My goal is to develop websites that excel on both fronts. Through design and usability, I give your customers many great reasons to explore your web pages for longer.
Built from scratch
No one understands your business better than you, and sometimes a cookie-cutter website just won’t do.
By working with you I apply my extensive knowledge to your strategy and branding guidelines, to create a bespoke final product that match the individual needs of your business and that you and your customers/users will love.
choose a premade template
In many instances there is no need to reinvent the wheel, and spend more on a fully unique website. I have experience with hundreds of templates across a number of platforms such as wordpress and shopify. I’ll deliver a high quality site that’s easy to use and manage and I’ll train and support you to use it to its full potential.
Maintenance & Updates
Once your website is up and running I won’t dissapear. Whether you’re looking for a monthly, hourly, or after-hours website maintenance plan, I will provide the experience and expertise your company needs.
Brand Building
Brand Building is generating awareness, establishing and promoting company using strategies and tactics. It is enhancing brand equity using advertising campaigns and promotional strategies.
Personality & purpose
You need to truly define why your organization exists, what your business’s goals are, how big you want the business to grow, and what the business needs to look like to be successful. Brands that embody a deeper sense of purpose have a significant advantage over those that don’t — they have something to say and stand for, not just something to sell
Brand Strategy
Everything you say and do influences the way people perceive your brand. As you set out to create a new brand or take an established brand into the future, the duty is to create a seamless experience that expresses the heart of your brand at every touch point. To do that, you need to start with a foundational strategy for defining and positioning the brand. Where everything from the biggest idea to the smallest detail fits together to create a complete picture of your brand to inspire and connect with your audience.
Story Telling
Stories inspire us. They are the emotional glue that creates meaningful experiences between brands and their audience. Stories speak directly to the human condition and to our hardwired emotions and instincts. Ask yourself, what is our story and why does it matter? Is it meaningful? Great stories build meaningful brands.
Channel Marketing
The rise of social networks and sophisticated digital marketing platforms has rewritten the channel marketing strategy rules. Before you begin to investigate tactics for implementing an effective cross-channel advertising strategy, it’s important to take a broad view of your goals, data, and business.
Understand Your Goals
What are your digital advertising goals? Is the aim to drive awareness and exposure for an emerging brand or product? Are you selling commodity products, and aiming to get them in front of buyers before your competitors? Is it a longer sales cycle, with a high purchase value consideration that requires many touchpoints and a patient approach? Before you spend your first advertising dollar, get to know your business and clearly lay out your objectives.
Data Capture
Not every tactic is going to work well across every channel. As a digital advertiser, it’s important to be flexible, but more importantly, to be informed. As your program expands in breadth and volume, take advantage of all the insights you glean from your paid efforts across channels.
Refine and Optimise
Your audience is a moving target, and the battle for their attention is complicated and dynamic. Compound that with things like rotating inventory and promotional periods and it can be pretty overwhelming. However, sticking to the basics and doing things like search query analysis and product segmentation are core to program growth and improvement. Take the time to reallocate budgets and seize opportunities, and do so often.

“I was totally new to online marketing when I started working with Poppy, I’d say that I wouldn’t be where I am right now had she not hired me to join the affiliate marketing team back when she was still the manager. She was a great mentor who gave a lot of independence and opportunity for growth (both personally and professionally). Poppy is an expert in her field and it was no surprise when she was promoted to VP – she led a very promising and talented team of marketing staff, helped the company with several contract negotiations which eventually led to the company’s growth and increased in revenue“
“”Poppy is hardworking, energetic, and inspiring. Always ready to take challenges head on, she has brought the department to various levels of success. As she took on the VP role, she has quickly transformed marketing operations with her energy, zeal, and inventiveness. Poppy is a terrific person, a great colleague, and an inspiring manager who I learned a great deal from. I enjoyed working with her immensely and hope that we have the opportunity to work together in the future. A joy to work with, Poppy is simply one of the best colleagues I ever worked with“.“

I found her to be very passionate and dedicated towards work so much that she inspires the people she works with. As then head of the human resources department, it was also a pleasure to see her looking after her staff and be genuinely concerned with their welfare. If I were to describe Poppy in just one word, it would be “beautiful.” For that is what she is – beautiful inside and out. She was truly a pleasure to work with“
