Emma Cartledge Marketing Consultancy
  • β€œLaunching a new business while managing ongoing marketing activities can be a lot to handle. Simultaneously we had a gap in marketing team resource. Having Emma Marketing on board provided the extra support we needed to stay focused during the launch. Emma's extensive experience was invaluable, and her contributions to the campaign were instrumental in its success."

    Hannah Rockliffe-Wrigley, Global Marketing Director, Select Property

  • β€œEmma took the hassle away from our team, managing the whole process from selecting a web developer to the build and testing. We were kept engaged throughout and she knew when to get us involved. She was really flexible with her time when we had to adapt to meet the demands on the project and her weekly visits to the office proved invaluable in working together to deliver the new website and portal. If the opportunity arises, I’d love to work with Emma again.”

    Sally Bloor, Head of Marketing, Sciontec

  • β€œEmma really quickly became part of the team and has brought a different perspective. She has developed some great, new ideas and it’s been a pleasure working with her to implement these in the business. It’s been really valuable having a fresh viewpoint. Her sector experience gave her a head start in getting to know our business and she quickly took the lead in driving projects forward.”

    Amanda Taylor, Sales Director, AHR

  • β€œEmma embedded herself with the team, was great fun to work with and got the best out of everyone. Her collaborative approach was perfect for both internal and external stakeholders as well as agencies. She’s not afraid to make the right challenges and provide a different viewpoint. We got some great results.”

    Nicola McGee, Marketing Director, Bruntwood

  • β€œEmma has been great to work with. I’ve been to her with such a broad range of requests and she’s taken to the challenge of tackling each and every one of them. She thinks strategically and has been proactive, advising us where she thinks we need it. Her ability to work independently and engage directly with our team has been a real asset.”

    Steve Reddington, Commercial Director, Dale Power Solutions

  • β€œWe recognise the importance of strategic marketing in achieving our growth targets. Through our collaboration with Emma, we have obtained a comprehensive marketing strategy that aligns with our goals and a strong brand identity that resonates with our target audience.”

    Giulia Dawson, Operations Director, Mainer Associates

What is sustainable marketing?

Recent Client : Bruntwood

Bruntwood is a commercial property specialist operating across the UK with a head office in Manchester. They own and operate coworking, office, retail and hospitality and lab spaces, as well as developing new spaces. They needed temporary support on the marketing strategy and implementation for their Manchester city centre portfolio.

They needed a marketing consultant who could execute the marketing strategy for these properties whilst also being hand-ons in the delivery. The ability to operate independently and liaise with senior figures in the business was also part of the requirement.
