As the founder of Hi Communications and author of The Best 90 Days Ever, she's also the queen of 10 Minute Marketing. We chat to her about her transformational approach to marketing, where she breaks down your to-do list into small daily chunks to overcome the overwhelm and actually post, with a sneaky preview of her book too.

It’s April, so you know what means: reflecting on our Q1 experiences as small business owners, and sharing our plans and goals for Q2.

Created for small businesses specifically, the team behind it have collated hundreds of opportunities into one place: from markets and pop ups across the UK for in person selling, to shops looking for new brands to stock, to a live feed of journalists looking for PR products to feature in upcoming articles. Plus within the platform there are groups to meet like-minded businesses, grow your community, share problems and discuss ideas to help you grow your business.
