Well, that was a surprise I can tell you. For those of you who know, and some who don’t, my other day job involves creating posh stationery. I set up the brand Text From A Friend a couple of years ago and it has grown quite considerably in the last two years since I purchased my very own foil press and took control of printing.
Read MoreI decided that I really should blog more and what better way to show off the talented clients I get to work with. I met Heather through another client and have gone on to work with her for the last few years on a couple of different projects. As an ex-Wella Educator, she decided to go it alone and that’s when she came to me. I love working with startups and new business because there’s nothing more scary and exciting and we’ve all been there. There’s nothing better than seeing people succeed and grow. You’re brilliant Heather. Here’s her interview. Enjoy.

Read MoreWell, let me put you straight. This particular post isn’t about my long ago tale of lost romance (if you could call it that), it’s actually about a client request. However, it did get me thinking to that one time in my life someone said ‘We should get married’. Or at least I think that’s how it went down.
Read MoreWhen Pole Junkie reached out to me (yes I did use that awful American phrase but hey, ignore that) around 18 months ago to chat to me about a rebrand, they had already made a dent in the pole apparel world. They wanted to take it up a notch which is where I came in. So when they recently won a Business of the Year award we thought why not share that news with everyone. Even the non pole community amongst us.
Read MoreWhy the shame? Because I berate my clients for not blogging enough. I need to take my own advice. So what have I been doing? No, I haven't been gallivanting around the world as some people think. I know I have a penchant for leaving the country rather frequently but I've been in good old miserable Glasgow. And by miserable I mean the weather as it hasn't exactly been a summer of sun has it?
Read MoreAlong with all of the other Scottish Islands, Skye was on my list as I'd always dreamt of exploring more of what's on my doorstep rather than jumping on a plane every month or so. After all, there's an amazing array of scenery within a few hours drive of Glasgow, so what better way to explore the motherland in short weekend bursts. That's the way to do it I think.
