Meet Your Marketing Coach
Hello, I’m Claire
I live in beautiful North Yorkshire with my lovely family, Meggie the dog and a flock of rescue chickens.
I started The Girls Mean Business back in 2011 because I wanted to help women build businesses that actually make them money, without needing a marketing degree, a massive budget or all day to spend messing around on social media.
These days I help women work out how to get more people seeing their business, turn that attention into customers and sales, and make marketing feel a lot less complicated.
Never miss a thing
Good things in your inbox a few times a week
