Marketing should be more than just a tick-box exercise – it should have purpose, personality, and real impact. That’s exactly what I’ve built I am Emily Marketing to do. From start-ups finding their feet to established businesses ready for their next big leap, I work with brands that want to stand out, grow, and connect with their audience in a meaningful way.
Now, let’s get to the person behind it all…
I’m Emily, founder of I am Emily Marketing, and if you’d told me years ago that I’d be running a multi-award-winning marketing agency, I probably would have laughed (while sipping a large glass of wine).
I didn’t start talking until I was three years old, but once I did, I never stopped – and now, my job is all about helping brands communicate better.
Over the past 15 years, I’ve worked with businesses of all sizes, from startups to big-name brands, turning bold ideas into strategic marketing that delivers real impact.
I built I am Emily Marketing to give businesses access to expert-level marketing without the hefty in-house costs. Now, I lead a team of hand-picked industry experts, ensuring every client gets tailored, results-driven marketing that helps them stand out.
Doing great work gets noticed! Here are some of the industry awards and recognitions I’ve picked up along the way:

Beyond the business
I believe the best marketing happens when you truly understand people, and that comes from living a life full of experiences, connections, and the occasional chaos.
When I’m not busy crafting brand strategies or leading a marketing revolution, you’ll find me out on long walks with my rescue dog, Maggie, or juggling life with my partner and our five kids (yes, five – send coffee!). Yoga helps me balance things out (mainly to make up for all the eating and drinking I love), and when I get the chance, I’ll happily binge-watch an entire TV series in one weekend. Good food, great wine, and even better company are my idea of the perfect evening – and more often than not, I’m the last one standing.

Proud supporter of local causes
I’m a trustee of Big Purple Pants, a Southend-based charity supporting women living with secondary breast cancer – including one of my close friends, who helped found it. It’s a community-led charity that offers connection, comfort and care to women across Southend and surrounding areas.
Since setting up my business in 2009, I’ve supported charities, CICs and community projects through pro bono and discounted marketing – and that work continues.
