Honest, practical talks about email marketing for small businesses
I’ve spoken for Enterprise Nation, Amazon, Lloyds Bank, BT, Vodafone, Constant Contact, Digital Boost, Small Business Saturday, and Small Business Britain. The audience is almost always the same: small business owners who know email marketing matters but aren’t quite doing it.
My talks are practical, jargon-free, and designed to leave people feeling like they can actually do this — not overwhelmed by everything they haven’t done yet.
The Guilt List: why small businesses stop emailing their list and what to do about it
Available: in person and online · 30 to 60 minutes · Q&A available
Most small business owners have an email list. Most of them feel guilty about not using it. This talk gets to the heart of why that happens. And it’s almost never about laziness or lack of ideas.
It’s about not having a simple enough process to follow. In this talk, I break down why email marketing feels harder than it should for small service businesses, what gets in the way, and what a realistic, sustainable approach actually looks like.
Key points:
- Your audience will leave with practical ideas they can use straight away, not a to-do list that adds to their overwhelm.
- The tone is warm, honest, and relatable — no jargon, no lectures, no complicated systems.
- Works well for business networks, membership organisations, chambers, and B2B events whose audiences include established small service businesses.
