ABOUT
Una started RAVING BRANDS to support clients on a personal basis with everything from branding to marketing strategy, competitor research, social media content and also personal brand promotion.
As well as a long and successful career as a hands-on marketing director and brand communications expert across big national consumer brands, Una has significant experience marketing SMEs and B2B brands and also expertise building and promoting the online presence of personal brands in the arts sector. Una has contributed to the profitable development of over 50 brands in the UK and has worked on some of the UK’s best known sector-leading brands across the food & drink, hospitality, leisure, retail, entertainment, FMCG and performing arts industries.
Una knows from first hand experience that there are always a range of things on the marketing 'to do' list that are barriers to a brand's success - and that's where she can help. As a hands-on and multi-skilled marketer, Una undertakes all the assignments herself, never outsourcing unless with prior agreement, and always being personally accountable for agreed deliverables and results.
Whether your brand is large or small, whether it's new or mature, and whether it's a product, a service, a cause or a real person, Una applies a wealth of experience in a down-to-earth, commercially accountable and practical way. She is always focused on understanding your needs, your customers' or clients' needs, your competitors, market environment and working collaboratively with you to deliver the right solution and the agreed results.
When time allows, Una also supports charitable causes she is passionate about on a pro bono basis.
