Is digital marketing worth it for small businesses?

In one word: YES.

Digital marketing helps your small business grow by increasing visibility, attracting new customers and building lasting relationships.

Unlike traditional (offline) marketing, it allows you to target specific audiences, track performance and adjust strategies in real time — making it a cost-effective and powerful tool for business growth.

How are you different from other digital agencies?

Agencies often take a one-size-fits-all approach and can experience high levels of staff turnover, affecting the continuity of your relationships and marketing.

In contrast, you’ll be working directly with me — I’ve been in the game since 2013 and I’m not going anywhere.

I prioritise personalised, strategic, permaculture-infused marketing tailored for small business owners who are short on time but big on ideas. It’s practical, results-driven and designed for steady long-term success.

How long does it take to see results from digital marketing?

Digital marketing isn’t an overnight fix — it’s a long-term strategy. In fact, I deliberately steer away from quick-fix gimmicks, as they tend to feel icky, pushy and inauthentic to the very audience you’re trying to build a relationship with.

Some tactics, such as paid ads, can drive immediate traffic and sales, while organic methods such as search engine optimisation (SEO) and content marketing can take a few months to build momentum.

I focus on sustainable strategies that deliver lasting growth rather than quick but short-lived wins.

Do I need to be on every social media platform?

No! The best approach is to focus on the platforms where your ideal customers are most active AND that you most enjoy posting to — because if you’re having fun, you’re much more likely to show up consistently.

I help small businesses develop a marketing strategy that identifies the right channels to maximise engagement and results, so you don’t waste time and money on platforms that don’t serve your goals.

Can you help if I already have a website but it's not performing well?

Yes, this is one of my areas of specialisation.

If your website isn’t attracting visitors or converting them into customers, it’s usually due to a visibility or messaging issue.

I can help by identifying the cause and recommending solutions, including search engine optimisation (SEO), content improvements, clearer messaging and other strategic tweaks. Often, small changes lead to significant gains in traffic and conversions.
