“Sea air and cozy fires, two of my favourite things. Sailing is a key part of my life, be it on the water or on land as the support crew for my daughter. Love the outdoors, so always open for a netwalk if anyone fancies it. Nothing like blowing away cobwebs to think straight.”
Your Marketing Department (YMD) is a strategy-led, outsourced marketing department for ambitious, founder-led businesses who know their marketing matters, but don’t want the noise, fluff or guesswork that often comes with it.
Most of the people I work with are great at what they do. They’ve built solid businesses, often through reputation and referrals, but reach a point where marketing feels messy, inconsistent, or overly reliant on them personally.
That’s where we come in.
At YMD, we help businesses do marketing properly — starting with clear strategy, deep customer understanding and sensible decision-making, then supporting the delivery so it actually happens.
What makes us different:
We lead with strategy first, not tactics
We take the time to really understand the business and its customers
We act as a calm, senior marketing partner, not a supplier shouting for attention
We work as an extension of the team, bringing structure, clarity and focus
We’re proudly military-spouse-led, which shapes how we work: adaptable, dependable, and straight-talking
Clients often tell us the biggest benefit isn’t just better marketing, but the relief that comes from knowing someone has their back and is thinking clearly about what matters most.
We work best with businesses who value trust, are open to being challenged, and want marketing that supports long-term growth — not quick wins for the sake of it.
If you’re feeling that marketing should be doing more for your business, but you’re not sure where to start, I’m always happy to have a sensible, no-pressure conversation.
