In November 2013 I joined IMAGE Magazine in preparation of the launch of their latest Title - BASH Wedding magazine. My mission was to achieve the advertising sales targets on a brand new magazine in a competitive market. Having successfully met with these targets I was later promoted as the Advertising Director of IMAGE Interiors & Living Magazine. I excelled in creating bespoke partnerships and inspiring concepts to assist brands to maximise their presence in print and online. Being creative and sales driven was integral to the success of my role, and with the assistance of the editorial and design team concepts became a reality. Other duties included, planning, forecasting, prospecting, lead generation, competitor analysis, cold calling, meeting & exceeding weekly sales targets, develop & update pipelines, update CRM system, attend debtor and senior management meetings. To identify new opportunities and concepts, brainstormed and worked closely with the editorial & design team. Coordinated content & art work with clients & production team and overseen sign off on production day. In addition to this there was always an opportunity to cross sell in IMAGE magazine,Garden Heaven, online with IMAGE.ie , Businesswoman of the year Awards, Sponsorship & events. Customer care was an integral part of my role and building relationships with clients and keeping them informed of opportunities as they arose. I represented and presented IMAGE PLC to international brand agencies, PR companies and Marketing Managers, liaised with decision makers and converted sales. The IMAGE sales team is at the epicenter of each title and some of the most momentous occasions we shared was when we all rowed together to get that ship across the line… GO TEAM ;-)

In July 2011; I opened the doors to an Art Studio for all ages in the leafy village of Ashford in the hope of salvaging my skills & experiences as a designer.
