FounderDuet Journal Jun 2023 - PresentAs a former retailer (working for a market leader - B&Q, and then an international startup - Kingfisher), I understand the demands of the industry. Working with Duetists from across the world in retail and consumer goods allows me to retain that passion. I love celebrating the wins and commiserating the misses with founders and MDs. I work with employees and then support some as they leave. I enjoy encouraging Duetists to take the next steps in their careers. Anonymous journaling offers release. -
Executive GhostwriterDuet Journal Mar 2012 - Jul 2023Ghostwriting content for executives 2012 - 2023. It was a fun ride and 40,000 followed me here. I now enjoy helping retail and consumer goods professionals find their voices... rather than lending them mine. The passion for retail never truly left me.

FounderSeaside Retail Community Jul 2024 - PresentDo you ever wish that you could chat to someone about your retail ideas? The thoughts that you wrote down, but then threw into the bin. Scrumpled ideas deserve a second opinion. You can’t talk to your competitor down the road, that’s for sure. Independent retail can be a lonely place. Especially when your seaside shop is empty for half the year. Do you yearn to be part of something bigger?When you become a Seatailer (with product exclusivity for your retail location), you join a community of seaside retail experts. The Seaside Retail Community will open on 17th April 2025. It is for UK seaside retailers – in these product areas: souvenirs, gifts, luxury, art, beach, surf, spiritual, food, drink, clothing, books, farm shop. In the pre-opening phase, founder members will drive its development. We are initially aiming for 250+ Seatailers, with a hope of 500+ as the community evolves. -
