One of the smart kids at school challenged me to a chess match in which he promised to beat me in three moves.I was more creative than nerdy which must have made him think I would be a straightforward opponent.Three moves in and there was no check mate. Another three moves followed, and then six, and 10, but still no result until... he gave up to go and find an easier victim.What neither he nor I realised at the time is that I was also a thinker and a planner who loved problem solving and developing strategies.Fast forward to today and those inherent capabilities are no longer being directed at a chess board but towards the fields of AI, Automations, Marketing and Online Reputation Management.I got to this point by spending years working at a senior level in a top-flight agency, tackling everything from feature writing to ecommerce, product descriptions to 3PL management, branding exercises to Shopify, customer service to marketing strategies, writing press releases and lots more besides (please see my skills profile).My skills helped ExxonMobil Chemical (internal and community communications), Transport Scotland (public awareness-raising campaign and major road openings), Anstruther Fish Bar (marketing-led website redevelopment), North West Cancer Research (branding and marketing-led website redevelopment), BT Scotland (internal communications) and Sparrows Group (website redevelopment and management) to name but a few.In short, if you need a hand, I'd love to help through my agency, Maxton AI, and I promise to be around long after the first three moves.
