Meet Denise – Small Business Marketing Consultant in Edinburgh

Lovely to meet you!

Hello, I’m Denise Strohsahl, a small business marketing consultant helping you find the right marketing to grow. 

In my experience, the hardest thing about small business marketing is to find your own, unique voice.

A lot of people have a preconceived notion of what marketing has to look and sound like. But marketing should be as unique as your business. It should reflect the way you’re doing business, your values & your goals. It’s a result of your business, not an add-on or necessary evil.

If I’ve learned anything in my +19 years in marketing – working with both small & large businesses –, it’s that marketing is a longterm game. It’s not a quick fix and it needs both a solid strategy & execution to help you grow your small business.

Small business marketing with a customer focus

In small business marketing, it’s not just about what you do, but about how you do it. And every business relies on paying customers to make a living. So for me, the only sustainable way to promote your business is to focus on your customer. Make your business about helping them and it’s a win-win.

That’s why I started sandstonecastles marketing in 2010: To use my background in copywriting & marketing to help other small business owners achieve their goals. And Edinburgh seemed just the right place for it.

I’m a sole trader, not an agency (which is reflected in my marketing rates). But over the years, I have built up a network of talented sole traders & freelancers and we have successfully worked together on numerous small business marketing projects. 

From web developers, illustrators, graphic & brand designers, photographers, SEO specialists through to copywriters & PPC experts – no project is too small or too big when it comes to helping you grow your small business.

Do you have any questions or would you like some help with your small business marketing? Then have a look at my marketing services & rates or get in touch and we’ll have a chat to see how we can work together!
