"I've had the pleasure of working with Cat across several businesses over the past 10+ years, and without hesitation, I can say she’s one of the best in the industry. Her strategic marketing approach is second to none, she takes the time to truly understand you, your goals, and your business, then somehow translates all of that into clear, manageable steps you can actually run with.
One of the things I value most is that you never feel silly for not knowing something. Cat explains things without judgement and is always ready to guide you through. She’s also brilliant at spotting opportunities and exploring ideas you might not have considered.
If you’re looking for a marketer who knows their stuff, puts you at ease, and supports you every step of the way, Cat is the one."
Rhoda Peckitt, Business Owner, Influential Accounting
"I’ve worked with Cat across multiple projects for over 10 years, and she has been an invaluable partner throughout. Strategic and insightful, she has a real talent for spotting opportunities that others might miss and for ensuring every piece of work is aligned to the bigger picture. Her attention to detail is second to none, and her work with Nine Yard Marketing reflects a rare mix of strategic thinking, commercial awareness, and thoroughness. Always a pleasure to work with and someone I would not hesitate to recommend."

Embedded, Flexible and Impactful
Whether it’s 2 or 8 days a month, I become part of your team, bringing outside perspective with inside understanding. I get under the skin of your brand and business to make sure you are pulling the right levers in your marketing.
Without The Overhead
An Experienced Marketer
Outsourcing to an independent marketing consultant, like me, is the most cost-effective and efficient way of building marketing momentum and moving your business forwards. I bring the strategic thinking and experienced oversight your business needs to stay focused, agile and accountable, without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.
Fractional Marketing
Know you need some consistent marketing support but not ready to hire in-house just yet? Or do you have a fabulous marketing team but they are stretched and over capacity? When you need senior-level marketing leadership, without the full-time cost, I step in as your Fractional Head of Marketing.
