Hi Reader,
I'm just popping in quickly to wish you a happy holiday season. I'm not sure what you celebrate or don't, but I'm celebrating you.
Thank you for being with me this year – whether that's by working with me, reading my newsletters or commenting on my social media posts.
If, like me, you're finishing up today for the season and still sat at your desk – I hope you get to finish up soon. Go watch that cheesy Christmas film, or whatever makes you happy and chill for a while. Decompress, because 2025 has been quite a year!
I know some people are working over the break, either on their own business or in paid work. Are you like me – taking the first few days off, then starting to think about the new year, goals and what you want to be doing in 2026 to move your business forward?
Last year I joined Hannah Isted's 'Best 90 Days Ever', a marketing membership. A 10-minute marketing task is shared daily for you to take on - from social media, SEO, PR, and more. There's a community of business owners inside the group - hello accountability! It can and does work. It got me to the House of Lords for a report I designed this year. A new client, the Publishers Association, found me via Google through a blog I wrote following Hannah's prompts. The next round starts in January and I've signed up again because I know it works. If you're stuck with your marketing, sign up here* – if you put the effort in, it can work for you too.
If you need a hand designing reports or anything else marketing-related for your business, I'm here. Whether it's a one-off project or retainer work, I'm available from February 2026. Book a call with me here to see how I can help.
Keep celebrating you. Write down three brilliant things you did this year – work-related or personal. If you can't think of any straight away, go through your calendar to check where you went (a networking group? An online webinar?) and who you had calls or a coffee with. I bet there's something there to give yourself a pat on the back for. Celebrate you!
Have a restful and peaceful break,
Ange
