We love hearing what our clients have to say after we’ve completed work. Below are a few lovely comments off past and current clients!
“Wow!! We at Middlewich Town Council have just benefited from a fantastic marketing training session led by Emma from Bare Bones Marketing. Like a lot of local authorities we spend a fair proportion of our budget on marketing, but with little knowledge of what actually works for us, in terms of the areas in which we advertise, and the format of marketing we use. In a focused, managed and enjoyable one day course, Emma led us skillfully through a marketing strategy, helped us to create a new branding and worked to improve our design and style of promotional material. Emma also opened up the potential for effective use of social media, blogging and convinced us of the advantages of quality PR. All this delivered in a straightforward, down to earth manner, using language and terminology that everyone could understand. I now know why getting down to the ‘Bare Bones’ is the perfect name for Emma’s company. What Emma won’t do is leave your marketing budget bare!! Excellent training content, excellent presentation and excellent value for money. A winning combination if ever there was one!”
Jonathan Williams, Middlewich Town Council
“Emma has done several workshops for Forward Ladies on Marketing and Branding. In fact the first one she did was over subscribed and I had to book her again to repeat it. The best thing about Emma’s workshop is that she explains everything in a logical and clear way so that everybody understands. She doesn’t baffle with fancy jargon so everybody comes away brimming with new ideas and full of praise for Emma. The feedback from Emma’s workshops has been consistently enthusiastic and I would have no hesitation in booking her again”.
Sue France, Forward Ladies
“We recently engaged Emma Dalzell of Bare Bones Marketing to design our website and to provide training on how to use and update the website and also how to use Linked In to support our business. Emma quickly grasped and understood the core values of Cindy & Co. and also understood the key messages and the tone of the messages that we wanted the website to be written in. Throughout the whole process Emma and her team were helpful and supportive and I would happily engage them again in the future.”
Cindy Adegbile, Cindy & Co
“I cannot praise Emma and the Bare Bones team highly enough with regard to the advice and support they have given me over the last two years. As a new business owner, I quickly realised that I had little marketing experience and that I needed help, and quickly. I booked a one hour marketing session with Emma, where we went through everything I had already put in place, and we came up with a plan of action for the next few months. Since then we have continued to work together, most recently with regard to the production of my new website www.patodayuk.co.uk and new brand, logo, etc.”
“I would highly recommend Emma and her team to any business who needs some professional marketing support for their business.”
Pam Allen, PA Today
“I had heard Emma speak previously on the subject of Marketing and needed some extra help. We set up a meeting and I provided Emma with what it was I was looking to get out of it. She understood my business needs perfectly and after a very productive meeting, me writing away and Emma giving lots of advice I began my strategy. The first thing I needed to do was a Press Release as the business had recently been sold to a new owner. Emma helped me by editing my first attempt and through this release we have been approached by Chester Cathedral to hold an exhibition in 2014 this is a great opportunity to promote our Club even further. I must admit I knew she was talking sense but I didn’t appreciate just how much until this happened. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone who is looking to increase their business profile. She explains things clearly so that you walk away from a meeting invigorated, prepared and eager to begin marketing your business. I will definitely be using her services again.”
Dawn Robertson, Matchbox Club
“I’d recommend Bare Bones Marketing to any educational institution (or anyone else for that matter!) who needs to market themselves and needs someone to guide them along the way. Bare Bones Marketing used a down-to-earth and honest approach and somehow made it look straightforward.”
Michael Hughes, St Dominic’s Priory School
“Emma and her company order diazepam from uk have done a great job with helping me sort out my marketing. They’ve provided great support in getting me up and running with social networking, created a fab new website, generated some fantastic PR and given me a really strong platform from which to promote my business. Emma and her team are really personable, attentive and consistently open and honest in their approach. I look forward to working with Bare Bones and Emma in the future.”

“It was no surprise to me that Emma won her award at the South Cheshire Chamber last night, having personally spent time with Emma working on the marketing of my own business, PA Today. I first came across Emma earlier this year. I was looking for someone to support me with marketing, and after being introduced to Emma, I knew she was the one I wanted to work with. After exchanging a couple of emails, we met, and I have to say that our meeting was very successful and excellent value for money. For an hour and a half we reviewed everything I had done so far, and put together a plan of what I should do next. It was great! I would highly recommend Emma and Bare Bone Marketing to any business”
Pam Allen, PA Today
“Emma is extremely knowledgable, professional and great to work with. Our meetings really help to keep me focused. With Emma’s help I have so far, written my marketing plan, created a new website, business portfolio and I’m currently working on my blog. I would happily recommend Emma and the high standards of her work to anyone.”
Sarah Kinder, M3 Media Publishing
“Emma was a complete success at Merchant Taylors’ Girls’ School. Emma provided an interactive presentation at an event ‘Thinking about your Future’ on the 1st June to Lower Sixth Girls. Her brief was to discuss ‘How to brand you.’ She made the presentation fun and most importantly she made students think by asking the year group to discuss, ‘What is a brand?’ ‘What brands do we know?’ ‘What people are brands?’ ….. she posed the questions to each student ‘What three words represent you?’ What impression do you want to give potential employers in the future? She explored the concept of social media and how this can be used to network, find employment in the future but most importantly how to use this to your advantage as well as discussing the dangers! Excellent! I hope we can book her again for next year!”
Susan Burke, Merchant Taylor’s School for Girls
“Emma is doing a great job helping me organise and concentrate my marketing efforts. Our monthly meeting gives me the continued focus I need to drive my business forward. So far we have worked on my marketing plan, my target prospects, and designed a brochure highlighting the true USP’s EasyOnlineRecruitment.co.uk offers. It’s great knowing you Emma, I’m sure we’ll be in touch for many years to come, and I look forward to “clinking” a glass of champagne when I have my first £Million in the bank.”
Adam Butler, Talent Attraction & Online Recruitment Advertising Specialist
“Emma did some work for me at one of the charities I work with – we were really struggling with a marketing concept and she unstuck us perfectly! She really got to grips with what we were trying to do, what we needed to achieve and understood our constraints. She really quickly came up with some really refreshing creative ideas which helped us to think differently. We have a clear idea of what we want to do next, and somehow it suddenly all seems so simple! Thank you!”
Isla Wilson, Director & Founder RubyStar Associates
“My name is Clippy and I’m the founder of Clippy’s Apples, we’re the first ever company to launch a commercially made ‘British Apple Jam’ into the UK’s supermarkets. We are a very small company but with big ambitions to become a UK household name. Emma from Bare Bones Marketing has really helped us to define our marketing plan without coming across as an ex-director from a big UK firm. Emma went into great detail about the Clippy’s brand and how we can achieve our dream. I would highly recommend the Bare Bones approach which is warm, friendly and passionate about delivering the best options for small business which are realistic.”
Clippy McKenna, Founder, Clippys Limited
“Emma recently undertook some marketing work for us at Changing Lives in Cheshire- she had fantastic ideas, worked brilliantly within our budget and worked to our impatient timescales- she was fab!”
