The simple mantra you need to succeed with marketing featuring Jacqui Patton, Founder of Ink Blot Creative

Today I’m joined by Jacqui Patton, Founder of Ink Blot Creative.

After training as an actress, Jacqui’s life took some twists and turns, including an eye-watering stint as the lady behind the number dishing out hair removal emergency advice at Veet, before finding her way into the world of marketing.

A truly natural and masterful communicator, it’s no surprise that a simple (yet radically candid) conversation with the new CEO accidentally landed her the role of Head of Comms at RBS International.

There she honed her craft and when life radically shook up her perspective, she decided to take on a new challenge and left the corporate world to forge her own path by starting Ink Blot Creative.

Having been a client of agencies for many years, she spent quite a while trying to do what everyone else was doing in the same way that they were doing it.

But she soon realised the clients she and her team got most excited about, were the ones a little bit like them (and us)! People that are building a growing business and want a helping hand to make it the best it can possibly be.

In this episode we discuss:
