Bio
Andrea Charles
I have enjoyed working with Ruth over the past couple of years on a number of social media projects. She is a mine of insightful information and has a highly collaborative approach. An excellent communicator, Ruth has a wide network of contacts and is adept at connecting people and creating valuable relationships. Ruth has also provided my business with excellent training on different social media tactics and helpful tips to achieve specific goals. She is both professional and highly personable and I would highly recommend working with Ruth.
Russell McQuillan
Ruth has been working with us now for around 9 months and has totally transferred our marketing approach across web, branding and social media. Our brand, messaging and overall social media presence has gone from ad-hoc to professionally managed. Ruth has taken the time to get to know our company, what drives us as a business and how we want to be seen. Ruth has challenged us to look at things differently and these combined approaches along with her unique quirkiness really shines through in our messaging.

I have been involved in leading, teaching and training in multiple groups and contexts.
