Pelagion Marketing

Last week I had the privilege of presenting at a couple of events to help small businesses think differently about marketing.

We often rush around just trying to get content out there, hoping we throw enough mud at the wall, some of it will stick.

But here’s the thing.

If we take a step back, look at where we really are now, where we want to get to, and plan… who our audience is, where they hang out and when, what message we want to send… then we can create content that really does deliver results.

You don’t need more marketing noise.
You need a plan that actually makes sense for your business.

That’s exactly why I created Pelagion Pioneers.

A small-group marketing and strategy membership for business owners who are tired of:
❌ second-guessing every decision
❌ jumping between tactics
❌ feeling like they’re “doing marketing” but not seeing momentum

Inside Pelagion Pioneers, you’ll get:
✨ Strategic direction
✨ Monthly accountability
✨ Practical action plans
✨ Expert guidance
✨ A supportive community of ambitious business owners

No fluff.
No overwhelming courses collecting dust.
Just clear, focused support to help you move forward confidently.

It’s just £25/month
And it’s intentionally limited to 14 members so everyone gets proper support.

A few places are already gone.

If you want to head into the second half of 2026 with more clarity, consistency and confidence…

Once the 14 places are filled, doors close.

So your marketing is eating your time but it still isn’t working.

Thinking of hiring a junior marketer because it feels like the safe next step?

On paper it makes complete sense.

You hire someone full-time. Keep everything in-house. Build the team.

But there’s usually a bit more to the maths.

A junior marketing hire might look like:

Salary: £25k
Employer NI: £2.5–3k+
Pension contributions: £750–1k+
Recruitment fees: £2.5–5k
Onboarding time: 3–6 months before they’re fully up to speed
Management time: yours… every week

And one thing often gets missed:

Strategy still isn’t included.

Because junior marketers aren’t typically there to build the roadmap. They’re there to help deliver it.

So year one can easily become £33–40k+ before you even get to momentum.

That doesn’t mean junior hires are a bad move.

Far from it.

They’re brilliant when you already have:

✔ Clear direction
✔ A strategy in place
✔ Processes
✔ Someone to lead them

But I see a lot of businesses hire ex*****on before they hire clarity.

Then wonder why content feels inconsistent, campaigns feel reactive and marketing starts becoming another thing on the to-do list.

The first hire isn’t always the person posting on social media.

Sometimes it’s the person helping you work out:

Who you’re targeting.
What you should actually be saying.
Where your time and budget should go.

Then once the foundations are there?

Bring in the executor and let them fly.

A couple of weeks ago, I quietly opened the Pelagion Pioneers waitlist…
and honestly, I’ve been blown away by the response already.

But here’s the thing:
There are still a few spots left — and if you’ve been watching from the sidelines, this is your nudge.

Pelagion Pioneers was born from countless conversations with brilliant business owners who were tired of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to focus next.

So I created a space where you get:
✨ Strategic clarity
✨ Real accountability
✨ Action plans you can implement immediately
✨ A supportive group of people who actually get it

It’s £25/month.
It’s intentionally capped at 14 people.
And it’s already filling.

If you want to step into the second half of 2026 with direction, confidence and a strategy that actually works…

It’s always a great feeling when you get good feedback from a client and this morning was one of those times!

I joined my fellow members of Wolds BNI (Beverley and East Yorkshire) for our in person breakfast meeting and was presented with this lovely testimonial from Mark Edwards of Alec W G Hall Outfitters.

It was a sensitive project and I was so privileged they chose me for the job.

Most people don’t have a motivation problem.
They have a clarity problem.

When you’re clear on:
– who you help
– the problem you solve
– and the outcome you create

Marketing stops feeling like noise… and starts working like a system.

You don’t need more ideas.
You need better direction.

Because when the strategy is right,
confidence follows.
Consistency follows.
Results follow.

If your marketing feels harder than it should right now, it’s not a sign to do more.

It’s a sign to zoom out and get sharper.

Clarity first. Everything else second.
