Support for all kinds of creative business owners

Types of small businesses I love to work with

I work with small business owners who don’t love looking at the numbers, need support managing their stock and ordering more confidently, or want help getting their Shopify set up and running smoothly behind the scenes.

I especially love supporting creative businesses, such as:

  • Slow fashion brands
  • Jewellers
  • Homeware and lifestyle stores
  • Potters and ceramicists
  • Artists and makers
  • Shop keepers and independent retailers
  • Beauty and skincare brands
  • Fabric and haberdashery shops (I love sewing!)
  • Curated gift shops
  • Outdoor wear (I'm in my hiking era)
  • Designers

I understand your challenges and know how to tackle them

Get to know your stock and profit strategist

Hello, I'm Katie, I'm a millennial who loves cats and dogs equally, being in too many book clubs, nature walks big mugs of tea and RuPaul's drag race.

I’ve spent nearly 20 years working in retail, analysing stock, sales and profit for big brands. I also run my own small business, so I understand the reality of juggling cash flow, stock decisions and limited time.

I’ve made mistakes. I’ve overordered. I’ve learned the hard way. That’s why I come at this without judgement.

My role isn’t to tell you what you “should” have done. It’s to help you feel calmer, clearer and more confident about what you do next.

Coffee and Co-Work?

Available in person for Bristol, Bath & Somerset based businesses or remotely for everyone else.

Alongside running my two businesses, I house sit full time around the South West.

After previously living in Bristol for 10 years, it’s still very much home though, and I’m there regularly.

If you have an office or studio in Bristol, Bath or Somerset, or you’d prefer to co-work in a café, I’m flexible and happy to meet in whatever way suits you best. I love supporting local businesses in person where I can.
