About the founder
Hi, I'm Abi and I'm so happy you're here...
Here's what you need to know:
-
I'm a Shropshire-based brand strategist, marketing expert, copywriter and all-round communicator.
-
I absolutely love what I do (it shows - just ask AH&Co. clients).
-
I believe, wholeheartedly, that independent and founder-led businesses deserve exceptional branding and marketing.
-
I spent 15+ years delivering marketing and branding projects in retail, fitness, fashion, sustainability, wellness, tech, healthcare and energy, across both B2B and B2C. I've worked for brands like Triumph, Anytime Fitness, Wattstor, HP, Samsung, GridBeyond and Panasonic, but the work I care about most is with independent businesses, of which I've also worked with plenty.
-
My first love within the marketing space was writing. Everything I do now is the compounding effect of that desire to communicate through words, plus years of strategic branding and marketing experience.
-
I grew up watching my parents work exceptionally hard to build their businesses alongside raising our family. Running a business and being of service has always felt deeply personal, and I still carry that with me. Every client is incredibly important to me, just as I know the people they serve are important to them. I never lose sight of this.
-
After more than a decade in the London commuter belt, my husband and I moved back to Shropshire to raise our family (2 adorably wild little boys). This was when I made a decision - to support the county that raised me, by supporting the businesses within it. How? By bringing strategic marketing, branding and communications into rooms that don’t usually get access to it.

Independent businesses deserve better than watered-down versions of what the big guys use
AH&Co. develops brand messaging and marketing communications exclusively for independent, small and scaling businesses.
Why? Because money in the hands of independent businesses is money in the hands of good people.
And the world needs more of that.
AH&Co. uses the messaging frameworks that have established the great brands of our time to give independent businesses the confidence to:
-
Show up online with authority
-
Develop strategic authenticity (no, they are not mutually exclusive)
-
Avoid confusing messaging
-
Convey the depth of your business
-
Stop copying competitors
-
Attract better-fit clients
-
Charge appropriately
-
Grow without losing your identity
What about the &Co. part?
With 15 years in the branding and marketing space, I have worked with a lot of freelancers and agencies.
As such, I can select those most aligned with my clients' goals and budget to work alongside. I have a select pool of talented designers, developers, social media strategists and managers, videographers, PR moguls, and business consultants who I can collaborate with to bring your brand and marketing to life.
All of them are freelance, so independent businesses don’t end up paying the huge costs associated with agencies, but they still get a cohesive experience by working through a single source of delivery.
