Helen Dowthwaite has always had an entrepreneurial spirit and having worked in the creative design industry for the past 15 years, she took the plunge last year and set up Creative Essence.
She’s going from strength to strength, clocking up more than 20 clients (including two in Europe, with many coming through recommendations).
Her vision is simple: “I brand a business from beginning to end – from logo, to website, traditional print work and packaging, to email marketing, campaign monitoring and customer database,” she says. “I have a deep understanding of trademarking, brand protection and the importance of logo and brand identity.”
Helen’s approach is all about offering a friendly, warm, personal service, while providing attention to detail and realistic bespoke packages tailored to each client.
“I’ll host domain names and look at data-capture for your business, developing planning along the way,” she says. “I’m not yet taking on staff but I do work with associates who provide skills like creative copywriting and SEO development. The future looks bright for Creative Essence and I’m delighted when my clients recommend me to their colleagues because they are pleased with the results of my work.”
