“When we decided to review the use of external marketing resource we interviewed several potential companies. Clare initially stood out because she demonstrated a marketing creativity in the ideas she presented combined with a ‘down to earth’ approach.

Since engaging with Clare we have spent time planning the various campaigns we wanted to initiate. Clare has easily integrated with our own internal resource and has quickly become part of the team.

It’s fair to say that we initially proceeded with caution having experienced the marketing merry go round in the past. However, any initial concerns have now faded, in fact we have recently secured a deal worth £77,000 from a lead generated via one of the campaigns planned by Clare.

We particularly like the fact that Clare is not scared to get her ‘hands dirty’ during the marketing cycle, she is happy to stuff envelopes if it means getting a campaign out the door.

Sometimes it is difficult to keep the momentum in areas like marketing when other business distractions occur. The benefit of using Clare is that we are able to maintain continuity in a key area of our business.

We are now moving forward with confidence working closely with Clare on a number of ongoing marketing strategies which will be key in our sales drive this year.”

“I engaged the services of Sterling to help me focus on growing my business. After just 3 days of Sterling’s time they had delivered a full marketing strategy and a lead valued at £10,000 which was the direct result of a campaign prepared by Clare. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone. ”

"I was fairly new into my Post and found myself having to write a marketing plan, which I had never done before and had no idea how to begin. After meeting a number of consultants I appointed Clare Tucker from Sterling Marketing Management.

What was really refreshing about working with Clare was that she instantly understood the brief and listened! I found her to be extremely approachable, professional and likeable.

Clare was a real asset in terms of encouraging me to think about all sorts of creative and interesting ways of engaging different clients groups. After a few sessions we had produced something exciting that was relevant for Board members and worked well with the groups and individuals using the project. I would strongly recommend Clare and Sterling Marketing Management."

“Superb! Not only does she deliver - but she delivers with style! My company recently won a major award - all thanks to Clare - she is an absolute STAR!”

“Clare Tucker the proprietor of Sterling Marketing Management has been known to us for over two years. We have worked together on a number of successful business assignments and bespoke training packages for clients bringing to those clients’ business advice and consultancy support.

This has helped them to become more effective and efficient in their own business environment bringing change, improved profitability and much welcomed help in achieving their business goals.

If a business is looking for something different – perhaps specialist support, marketing, business advice or maybe short term interim management then they should consider Sterling Marketing Management.

In our experience they are well worth a telephone call.”

“My various skills all lie in the area of helping people and businesses to move forward and achieve their goals – their Dreams. My problem was that I saw these as heading off in different directions. At the end of my first meeting with Clare she pulled everything together in a comprehensive marketing package that fits with my personal direction in life. All this wrapped up in a warm personality with pleasant humour.”

“Clare was recommended to me because of her professional yet friendly approach to business, combined with extensive marketing experience. I asked her to provide an impartial review of my company’s marketing activity and to make recommendations on how we could get more from it.

Clare provided a very comprehensive, well considered report which highlighted areas that we needed to address and made some excellent recommendations that we are now implementing. Her suggestions clearly took in to account everything she had learnt about our business and our objectives moving forward and demonstrated a very strong understanding of marketing and most importantly our own business requirements.

We now engage Clare’s help on a regular basis for a variety of marketing projects which she conducts in a very professional yet approachable manner. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to anyone.”

“Clare Tucker has done a remarkable job for the Band of the West Midlands Fire Service (WMFS) over the last twelve months. As a band, full of enthusiastic instrumentalists with a busy diary of events, we felt that our marketing was in much need of some professional input.

Clare worked with us on initiatives that would improve our profile in the community, attract new players and hopefully more prestigious engagements. Clare also undertook to seek a new image to reflect the tradition and pride that we have as a Band representing WMFS when we are playing our engagements.

Clare's passion and enthusiasm for our cause has reinvigorated the Band’s membership and inspired us to look at new methods of fundraising and raising our profile. As an integral part of the WMFS, it was important and necessary for the Band through Clare to liaise closely with the specialist sections within the fire service; this has resulted in a much closer relationship being developed between the Band and WMFS."
