Hi, I'm Lyndsey.

I run SHADE for local businesses that know they should be showing up online, but don't have the time, the confidence or the plan to do it well.
What I do best is understand your business first, then turn that into content that gets in front of your customers. Your strategy, your content and your graphics all come from one place, so everything works together.
If you'd rather hold the reins yourself, I'll show you how. Either way, you'll know what's working and what to do next.
- Public relations graduate
- Level 4 qualification in social media and digital marketing
- Lecturer at Northern Regional College, teaching social media models across multiple Level 3 courses
- Module lead for social media marketing and content creation on a creative industries foundation degree
