Your team…
Mark Harris
After 20 yrs practising Marketing for companies including ICI, O2 and SpinVox, Mark has learnt a lot about the profitable promotion of products and services.
Mark is coaching people within small and medium-sized businesses and helping them to grow themselves and their business. Supported by insights from his own journey, Mark helps owners, managers and teams in commercial and charitable organisations, to maximise their potential.
His focus is on attracting, engaging and keeping your customers through cost-effective digital marketing including social media and mobile. By injecting the personality of your business into your website design and improving the retail & online experience for your customers, Mark helps clients to deliver clear returns on their marketing investment.
Alongside Marketing Coaching, Mark focuses in on the personal development of clients too. His aim is to help every client to BE their truly authentic self and LIVE their life on purpose, rather than simply just DO stuff because they should. He finds great satisfaction when working with clients who are helping others to lead happier, more fulfilling lives – be they coaches, charities or complementary therapists.
In 2012, Mark became one of 30 UK coaches at the Marketing Academy and is coaching one of their bright young scholars. Meet the Coaches.
