Why Bright Balmer?

    I believe researching & understanding key elements of a marketing mix can be a game-changer. I have been in the marketing industry for over 20 years & have a fantastic background in using key principles such as insight, brand & communications. A great business mind along with a creative heart means I come from the right place to consult for strategic elements & its practical application.

    My portfolio showcases various commercial and professional projects created throughout my career, I have worked on a variety of projects internationally, supporting people & companies to achieve best results to an outstanding level.

    Making positive change is what I am all about, I do this all the time in my work & I love to share this with others. Most importantly I want to give my clients real results from which they can see true benefit.

    For me everything evolves around the idea, how you then take that & put it into something people can benefit from, you can make money from & is the best it can be.

    Many SME’e, entrepreneurs & business people don’t truly know where to start, I do & I like to help.

    Companies I Have Worked With

    Always Learning – Education & hands on Experience

    I feel it’s important that I keep up to date with changes, I use a consulting style that incorporates traditional methods with modern developments too.

    I am an ambassador for marketing done well.  Through the many consultancies, speaking and workshops I undertake I want to see more professionals reach their potential and to leave more business thrive.

    Marketing overview, strategy & guidance

    When you don’t need a marketing element all the time & possibly can’t afford to employ the top level candidate needed, I can see what is needed, identify and help smooth out friction points for the customer and the business. I can get things going & train up a marketing assistant or executive to be able continue taking on the reins. Also I can oversee the future elements if required with continued consulting.

    Always Learning – Education & hands on Dedicated to better understanding, efforts & success

    Much of my early career has been spent within SMEs, all are exciting and yet challenging with expertise such as research, diagnostics, purpose, promise, targeting, positioning, pricing all combined into the company strategy for roll out of the right tactics. Tactics is the roll out of the strategy through processing, communication, social media etc. Just as much fun as strategy when done right. It’s important to understand KPIs/ ROI as being timely factors in the successful running of a business.

    I worked with Michelle for a period of almost 2 years at Charlecote Park. She always showed a great deal of professionalism and enthusiasm for our work to champion a leading conservation charity. I was particularly appreciative of her ideas, ‘can do’ attitude, support and encouragement. Michelle brought creative flair to projects and always added the element of fun to the tasks in hand.

    It is without hesitation that I recommend Michelle as an exceptional, enthusiastic and innovative Marketing Consultant. I worked with her on several projects and her positive, can-do attitude is infectious to everyone she meets! If there is ever a moment where things go off the rails (and let’s face it, something always does!) Michelle will be there with a huge smile, a much needed laugh and most important, a solution to the problem. She is honest, trustworthy and above all, a kind soul. I am a better person for knowing her and an even better professional from working with her. Thank you Michelle – I can’t wait to work with you again!

    Her role required a lot of hard work, attention to detail, fire-fighting skills, and called to attention an ability to organise various pieces of the project laboriously and months of intense preparation. I found Michelle pleasant and upbeat in the face of stress, and she would go out of her way to find solutions. In my opinion Michelle added immense value to the event with her entrepreneurial zeal and professional attitude.

    When I first met Michelle, I was very impressed with her enthusiasm and positive energy. It’s an essential trait for any marketing person. She’s also very dedicated to what she does.
    Michelle is a do-er. When she sets her sights on a goal, she will start planning and reaching out to available networks/ resources to get things going. I admire that about her – this ability to see the big picture and know how to put things together. She’s also been a great supporter of Mums@Work – referring relevant clients to us (that were able to partner us in specific projects). Michelle is talented and very capable – that I have no doubt! It was a joy to work with her and I am looking forward to more partnership opportunities.
