Branding and Design with Emily Hewett is the latest episode of the Business Awards Show. Emily left Leeds to come south, where she knew nobody, but that did not stop her from setting up her own branding and design business fourteen years ago. She has remained a sole trader, building a solid team of marketing professionals to support her clients as she grows her customer base. Supporting local charities is a key driver, as she offers marketing work pro bono to aid their efforts. This is an entrepreneur who lives her values. Emily tells us about the challenges of balancing work with family; she has two younger children and three adult stepchildren, so she has plenty to juggle! Emily has won local awards and was a silver award winner at this year's Best Businesswomen Awards. Award success has driven her to sponsor awards and become a judge. Her unique perspective from both sides will be insightful for many listeners. This episode will be helpful for small business owners trying to devise a marketing strategy. It is an ideal listen for anyone thinking of entering awards, understanding the nuances between different award programmes, and helping to identify where may be best for you to enter.
