Looking to hire a freelance marketing consultant?
Hey, I'm Sallie, I work with historic properties, museums, and archives to grow audiences, share stories, and drive sustainable impact.
So, what’s a freelance marketing consultant?
A freelance marketing consultant is an independent expert who helps organisations refine their marketing approach, solve challenges, and achieve specific goals. Unlike a full-time hire, I bring flexible, specialised expertise to your team when and where you need it.
For heritage organisations, this means working with someone who understands your passion for preserving history, sharing stories, and making an impact—today and for the future.
By focusing on your organisation’s unique strengths, I help you reach more people, tell your story more effectively, and build a foundation for long-term success.

Why we'll love working together

From the outset, Sallie has been a warm and supportive allay, with clear expertise. We engaged with her hoping for some outside perspective on our marketing function in a challenging arts landscape. Her 'Atlas' assessment both confirmed our analysis of the status quo, helping to raise our confidence, and offered some useful insights and fresh observations. I certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
