I mean, she was never going to write a bad review... 🤣
My wee mum, Christine Paton Mortgage Solutions took the leap into self-employment back in 2017. At the time, it was all a bit uncertain, and if I’m honest, I was a little concerned, because it wasn't really a "thing" back then. But wow—did she absolutely smash it.
Last year, she rebranded under her own name, stepping out from under someone else’s shadow, and I couldn’t be prouder.
Fun fact: I’ve been helping her with social media right from the start. Like so many self-employed legends, she was busy juggling clients, finances, compliance, and everything else that comes with running a business. Social media? That was nowhere near the top of her list—and the “how” of it was even further away.
Even now, she still asks me how to do certain things, which is so relatable for most small business owners. Social media isn’t your main job—it’s just one of those “necessary evils” that comes with running a business. And let’s be real, it’s not where your expertise lies.
But Christine? She knows the ins and outs of mortgages, protection, life insurance, home insurance—you name it. Whether it’s helping someone with bad credit, someone who's self-employed going through a divorce, downsizing, upsizing, or everything in between, she’s the go-to.
With 40+ years in financial services, she’s picked up a thing or 500... And that’s why she leaves the social media to me—so she can focus on what she does best.
If you’re feeling the same way about your social media—stuck, overwhelmed, or just plain uninspired—let me help. I’ll handle the content so you can focus on smashing your business goals, just like Christine.
