CamelCase used to be something we wrote to be cool and trendy, little did we know that it was actually an accessibility tool and we should have kept the trend going!

When I was at school, we used to write text messages like this to fit in with the cool kids. no idea why, but there we go.

Now, as a marketing professional and accessibility advocate, I know the benefits of it and will shout from the rooftops to encourage more people to write this way when using hashtags.

For people with visual impairments who use a screenreader, camel case allows them to still understand the words that are within your hashtags by letting their screen reader know where one word finishes and another begins. It is as simple as using a capital letter at the start of each word.

If you want training in this and other ways in which you can make your marketing more accessible, please reach out.

With a new month upon us, we'd love to welcome you to the fold!

Wondering what the Mindful Marketing Club is?

We are an intentionally small group that meet monthly to create and schedule our business marketing for the following month so we can focus on everything else knowing that it is taken care of.

Our Co-working sessions are the fourth Thursday of the month and last a minimum of 90 minutes. We work on our own marketing, support each other and have time and space to ask for help if we need it.

It's a caring community where you can get the support you need to bring sanity to your social media marketing and beat that task-avoidance!

Membership starts at £25 per month and is commitment free so why not give us a go? Our DM's are open.

We had an amazing Mindful Marketing Club session today!

One thing that I want this space to become, is safe. I want business owners to bring their marketing here and feel safe discussing whatever they need to.

Today's topics were varied to say the least!

We chatted about cute dogs, how our voices are affected by our periods and also gave each other permission to post less.

It is quickly becoming my monthly joy to host this group!

If you'd like to join us, we meet on the fourth Thursday of each month and use our 90 minute time to schedule our content for the following month and take that worry off our list.

NEW SERVICE!!!!!

25/10/2023

I had a branding shoot done a few months ago and it was one of the best investments I've made in my business to date.

I understand the value of quality content for marketing, but I also understand that we never have any spare time, ever. So getting dedicated time with a professional to create a suite of images was a no brainer.

We covered everything from working hard to chilling out, including the book reading, dog walking and coffee drinking in between.

So now, whenever I need to whip up a quick social post, I have nearly 200 images just sat there waiting to be used.

If you are based in the North East, I cannot recommend Phoebe enough. She was relaxed, friendly and incredible value for money. Her branding shoots are up to two hours and you get most of the images taken that day in a beautiful online gallery. Her current pricing is £250 for this which is way too low so snap her up before she realises this! Haha.

I’ve been busy behind the scenes designing some new assets for my branding, including icons and sub-marks.

Design work isn’t something I talk about a great deal but it is a service I love doing!

If you don’t have a brand or design assets that align with you and make your social profiles pop, drop me a message on how we can work together to get you just that!

07/02/2023

After an insane but very exciting flurry of work, I'm finally taking the breathing space to sort my diary out and so can now take bookings for project work from April onwards.

Unfortunately, we don't currently have capacity for new retainer clients but if this is something you are interested in, please do get in touch and we can add you to a wait list.

Have a great rest of week!

Just a reminder to check your Facebook header images in mobile view.

Facebook have updated the pages layout and now some imagery and text in your header may be covered by your profile picture.

Yes, I’m aware mine is one of them - it’s on the to do list!

Now that our new dyslexia friendly font is launched, we really feel like 2023 is in full swing and we've finally moved on from 'Christmas January' to 'Real January' - you know, just in time for February to arrive! Haha.

This year has already brought us so much excitement and happiness with new clients, big meaty projects and a little bit of the good old comfort zone with our retainer clients. Honestly, our hearts are full!

And when I say 'our', I'm talking about me (Emma Lynn), the dog and our epic freelancer army!

We're so lucky to get to work with great clients who are doing big things to make the world a better place as well as a bunch of lovely freelancers who are supporting them!

If you're ready to up your social media game or throw in some epic digital campaigns, you know where we are!

November and December are filling up fast as we mentioned in our previous post so drop us an email today to talk about your social branding and management needs. All quotes are project based and absolutely no obligation - we don't even HAVE a sales manager here! Ha.

Email - [email protected]

16/09/2022

Just a reminder to celebrate your wins!

It's been a busy but great few weeks here at Peach HQ!

Emma has on-boarded two new clients with exciting projects and made strong headway on another existing project whilst managing all the monthly management packages too. The office hound has slept through the whole thing, obvs.

We are now actually at capacity for October with very limited availability in November & December so we're feeling very grateful to all clients for letting us be part of your teams!

We've got a bit more work yet to do today then will be heading to the beach to watch the 12ft waves with a drink in hand - Happy Friday, everyone!



Disclaimer - whilst this post features champagne flutes...we'll most certainly have a flask of something hot instead! Haha.

Having a brand which visually represents you and your business, regardless of what you are saying, is really important on social media.

It's not just a case of picking a font you like though, like many 'logo designers' would like you to believe! The fonts, colours, composition and every element you choose need to marry together to tell your target audience who you are - a graphic designer most often will not do audience profiling or research for you, they just do fonts and colours.

At Peach, we work with a fantastic group of freelancers to ensure that our clients always get the very best and have what they need, to do what they do!

So if you want an honest chat about what you want, what you need (because yes, they are different!) and how we can help, drop us a message!

We're super nice - promise.

Things have been busy here for me and as per usual, posting hasn't been my priority - not for me anyway - clients always come first! But here's some of the highlights;

- On boarding of a new client operating with the charity sector

- Lots of sea swims (hence the graphic)

- Planning of an outside work space so I can still get those creative juices flowing outdoors thtough the winter months

- Content creation for monthly retainer clients

- Setting existing clients up on Vero Social (just in case that takes off - you never know)!

Want to work with me? It all starts with a cuppa and a chat - [email protected]

Referring a friend? I reward referrals with lovely ocean friendly goodies including my favourite reef safe bottles of bubbly!

The faces behind Peach!

So, we're still quite new and we're pretty small. So small in fact that it is actually just me and my faithful (and very fluffy) hound! I drink a lot of coffee and he makes the day as happy and bright as possible so I can produce the work my clients deserve.

So, from me and Hades, Happy Friday and have a great and well earned weekend!

30/05/2022

I’ve been working on the Peach branding and am now totally in love with the colour pallette! And I think this is time well spent because when you are your business, it’s important that you vibe with your own branding!

I absolutely love working on social graphic suites and small business branding so please do get in touch if you have a project in mind!

17/12/2021

With office parties in full swing and bottles opening left, right and centre, we just wanted to take a quick moment to remind you all to take a well earned break!

Okay, so it’s not quite the famous inspirational quote type post we usually throw out to you all but it’s still a big truth!

We’ve started some very big projects here recently and coffee has been a lifeline! Emma Lynn is working on an exciting new project with the agency who taught her everything she knows. We’ve also been working from the other end of the country in Northumberland which has been a breath of fresh hair (literally and figuratively)! Pics to follow, obvs.

What do you need your coffee for this week?

17/08/2021

This has always been a fan favourite quote of ours! Try your absolute hardest, every single day to look at the world through rose tinted glasses and send positive vibes wherever you can!

Have a great week you beautiful bunch!

Ladies and gentlemen…this is in fact, a homepage!! Whhhaaattt??!!! Emma has been slaving away with coffee in hand and coding knowledge from over a decade ago (we were worried too!) to get this far But HERE WE ARE!

12/08/2021

I wish someone had told me this over the past year when I was toying with the idea of going fully self employed. Don’t get me wrong, it is risky and really scary at times but honestly, working with the clients I have, makes it 100% worth it.

It’s so lovely knowing that we are helping small businesses, charities and sole traders to make a big impact in the areas. It just goes to show that you don’t need a massive marketing budget to achieve great things!

If you want to know how Peach could help you, just get in touch for an informal chat to find out :)

19/07/2021

Work can be a chore sometimes, nobody can deny that! But we find it so much easier and enjoyable when we work with fun people with passion and drive!

We’re really lucky to have great clients and connections with other suppliers so have a good day almost every day! We think everyone deserves the same so feel free to drop us a line if you want more sunshine in your work day!

Our inbox is always open!

Are you being boring with your comms? Honestly, are you?

We’re not saying to add swear words to every single post and make things inappropriate and awkward. But we are saying to talk to your audience. Really, talk to THEM.

Social media is great because it gives you a fast moving platform to test, fall, get back up, try again and truly be unique and speak to your audience in THEIR language.

We’re all very human here at Peach HQ. We’re perfectly professional but you will quite often find us covered in mud, dog fur, coffee stains and throwing out the occasional unfiltered sentence. We like to think we scrub up pretty well when needed though so feel free to put that to the test!
