I’m Lisa, and I am a designer for print and web, a trainer and mentor.
My company, WooCreative, has been going since 1999, and I have helped hundreds of businesses of all sizes expand their digital and promotional presence. I work in all kinds of sectors, from hair and beauty products to furniture, professional services to tattoo conventions and everything in between.
I offer graphic design for brochures, stationery and promotional literature, web design and e-commerce alongside maintenance packages, training, mentoring, SEO and social media.
I work with small businesses and new start-ups to help them get set up and started in the right direction as well as established businesses to help them develop and expand.
I work with other agencies to fill in any gaps they have in their team chain, which might be sourcing print, training team members, creative design and web, or just setting up and supplying managed hosting for small companies that don’t have the tech or the time but want to supply the services.

Making WordPress work for you

If you are a business owner, it doesn&apos;t matter what size your business is; you need to be able to work your own tech. WordPress is a great platform if you know how to use it. 

I offer tailored training sessions on your own website so you can learn how to make updates, add content and products, upgrade and add functionality and keep it running and maintained with updates and security. 

Make changes with support, chat over changes and updates and make that website work for you.

Hello, I’m a digital marketing agency founder and communications consultant in Cambridge.
After a decade in broadcast media producing radio and digital content with the BBC, ITV and Magic FM, and as a homepage editor for Yahoo and AOL, in 2008 I founded Sookio.
I built and scaled the agency through intense periods of change – pandemic, fire, recession, four premises, shift to hybrid working – and oversaw the delivery of targeted marketing campaigns for clients in education, science/tech, B2B and the public sector, reaching millions of people and increasing footfall, applicants, and revenue.
In 2024 I pivoted the business to go from agency to consultancy, enabling me to draw on my wealth of experience in marketing, leadership and business operations and offer a more streamlined set of services:
<ul>
<li>Audits and recommendations</li>
<li>Strategy and support</li>
<li>Consultancy</li>
<li>Training: Social media, writing for marketing, building visibility</li>
</ul>
It&apos;s communications from the inside out. I’m someone who lives and breathes marketing and has closely followed digital trends since the earliest days of social media, but knows how to get the foundations right too – the tools, the processes, the best ways to nurture client relationships and motivate your team. I love working with clients to share this knowledge and solve problems together that lead to a happier, more productive, and more profitable business.
