Melanie delivered a fantastic workshop on optimising email marketing. She took the time to really understand our goals and showed us practical ways to achieve them. We gained valuable insights on segmentation, boosting sales, and email marketing best practices that actually work. We’re excited to put everything we’ve learned into action, and I’d highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking to improve their email marketing strategy.

We were feeling really at sea with Social Media - which platforms to use, and when, what to post and where. Mel brought much-needed clarity and focus, helping us build an overall strategy to suit our business channels that we can evolve and develop. Her approach was so honest and open, and her knowledge and experience were exemplary. She even coached us through the platforms we were not familiar with! Thank you, Mel.
Katherine Dart, Grape & Nectar
I attended a social media workshop run by Mel a couple of months ago. It has definitely helped. I have barely used all the tips and tricks she has given me and already my engagement on Facebook has improved. I feel so much more confident in what I am posting and when and it has made a noticeable impact on my business.
Allyson, Beading Brilliant
I attended the Lunch and Learn, which was brilliant! Melanie is very down to earth and has many great tips, that you just can't find anywhere else. She is the Queen of Social in Sussex. The session was co-hosted by Rebecca Downie Photography. Rebecca was fab with iPhone camera tips and ideas on how to write content. Thank you, Melanie and Rebecca, for creating affordable and accessible social media training in Sussex.

UKMB appointed the Sussex Social as our preferred marketing partner in March 2024 and since we have started working with Melanie Johnson she has implemented a well thought out marketing strategy and created some fantastic content for our monthly newsletters and social media posts. This in turn has introduced UKMB to a wider client base and given us a bigger presence within our marketplace which has been invaluable to our growth and development. Melanie has exceptional marketing skills with a high level of professionalism and integrity. Her work is always focussed with a strong direction but she can also accommodate other people’s ideas and is happy to work as part of the team. I would highly recommend the Sussex Social to anyone that is looking for a marketing partner that can deliver results and bring further success to your business.

I have read your information and personas - you really have a grasp on the undertone I am trying to convey to potential customers so this is really wonderful to read.
Thank you so much for all your hard work so far - looking forward to your next communication :-)
Dr Sally Rayment, Facial Aesthetics
Thanks Mel. It was a brilliant course. Massively informative and dispelled a number of worries shared by the group in using Linkedin effectively. I came away feeling that I had a great foundation to start using Linkedin properly and get the most out of it.
Zoe Daines, Freshmill
I have worked with Mel both as her client and as a collaborator on a project. Mel has a great strategic insight into exactly how Social Media fits into the bigger picture and helps develop a clear strategy and structure that aligns with the business aims. She keeps up with what's working on Social Media and what's not, and her ongoing support and assistance in evaluating the performance of any Campaigns is a vital part of this. She is my 'GoTo' person when it comes to Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn!
John Hockaday, Local Edge
As a business owner, there are a thousand things to do and finding time to do them all well is often an uphill struggle. Enter Melanie! Her guidance, advice and commitment to creating an efficient and effective social media marketing strategy has not only saved me hours, but also increased my impact, reach and engagement with new customers.
Michael Coltham, Black Lab Music
Mel is thorough in her explanation of social media and how to use it for your business. She will provide honest feedback about what to spend time on and tailor her advice to your individual needs.
Thank you for all your help, patience and kindness you've made something that can be quite dry and boring into something I now understand more and your advice will definitely help us grow our audience and presence on these platforms.
