Carlisle is saying hello to its newest marketing start-up: Dan McAulay Marketing.
Founder Dan McAulay launched the business in December 2022 and is already making waves in the local business community.
The 28-year-old entrepreneur earned his stripes locally with in-house marketing roles at Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery, Gen2 Training, Burnetts Solicitors and Eden District Council.
Freelance marketer and founder, Dan McAulay, said, “Starting up as a freelancer is a lot of things: anxiety-inducing, exhilarating, stressful, and wonderful all at the same time. I’ve always wanted to launch my own business before I turned 30, so I’m on the right track!”
Dan McAulay Marketing helps businesses to be found online, ensure promotional activity fits within a solid marketing strategy, and find gaps where gains on competitors can be made.
What makes this freelancer marketer different? Dan explains: “After spending a decade marketing in Cumbria, I’m hoping to bring knowledge of the local business marketplace, combined with top industry-standard marketing skills through training with the CIM.
“Speaking to business owners and networking, I realised that there is so much I can help people with and it doesn’t feel like ‘work’. I’ve had some really successful marketing campaigns with my in-house roles in the past years, so I feel like I’ve got a lot of qualities to offer.
The future looks bright for Dan and his clients – at least according to the business owner. He said, “I’m proud to already be working with some brilliant business owners. We’re treading the same path together in growing our organisations, and growing as people too. I’ve got really ambitious goals to grow my freelance business into a marketing agency, helping my clients to grow at the same time.”
Dan and his start-up can be found at The Guild Coworking office on Abbey Street in Carlisle. He calls Carlisle home, but works with businesses right across the north of England.
Dan McAulay Marketing helps owners of small and medium-sized businesses take the next step in growing their business, with services like marketing strategy, digital marketing, branding and graphic design. Find out more at www.danmmarketing.com.
