About me

For the last 20+ years, I have helped people, and organisations, big and small, with their marketing - as an employee, contractor, director and consultant. I troubleshoot the marketing strategy, tactics and implementation for Small and Medium sized businesses mainly in B2B.

I can and do also act as an interim Marketing Manager or Marketing Director

My website is at www.melvillemarketing.com

Along the way, I won a major marketing competition run by the London Tourist Board, gained Diplomas in Marketing and Management and became FInstSMM, MCIM and MIDM,and have helped many businesses to survive and grow, often in difficult markets.

I am good at spotting new markets and new opportunities in existing markets. I have helped many to launch businesses and have prevented several whose launches would have ruined them!

In 2009 I became a Publisher and published my first book (an original work not compilation) called "Haiku from a Celtic Heart" (see www.haikuonline.com) there is also a Haiku Ringtone and books 2 & 3 are on their way.
