Meet Abby Close: Your Marketing Partner

I am a Strategic Marketing Consultant based in Stowmarket, Suffolk, East Anglia. I help businesses across the UK and Europe grow by believing that focus beats being busy.
I work alongside you to bring fresh ideas, clarity and confidence back to your marketing helping you reach the right people, strengthen connection, and grow your business.
I’ve got a BA (Hons) in Business Management, along with Level 7 CMI Strategic Leadership and Level 6
CIM Professional Marketing, plus 10+ years’ experience across brands, startups, and agencies.

The Path to Direct Impact
I believe that the most focused businesses are the ones that grow, not the busiest. Having honed my craft with brands like Bosch Home and Garden, Kettle Chips, and Places for People, alongside the fast-paced startup world and my own wellbeing venture, I’ve seen firsthand how easily energy can be scattered.
Real growth happens when you stop trying to be everything to everyone. In practice, my approach is about listening first and asking the vital questions that uncover why your business truly exists. We’ll look at where your energy is currently spent versus where it should be going to ensure you are ready for what’s next.
Together, we will build a strategy that feels aligned, manageable, and effective. By cutting through the noise, we create a clear path forward that focuses on what actually works for you and your brand.
