Should you use a CMS?

 I've recently ditched my website in favour of a portfolio, blog, Etsy shop and social media accounts. It was a bold move for a marketer, it's nice to show people a shiny website but actually I wasn't winning business through it - my portfolio online is far more useful and this blog showcases my writing.

But first and foremost you need to think: 'Do I need it?' 'What purpose does it serve?' Maybe an alternative marketing solution is better for you, especially if you're a small business. 

Happy to chat about this if you're interested?

I want to share that I have all this every 3-4 weeks at the moment and have done now for nearly 5 years. Surely this will end soon? They say 10 years is possible. I've recently started following Louise Newson from Balance; she's a doctor with really great advice and support around menopause and all the problems it brings for women. As well as Davina Mcall, she and Dr Greenhouse are sending out a very clear message which resonates ...
