"It’s time to be kinder to Becks” are really powerful words from a very wise friend and business associate who finally made me take this step forward. With a very heavy heart, I have decided to close Hop&Co as an agency. Anyone who has run their own business will know the blood, sweat, and tears that go into running your own, and a PR and marketing agency is, as those fellow marketers know, a different level. My business baby has seen me through many personal tough times and landed me here - where personally, I am happier than I have ever been and heading towards my forties with two very bright, beautiful and switched-on children; it’s been a couple of months of reflection, stopping and realising that it’s time to get a better balance for them, me and those that love me. The evenings, weekends, and only four days of no-laptop holiday in nine years must stop before it stops me. I absolutely love my job, I love the industry, but for so long, work and life have been blurred. So, with that, it’s time to say goodbye to owning my own and move on to new pastures. So, to the world of LinkedIn, 👋🏻 I am looking for opportunities and open to conversations, chats, coffees - the lot! My team has always meant the world to me; they are like family. They have supported my decision and, just as usual, have been the very best people to be around as we carry on with slowly winding up. So, with that, there are exceptionally talented, wonderful humans who are equally ready for their new journey. So, what are you waiting for? Go and bag them; they will be more than an asset to any company!! Also, a huge word of thanks: I am extremely proud of everything the business has achieved, and I will forever be grateful to every team member and client who has trusted me and my team to partner with them. Finally, to all incumbent clients who have been so kind and understanding about my decision - I am very fortunate to have worked with such great people. We are now all set to make the absolute most of our time left together - Hop&Co. has been an absolute blast, and I will always treasure such a huge part of my life ✨
