Process & Approach

Understand where you are today

Every engagement begins with a clear understanding of your current marketing setup. We review what’s already in place, identify gaps or inefficiencies, and explore the challenges you’re facing. Just as importantly, we look for untapped opportunities, areas where your marketing could perform better, reach new audiences, or deliver stronger results. Alongside this, we define the outcome you want to achieve so every decision moving forward is aligned with your business goals.

Step 1

Audit

Define the roadmap

Once we understand the landscape, we create a clear marketing strategy and plan of action. This includes the key priorities, campaigns, channels, and activities that will deliver the greatest impact. The result is a structured roadmap that turns ideas into a practical plan for growth.

Step 2

Strategy + Plan

Execution and ongoing support

With the strategy agreed, we move into delivery through a monthly retainer. This is where the work gets done. You gain your own part-time Head of Marketing, responsible for both strategy and execution, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time employee. We manage priorities, deliver campaigns, and ensure marketing activity remains consistent and effective each month.

Step 3

Retainer

We work alongside you - getting to know your business, your goals and what makes you different - and helping you show up consistently and confidently. we love working with small businesses and seeing the growth that can be achieved with the right support in place. From ideas and strategy through to the day-to-day doing, we’re here to make marketing feel simpler, more manageable and, most importantly, more effective. Think of us as part of your team, just when you need us.

Not every marketing challenge needs to be solved alone. Where a project requires specialist execution, such as brand identity, website development, video, or paid media, we can introduce you to the right partners from a trusted network we’ve built over the years.

Having worked alongside a range of agencies, designers, and specialists across previous roles, we know who delivers quality work and who to avoid. Slice acts as the strategic lead, helping scope the work, brief the right partner, and oversee delivery so everything stays aligned with your goals.

MEET ELLA

I’m the founder of Slice, and I set up the business to do more of what I love — working closely with small businesses and helping them grow through simple, sustainable marketing. My career started in a large corporate environment, where I worked with well-known names in the travel industry, before moving into an agency specialising in website design and development. It was there that I really saw the impact thoughtful marketing can have on small businesses, and where my passion for supporting them began. I later moved into a marketing role within the education sector, bringing together a broad range of experience that now shapes how I support clients today - practical, hands-on and focused on what really works.
