Marketing Consultant Sussex
Looking for an experienced marketing consultant in Sussex who can help your business cut through the noise and grow with confidence? You’re in the right place.
​
I’m Huw, founder of Tight Lines, a freelance Marketing Director and consultant based in West Sussex. With over 20 years’ experience, I help ambitious businesses in Sussex and beyond sharpen their strategy, focus their resources, and turn good intentions into measurable results.
​
Why Work With a Marketing Consultant in Sussex?
​
Many Sussex businesses face the same challenges:
​
-
Marketing feels busy but isn’t delivering enough impact
-
Budgets are stretched but not optimised
-
Teams are great at delivery but lack strategic direction
-
Agencies aren’t fully aligned with commercial goals
That’s where a local, experienced marketing consultant can help. I plug in quickly, assess what’s working (and what’s not), and provide practical, senior-level guidance, without the cost of a full-time hire.
​
Services I Offer
​
As a freelance marketing director and consultant, I support Sussex businesses with:
​
-
Marketing strategy – aligning your goals, audience, and channels
-
Budget reviews – making sure your spend works harder
-
Team leadership – mentoring and structuring in-house teams
-
Agency oversight – helping you get the best from external partners
-
Quick-win audits – identifying fast fixes to build momentum
Whether you need a short-term reset or longer-term fractional support, I can tailor a solution that fits your stage and ambition.
