Having completed a marketing degree and a Post-Graduate qualification in Digital Marketing with the Chartered Institute of Marketing, Kerry feels her approach definitely gives the team at Champion Marketing a competitive edge. When the COVID-19 pandemic began to affect operations in the UK, there was a marked downturn in demand for services from Champion Marketing. This was because many firms and companies were forced to rapidly adapt to the new guidelines regarding social distancing. As restrictions lifted, there was an increase in business within the trade industry. Nearly half of the British population used the lockdown to undertake home improvement. This has kept the trade industry very busy with jobs booked in constantly, so the team at Champion Marketing have been able to reap the rewards of their success, updating people online. For the team at Champion Marketing, the future seems bright indeed. Kerry is determined to see her newly founded business prosper in this new economic environment, leveraging the ability of the agency to adapt quickly to changing events. There are already plans in place to expand and evolve to offer more services such as website development and structured training courses, as well as the permanent implementation of a remote working environment so that staff can work from home.

Kerry has built a culture where team members are honest, supporting each other openly. Any new member of staff has the same right can- do positive team spirit attitude. Digital marketing is key to success in the new normal, and companies like Champion Marketing take the strain so that SMEs can focus on what they do best. It’s a form of collaboration that thrives on success. Company: Champion Marketing Name: Kerry Levy Web Address: www.championmarketing.co.uk
