I'm Kate and I founded and ran Kitty Holmes, a small interiors retail business, for six years. I built the business from the ground up and did most of it myself. I built my shopify website, marketed to my customers via email and social media and successfully gained PR coverage in some of the UK's leading newspapers and magazines, along with all the other nuts and bolts involved in running a small business.
It's the things that nobody thinks about when starting a small brand - like knowing how to register a company, finding an easy to open business account, how to get started with shopify, getting your small business some free PR coverage or obscure things like GTIN that nobody thinks about until they have to. Have an event you need an extra pair of hands with or something with your business that needs to be organised? Or maybe you've lost momentum and need a bit of hand holding. If you find yourself stuck, drop me a line at hello@kittyholmes.com and let's see if can help you.
In a previous life I was a media strategist for brands such as British Airways, One World and Lion Nathan, delivering high performing media campaigns to my clients. I live in London with my husband, three teenage children and three cats.
