Since shifting to a fully remote and hybrid working approach, Carrie-Ann Sudlow Consultancy—a boutique marketing firm that has operated from Cheshire since 2008—has experienced significant growth. What started as a solo venture by Carrie-Ann as an SEO consultant has expanded into an 18-strong team working across the UK, boosting revenue by 50% while enhancing both productivity and employee satisfaction.
With team members based in cities such as Cheshire and London, remote work has provided greater flexibility and opportunities for career development. Mya Ridgway, a senior team member with over eight years at the firm, shared how remote working has positively influenced her efficiency.
“Working remotely has allowed me to focus without the distractions of an office environment, and I’ve found I’m far more productive,” Mya explains. “Although we work remotely, I still meet up with my colleagues often, which keeps our team spirit strong.”
Carrie-Ann Sudlow Consultancy is widely recognised for its expertise in digital marketing, offering a range of services, including:
- Search Engine Optimisation (SEO): Enhancing online visibility to generate organic traffic and improve rankings.
- Social Media Management: Developing dynamic campaigns to engage audiences and strengthen brand loyalty across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
- Google Ads: Implementing strategic advertising solutions to expand reach, generate leads, and maximise return on investment.
Despite operating remotely, the team collaborates effectively using digital tools, regular virtual meetings, and in-person gatherings. As Mya highlights, the company’s remote approach has strengthened both productivity and team cohesion.
“Even though we’re based all over the UK, we make sure to meet up often to stay connected,” Mya says. “It’s one of the things I love most about working here—the balance between independence and teamwork.”
A senior team member further explained the impact of the flexible working model:
“Our remote and hybrid working model has been a game-changer for everyone on the team. We’ve found that this flexibility allows us to be more creative and productive while staying connected to our clients and each other.”
Looking ahead, the consultancy remains dedicated to client success, employee well-being, and innovation in digital marketing. With a strong remote-first approach, Carrie-Ann Sudlow Consultancy is well-positioned for continued success.
