I’m starting to wonder if AI blindness is becoming a real thing.

The more people use AI-generated visuals, the more accustomed they seem to become to how they look… while everyone else can spot them a mile off.

And that’s the bit I find fascinating.

Because AI itself isn’t the problem. I use it every single day.

But when a business replaces real people, real products, real spaces and real proof with fake imagery, does the person creating it still see how artificial it looks?

Or have they just become blind to it?

Genuinely curious.

Every business is different, and so is every budget. That’s why we’ve moved to bespoke pricing for Social Media Management.

Instead of forcing you into a generic package, we shape the level of strategy, content and management around what your business genuinely needs and what you can realistically invest.

From fully managed social media to Power Hours, Marketing Strategies to ongoing mentoring and Content Creation Days, our support is designed to grow with you.

Some say we do things differently…They’re right.

Get in contact to see how we can help your business.

Six finalist nominations across three awards…This is very overwhelming seeing them all together. 🖤

When I started Battle Brand Media around my 9-5 job, I wanted to build something that genuinely helped ambitious independent businesses. To have that work recognised like this means more than I can properly put into words.

To every client who has trusted us with their business, everyone who has recommended BBM or quietly cheered us on, thank you.

There’s a lot of hard work behind these little squares on social media, and I’m proud of how far we’ve come.

Whatever happens at the finals, being shortlisted alongside so many brilliant businesses is something I’ll always be grateful for.

Thank you for being part of it, this is for all of us 🖤

I know I’ll probably never be rich from this business, and I’m okay with that.

Battle Brand Media was built to genuinely help small businesses, not squeeze every possible £ out of them.

So I killed my most popular package, because I no longer believed it was always giving clients what they actually needed.

And I’d rather lose income than keep selling something I don’t fully believe in.

The truth is, most of the money I do make gets poured straight back into the business anyway, into Battle Brand Studios, The 9-5 Exit Strategy, new projects, better systems and bigger ideas.

I’m not trying to build something that just makes me money, I’m trying to build something that genuinely changes lives.

Morals over margin. 🐊

Last week, I asked business owners what puts them off hiring a social media manager, and it opened up a really valuable conversation.

Cost, trust, previous experiences and whether someone would actually understand their business and sound like them.

All fair concerns, especially when you’ve built something from scratch and your name is attached to everything that goes out.

So, I’ve pulled together some of the most common responses and answered them honestly. Including where expectations need a conversation on both sides.

BBM was built for small and independent businesses, and those conversations help me understand what support you actually need.

Maybe that’s full management. Maybe it’s a strategy session and some direction so you can crack on yourself.

If there’s something I haven’t covered, ask me below or send a DM 👌🏼

WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS? Fair question.

The jobs, the fighting, the travelling, the photography, the psychology…for years they all felt like completely separate chapters.

Looking back, they weren’t.

They all taught me something about people, behaviour, business and communication, and eventually, all of it found its way into Battle Brand Media.

The reason this campaign is so genius is because it took something with a dark past and sold a story so well that, nearly 90 years later, we still buy into the picture it painted…all through psychology, repetition and some very, very clever marketing.

Fun fact: I chose not to have a diamond for my engagement or wedding ring 😂

Be careful with your marketing.

The old Instagram lifestyle trap, show the wealth to sell the dream, isn’t the flex it used to be.

Authenticity is already winning online, but HMRC is now ramping up its checks on social media for “lifestyle inconsistencies” between what you post and what you declare.

So don’t make your business or your lifestyle out to be something it’s not.
Short term it might get you likes.
Long term it could get facing some very difficult questions and risk even being named publicly too 👀

Allow me to geek out, but guerrilla marketing is genuinely my favourite style of marketing because the best examples don’t even feel like ads. 😂

Curiosity, social proof, pattern interrupts and timing - all of it gets people noticing, talking and sometimes even searching for the brand themselves.

Sometimes the smartest marketing is just finding a way to show up somewhere your customer really isn’t expecting you. 👀

Now that I have your attention…

I’ve spoken to hundreds of business owners, and the same patterns keep showing up.

Swipe through. I promise at least one of these has your name on it. 😅

Which one got you?
