Venus Awards Devon & Cornwall - A Night To Remember

On Friday, I went on a little road trip to Plymouth to attend the first Venus Awards for Devon & Cornwall. I've been over the moon to be a finalist in the category Digital & Online Media.

I would have loved to have won but to be honest everyone in the category was rooting for Katie Goode from Triangular Pixels. She is a games developer and managed to cover her developing costs of her new game on the first day it went live. She runs the company in partnership with her husband. Huge congratulations!

The event was booked out and the room was filled with hundreds of inspirational men and women. 15 winners were announced on the night while we enjoyed some nice food, drinks and music.

It was an incredible experience and one I can only recommend to dive into. It's a great community of female entrepreneurs who are very supportive and eager to help each other.

As for now, I've placed my certificate in the office and hopefully can add a few more to it.

What You Need To Know

Has it really been three years?

By Christine Foulds • 22 Sep, 2023

On a Friday afternoon, when all the main tasks had been done, I wondered when was the last time that I uploaded content onto my blog? I knew it has been a while, but I would have never thought that it was close to three years. Yikes! It’s one of the key rules of digital marketing to stick to a frequency of posting content online but as everyone can see, I failed. Luckily, the reason puts a smile on my face. I'd always hoped that I would be in this position when I first decided to set up FouldsCRM. I’ve just been incredibly busy. Over the last three years, I’ve increased my client portfolio quite significantly. Here is a quick overview: I started to work with the email marketing platform Klaviyo assisting three of my clients to migrate from Mailchimp to Klaviyo. None of them have regretted their decision and have seen a boost in email marketing sales due to changing the platform. I started to manage the CRM for 8 additional casino brands who use the Progress Play software. This was quite work intensive as we were the first ones to run their own CRM out of all of the Progress Play partners. It’s been an incredible 12 months since we took over the CRM. I welcomed back clients that were lost due to COVID which was really lovely. The travel industry was hit especially hard so being able to work with these businesses again has been really rewarding. I joined Mayple as one of their email marketing experts as part of their partnership with Mailchimp. The project aimed to show existing customers how to use the platform more effectively. Even though I thoroughly enjoyed being part of the Mayple community, I decided a few weeks ago to stop as most of the clients are based the United States. The time difference wasn’t working for me and my family. Family always comes first even though I’d have loved to continue working with the Mayple team. I worked on a few ad-hoc projects. Even though my blog and overall website haven’t been updated as much as they should have been, FouldsCRM is busy and I’m open for business!
