Since shifting to a fully remote and hybrid working model, Carrie-Ann Sudlow Consultancy—a boutique marketing agency established in Cheshire in 2008—has seen impressive growth. Originally founded by Carrie-Ann as an SEO consultant, the agency has grown into a team of 18 specialists across the UK, leading to a 50% revenue increase while improving both productivity and employee well-being.
With employees based in locations such as Cheshire and London, remote working has provided increased flexibility and professional development opportunities. Mya Ridgway, a senior team member who has been with the consultancy for more than eight years, shared how this approach has enhanced 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 has built a strong reputation for delivering expert digital marketing services across industries. Its key offerings include:
- Search Engine Optimisation (SEO): Boosting online visibility to attract organic traffic and improve search rankings.
- Social Media Management: Crafting engaging campaigns that help brands connect with their audiences on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
- Google Ads: Developing strategic advertising campaigns to drive brand awareness, generate leads, and maximise return on investment.
Despite being located in different parts of the country, the team maintains a strong sense of collaboration through digital tools, frequent virtual meetings, and in-person meetups. As Mya highlights, the company’s remote model continues to foster a positive working culture.
“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 emphasised the advantages of this flexible working approach:
“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 focused on providing outstanding marketing solutions, prioritising employee well-being, and driving innovation in the digital space. With its strong remote-first framework, Carrie-Ann Sudlow Consultancy is poised for further growth.
