About Jim Connolly

Thanks for stopping by!

My name is Jim Connolly and I have worked in marketing since 1986, with my own successful marketing business since 1995.

Although I specialize in helping small businesses, my clients have included some of the largest companies in the world and two of the world’s biggest banks; HSBC and Barclays. I’ve also worked on some fun projects too, like the UK publicity for music legend Nile Rodgers’ amazing book, Le Freak. Nile is one of two Grammy award winners I’ve worked with, the other being my long time friend, Bruce Elliott-Smith.

I help small businesses owners to increase their sales, attract more clients and boost their profits. I achieve this, by sharing my most powerful marketing strategies with them and then showing them exactly what they need to do, to achieve ongoing, amazing results. You can find out more here.

My clients range from entrepreneurs and start-up business owners, to those with established businesses, who have decided it’s time to bring in some professional marketing help they can trust.
