NZ Marketing Magazine: Founders series.

So this was a nice surprise.

The wonderful Penny Murray, editor of NZ Marketing Magazine, messaged me about 3 weeks after starting O’Reilly & Co. “Do you wanna be a part of this founders series I’m doing?”

Heck yeah, was my response, but I had to warn her I was three weeks into my new business and didn’t have a whole lot to share.

And so I answered a few questions, sent her a pic, and thought nothing of it until today. There I was in the latest issue alongside a bunch of super cool founders I've looked up to for years.

Tell you what.

After telling myself for years that I needed to be the quiet one. The behind-the-scenes one. The one people thought was entirely made up and not even real. (True story.)

It's a nice confidence boost to be included alongside agency founders I've looked up to for years.

People like Vaughn Davis at The Goat Farm, Luci Marshall at Rise & Shine, Kelly Bennett at One Plus One, and a whole stack of others.

Honestly, what an honour.

Thank you Penny and NZ Marketing Magazine for the inclusion, and for supporting us tiny folk in PR land too.
