WHO FOUNDED BRAND HQ?
When you put your faith in a marketing partner, you want to be sure the founders actually know what they’re talking about. With so many to choose from, how do you know who is really going to give you the guidance you need?
Here’s a little behind the scenes look at our founders:
Lizzy:
Lizzy: Lizzy is the Co-Founder of Brand HQ and Founder of The Brand Team Pty Ltd. An expert in all things brand, Lizzy has held senior positions in large corporates and agencies alike and understands how much of an impact brand can have on the success of any business. A believer that brand is so much more than a logo, Lizzy holds over 25 years’ experience running strategic brand and marketing campaigns for household brands across the globe. Whilst she’s run many multi million-dollar campaigns, Lizzy was born to help others and loves to see small businesses succeed.
A Mum of three boys, Lizzy stepped out of her traditional corporate career to follow her dream and start her own business. Never one to do things by halves, not only did Lizzy start a hugely successful e-commerce business in the baby sector, but also launched The Brand Team, an agency designed to support full scale SME and corporate branding projects.
Realising fairly quickly that start up small businesses needed a different, more affordable approach, Lizzy co-founded Brand HQ alongside Anna.
Highly regarded in the branding and marketing world, Lizzy now runs Brand HQ alongside The Brand Team, fitting in speaking gigs and workshops to share her love of the power of branding.
Anna:
Anna is the Co-Founder of The Brand HQ and Founder of Dot & Quill, a branding communications consultancy and sister company to The Brand Team.
Anna hails from the corporate world where she’s held senior positions across Corporate Affairs and Marketing Communications and has worked in large corporate offices across Australia, Europe and the US. With over 20 years’ experience supporting clients to develop their branding voice and find their audience, Anna loves nothing more than helping clients to communicate authentically and in their own way.
A Mum of two teenage boys, Anna’s journey has been remarkably similar to Lizzy’s, Anna made the decision to leave corporate life in favour of starting her passion project – a communications agency designed to help small businesses find their voice. Six years later, with a successful business, Anna and Lizzy joined forces to create Brand HQ to offer a wealth of branding and communications expertise to start ups and women with big dreams, wanting to start small businesses. In demand across her small and medium enterprise clients, Anna is known for leading high-impact workshops and strategic sessions that unlock clarity, sharpen focus, and drive meaningful business growth.
HOW DOES THE BRAND HQ COMMUNITY WORK?
We love to help and know just how tough and isolating it can be to launch a small business. There are lots of courses that tell you ‘what to do’, but not very many that also cover the ‘how to do it’ bit. This is often where start-ups get stuck.
Our community is our chance to share our knowledge in a more connected way. We get to know you, and you get to pick our brains, ask questions and get access to industry experts sharing their guidance and knowledge too. You’ll have access to a resource library, designed to take you through everything you need from finding and validating your first business idea, through to launching and scaling too.
More than just a knowledge hub, our membership is a supportive platform of like minded women, 40+ who are all driven to build their own businesses. Connect with others who are on the same path, ask questions and enjoy regular sessions to teach, inspire and keep you on track.
Regular access to our founders, and the chance to form your business networking group from the beginning. You’ll be supported every step of the way, when and how you need it.
One simple payment each month - join and cancel anytime. We’ve got you.
SHOULD I REALLY INVEST IN A BRAND IMPACT SESSION?
It depends on how serious you are about getting started! We’ll help you break through the noise, get unstuck and create meaningful impact to and ensure you walk away with a clear action plan to keep you moving. These sessions are often used by our start up clients who want a bit of hand holding to get over hurdles and ensure they’re on the right path. We’ll ask you the hard questions, ensure your strategy is sound, so that you can save valuable time, money and avoid making costly mistakes.
