Testimonials
We could harp on about how great Gemma is, but you’d probably prefer to hear from her clients.
Newcastle Brown Ale
“Gemma has helped Newcastle Brown Ale to enter into the on-line world. With her help we have begun to create a great profile for Newcastle Brown on-line, and engage with our consumers in a new and exciting format for the brand. Throughout the process Gemma has helped develop some fantastic pieces of activity to help us achieve our goals. She has provided great direction and understanding as we have entered the social media world, and has always been on hand to explain the slightly more technical aspects of the digital spectrum. We would recommend her to any one looking for some expert advice in all things Digital.”
FutureBrand
“I worked with Gemma in the early days of our launch into the Social Media arena at FutureBrand. There is no doubt she is an expert in her field, but she also brings the very rare quality of not making you feel like a total luddite whilst talking all things digital. Gemma gave us some very practical, achievable advice which helped to propel our social media presence forward and enabled us to engage in thought-provoking and intelligent on-line conversations. She is simply brilliant”
PDD
“Gemma is an enthusiastic team player who is extremely pro-active. She combines this with the ability to always meet deadlines and has successfully managed and delivered various projects for me - successfully coordinating several international trade fairs in multiple market sectors, creating a suite of corporate materials and was instrumental in the conception and implementation of a re-brand. Respected by the management and studio staff alike, she is reliable and a talented marketing practitioner who I can strongly recommend”

“Gemma delivers a potent mix of inspiration and perspiration. Never tiring to deliver what you want, when you want, they add an intelligent and relevant eye to where your business should be going and why. Great marketer and a reliable partner”
Adrem
“The greatest asset they have is gaining an almost immediate understanding of your business, its culture, its values, its brand and most importantly its goals. This perceptive eye allied with a tireless work ethic enables Gemma to deliver any given project effectively and efficiently to strict deadlines. A real benefit to any business.”
Precipice
“Gemma did an excellent and highly successful job on our marketing and social strategy and continues to support our strategic business activities with wit, clarity and marketing acumen. She represents having that outside edge, inside your organisation.”
One London Property
“I allowed myself to be almost coerced into sitting a half-day Social Media Marketing Course with Gemma Went. The best way to sum the benefits of the session up are – FANTASTIC! I went into the session wondering if the money was being wisely spent and came out thinking it is probably the best marketing investment I could make in terms of ROI. The structure and delivery were outstanding but the most noticeable thing for me was how much I felt I learned about things that were previously very vague to me, to the point where I not only understand the implications but am confident of the huge potential benefits they will have”
Saatchi & Saatchi Design
“Gemma couldn’t have been more helpful to us with her social media support. She brought clarity, humour and character to a sometimes daunting technical area, and of course we are now all devotees”
Fluid Finance
“Gemma is an extraordinary consultant who really listens to client needs and responds with extraordinary clarity and vision. I would and do recommend Gemma to all my clients. Her knowledge of current trends, and particularly social media, is second to none and presented in a way that is understandable, easy to digest and more importantly concise, with a clear objective of what it will achieve for your company”
Blue Marlin
“Gemma held a great workshop. It’s nice to finally get a better understanding of social media from someone who’s clearly an expert in the area”
Haxtons Accountants
“I thought that I would find it mildly interesting. How wrong could I have been. Gemma opened my eyes to the power of social media by giving a very clear and concise insight into this aspect of marketing . Was it a lightbulb moment? Yes it was. If you are sceptical about social media talk to Gemma”
Northbound
“Gemma’s workshop was both enlightening and interesting. I went in with an open mind and came out with a much clearer picture of what social media can do if you get yourself organised. 6 months ago I was a non-believer, now I’m fully on-board and keen to learn more and make it work for our business”
Carrot Juice Creative
“For a long time I have wrestled with the question of what, as a business, we can treat as our “shop window”. We don’t have the scale for a decent sales role and we don’t have the advertising budgets of the big guys, yet we offer a great service and our business has slowly grown through word of mouth. Gemma has opened the back of the cupboard to Narnia by introducing us to social media. We hope that through blogs, Twitter and Linked-in we can accelerate the growth of our business. I’m confident that this is going to play a large part in the future of Carrot Juice and on a greater scale impact the way we all operate in business.
Gratter Palm
“I attended Gemma’s Social Media Workshop in the hope that she could demystify the Social Media space and give me an insight into how it might shape my business and the impact and opportunities it presents for my clients. I wasn’t disappointed. In a valuable half day session Gemma provided exactly the right mix of basic information and instruction whilst leading a number of strategic debates on some of the key aspects of the Social Media phenomenon. I came away feeling informed, enthused, excited, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gemma.”
Hemisphere DMC
“I attended Gemma Went’s DBA social media workshop with some trepidation. But I left at the end with a far clearer idea of why so many of our clients are keen to explore these powerful tools to connect with their markets, both existing and potential. I also left with ideas that could help our own business too. Gemma’s knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject were supported by a foundation of proven success. And where previously I feared and distrusted these channels, I am now genuinely enthused”
Octo Design
“Having gone into it with a degree of trepidation, being a complete novice, I now feel that the immense benefits outweigh the small learning curve involved. Being able to impart knowledge is a skill that doesn’t come easy to most but Gemma has that attribute in “bucket loads”. If, like me, you see Twitter, Linkedin etc as a potential to time waste then you haven’t spoken to Gemma yet.”
