What is Red Ones Marketing? I am Karen Montagu the name behind the brand Red Ones Marketing. I am embarrassed to admit that with over 20 years marketing and communications experience that talking about "Brand Me" is extremely tricky. It is easy to do for clients but hard to put down what defines me. Most obviously you will notice I am a redhead - hence the Red - and as a freelancer working solo on many client projects, hence the One. You know your business best. I can help you reach out and communicate better with your customers." What experience do I bring?
I have been extremely lucky over the years to work on some really amazing brands and projects and across many industries.

You don't need to be fully immersed in an industry to market it. I believe you need to have the audience hat on rather than the expert hat.

Personally speaking...
Not really one for sharing my personal life but here I go.
I have an Australian-ish accent. I have kids and a husband. Two ragdoll cats and chocolate Labradoodle. I lived outside my home country and birth country (two different things) for over a decade and love the diverse multicultural multifaceted world we live in.
I love travelling (when we can) and have been blogging about our many travellers for many years - check out my Transit and Tales blog for more on that.
I have lived in multicultural environments for many years and still trying to define "home". In between family, freelancing and travelling is appreciating all that I have and are thankful for.
I am a work in progress.
Tell me about you?
