MY STORY

​

Thank you for taking the time to read through our website.   The story of 'Sarah-Jayne Creative' began in 2014 when I started doing work for friends and family as a side hustle, making it official in 2016 by starting my own digital marketing agency. I put my driven, committed and creative nature to use and began helping small and medium-sized businesses to reach and exceed their marketing ambitions. The rest, as they say, is history... take a look at Sarah-Jayne Creative's Marketing Services offer here, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
