Comma Chameleon: Copywriting

At Comma Chameleon, we’re both proud and excited to be based in Manchester, where the cultural vibrancy feeds our souls and the spirit of down-to-earth camaraderie fuels everything we do. We love live music and local craft beers, kayaking on the Bridgewater Canal and hiking the countryside that surrounds this wonderfully gritty city.

We love most things local and independent, so we try to support other small businesses and start-ups in whatever way we can.

Above everything else, we’re committed to working ethically, honestly and confidentially, and we strive to build long-lasting and collaborative relationships with all our clients.

CM Resource: Business Support & Development

Hello, I’m Clare
– an uplifting business developer, coach, mentor and adviser.

I’m here to help you ease out those natural nerves – so you create opportunities and collaborations with optimism. And to develop considered behaviours that innovate and surprise the way into the hearts, and minds, of your customers.

I rarely stop thinking about business and opportunities. It’s what makes me tick. But I do enjoy time out and, rain or shine, I’m walking, running, or gardening. Giving me, and nature, a daily treat.

Clare: PR

I’ve worked with all kinds of businesses over the last 13+ years to help them raise awareness, manage their reputations and engage with their target audiences from international famous brands to fast-growth startups. If you want to get more people to know about you, your products, services or campaigns, I can help. I help to get businesses featured in the media, win awards, develop engaging content, drive traffic to their website, and create new, exciting partnerships and business opportunities. An interesting fact about me – I was voted at school as being ‘Most Likely to Be on TV’ and I’ve since appeared on (and won!) a TV show, and now I help businesses get on TV as part of our media relations activity!.”
