Mark Tillison’s Experience

    Tillison Consulting (Self-employed)

    (Self-Employed; Myself Only; Marketing and Advertising industry)

    July 2007Present (1 year 1 month)

    So I finally made my leap of faith, finally had the confidence to go it alone. I just can't do corporate monogamy any longer. Lot's of businesses could benefit from my experience and expertise, why shouldn't I play the field a little?

    My services are formed around the experiences gained in many years in sales, marketing, business development, on-line marketing, business strategy, export and an almost geeky knowledge of IT.

    All these are only tools though. Tell me what job you want to do, and I'll tell you what tools you need.

    First seek to understand.
