Hannah Anderson
Despite being an active user of social media since the start, Hannah Anderson never actually thought that she’d work in a field related to it. She always wanted to be a teacher instead of going into the social media or business industry.
Hannah started her training to become a teacher but still had a passion for social media. She was secretly able to build a network of over 100,000 followers on Facebook and thought it was just a hobby.
By 2014, she had already hit 600,000 followers on her pages, which made her realise the power of social media for the first time in her life. This pushed her into a field related to social media.
Fast-forward to today, Hannah is now the co-founder of a company named Social Chain. Vogue has also featured her as one of the top 25 influential women of the United Kingdom.

What’s the best way to prove marketing’s impact to sceptical CEOs?

Is brand awareness it overrated? Or, more importantly, is it the wrong goal to chase in isolation? Let’s dig into what really matters when it comes to growing a brand. The Case for Brand Awareness Brand awareness has long been considered a cornerstone of marketing...
What’s the biggest mistake brands make when trying to differentiate themselves?
