Hi, I’m Siân
A bit about me
I’m an Americano-fuelled thirty-something year old living in Manchester, UK who is building up a business in branding and digital marketing around a 9-5.
Originally from beautiful North Wales, you’ll find me unwinding up a hill or near the coast. When I can’t get to either of those, I’ll be in the gym or enjoying a glass of wine (or maybe a bottle, let’s be real) with friends or at home with my partner.
Why small biz owners, you may ask? Because I’ve seen both my dad and best friend run their own businesses through times of real crises (recessions, pandemics, you name it) and have seen first-hand how important it is to have badass branding and marketing for small businesses whilst also trying to minimise overhead costs as much as possible.
MFD Marketing exists to help small business owners feel like absolute badasses with their brands and marketing efforts. (‘Badass’ was my favourite piece of feedback I ever received, I’ll tell you that story later…)
But for now, it’s great to meet you.
Stick around here…

I had the passion to start MFD Marketing from the combination of two things throughout my life.
Firstly, little 8 year old Sian was first exposed to digital design for her Dad’s architecture and construction business through typing out documents and creating a letterhead. He got more than he bargained for when a pack of newly designed business cards turned up at the door one day!
My interest in writing and designing things online only grew and evolved throughout my education to the point where I did a degree in IT and Multimedia with a web and graphic design side hustle alongside it. Any cards or gifts for friends and family? They were (and still are) also being designed and printed with TLC.
Secondly, I’m happy to say that I ‘detoured’ (I mean, who doesn’t right?), following a different path after graduation into business change consultancy for 7 years. I’m happy because this was a really varied mix of roles and clients all in different industries, giving me a heck of a lot of exposure and transferable skills that allows me to help business owners now.
But I never forgot about my passion. I volunteered for brand and marketing teams to pick up little bits here and there for large companies and even completing a qualification alongside work.
A bit about why I started MFD
Now, MFD Marketing brings that passion to small business owners.
