She said: “Losing all my work overnight was tough. I usually run arts events like the Victoria Square Christmas parade and Voice Skills workshops with the Royal Shakespeare Company. But with no events and not being able to go into workplaces I diverted that energy into mastering personality quizzes.”
Heather has a rich background of marketing experience, having spent 20 years creating and delivering arts-based products and services. Alongside this, she worked as a Regional Account Co-ordinator at renowned advertising agency Saatchi and Saatchi in London along with other marketing roles.
Heather added: “Quizzes have come a long way from ‘Which Spice Girl Are You?’ They are now a strategic advantage to help businesses generate qualified leads, improve customer acquisition and offer a personalised solution.

I’ve already written quizzes for customers in the US, England and even Abu Dhabi - so I’m confident that we can help make it a worldwide success.
“I love that I’m able to work on such a wide variety of projects for my clients and I am learning all about their businesses and how to get them even better results all the time.
“I’m confident that I can build a quiz for almost every type of business. They are really fun, you are interacting with your customer plus providing them with a tailored solution at the end – what business couldn’t make the most of that!”
Since gaining Certified Status in December, Heather has joined the growing number of leading women in technology and the network of ‘mumpreneurs’, having already secured clients as far afield as the USA and Abu Dhabi.
