Workshops
Faye Smith has over twenty years experience of sales and marketing – from managing leading retail brands like Debenhams and Principles, to managing Europe’s first retail academy at Meadowhall. Along the way she’s gained vital qualifications like bra fitter, job club leader, business counsellor and image consultant.
As head of sales and marketing at Rotherham Chamber-TEC throughout the nineties, Faye was responsible for supporting thousands of Rotherham businesses and international inward investment. The birth of her second child caused her to completely re-think her life, starting her own consultancy alongside five years of marketing contracts in the voluntary sector. Two years ago she fulfilled her dream of becoming a full time entrepreneur, setting up Keep your Fork marketing and training consultancy.
When Faye isn’t helping helping charities, social enterprises and smaller businesses find and keep customers and funders, she will be helping students develop more confidence, employability and enterprise skills as they go into the world of work.
Her award-winning customer service training has been featured on all four major TV channels and in the national press. You will also hear some of Faye’s refreshingly outspoken regular guest slots on self esteem, relationships and women’s issues on BBC Radio Sheffield.
