Business Partnerships
Laura Norman of
Laura launched her company Chroma Marketing in 2018, and has since worked with over 100 SMEs and non-profits to help them build their marketing strategy.
Laura launched this business while starting her final year at university, and working two part time jobs. The idea for Chroma came around when Laura, having worked in agencies and volunteered for companies like Kirkwood Hospice, Discover Huddersfield and Uniform Exchange, noticed that organisations weren’t getting a marketing strategy when seeking out support, but project deliverables such as a website that they didn’t then really know what to do with. That’s why Chroma Marketing’s primary function is a consultancy, because they’re there to help people truly understand what they’re doing, how to do it, and the impact it’s going to have.
