FOR RETAIL, HOSPITALITY & LIFESTYLE BUSINESSES
Strategy + support for businesses that are serious about growth
You're running a brilliant business. But somewhere between the day-to-day and the big decisions, you've lost the outside perspective that makes all the difference. That's what I'm here for.

The insider eye on your business
Real decisions. Real support. Real results.
Whether you're scaling into new locations, building a team that can run without you, or figuring out what the next chapter actually looks like - the decisions get bigger and the stakes get higher
I help you cut through the noise, get clear on your next step and move forward with confidence instead of second-guessing. Because when you know what you're doing next, everything else gets easier.

HOW I CAN HELP
Three ways to work together.
Pick the one that fits where you are right now.
If any of this sounds like you. You're in the right place.
- You're growing but you're not sure the foundations are strong enough to hold it
- The decisions are getting bigger and you want to be making them with more confidence
- You know where you want to take this. You want someone who can help you get there faster
- You've got the ideas and the ambition but nobody challenging your thinking
- You know there's a next level. You just can't see how to get there
- You've got the vision. You want someone to pressure test it, challenge it and build it out with you
HI, I'M SOPHIE
Both sides of the industry. Twenty+ years of it.
Shop floor, national brand management, head offices, boardrooms. I've sat in all of them. That mix gives me a view most people in this space genuinely don't have.
I kept seeing the same thing. Brilliant founders, brilliant businesses, but no one around them honest enough to tell them what they were missing. So I started Market & Me
There is nothing better than watching someone finally see their business clearly and then watching them achieve what they actually set out to build.
THE MARKET & ME METHOD
Here's what working together changes.
Get clear & build the strategy on where you're going. Then actually get there.
Open the doors that matter - new markets, new partnerships, new revenue streams.
Get your pricing, margin and financial structure working as hard as you are.
Build a business that works for your life, not againt it.
Build a team and operation that scales with you, not against you.
Make the big decisions with a strategic partner who knows this industry inside out
Don't just take my word for it.
She managed to save both my business, and me. If you want someone who’ll ask the hard questions, cut through the noise, and actually help you sort your business out, Sophie is your person. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again.
Tiago, Structured PM
The business went from potential closure to expansion in less than a year. The support, guidance and cheerleading massively helped me and my business become more focused.
Jacqui - Mojo Food & Drink
She nurtures your values and priorities, so you keep growing as your unique self, not a generic version of your original idea.
