A little about me…..
I’m the founder and lead strategist of Crisp Marketing & Communications – a marketing and communications agency that helps small businesses from all across Australia to better communicate with their clients and show up beautifully in the public domain.
With a diverse skill set in graphic design, PR, education and business, I help demystify the world of marketing with jargon-free ideas and practical strategies that actually work… and also make sure you look good while you’re doing it.
I’m also the host of Creativity: Uncovered – a podcast which explores how people from all walks of life unlock, unleash and inspire their creativity.
Crisp was delighted to be recognised for our client service, innovation and community contribution, as a finalist in the Small Business Champions awards 2025 and the Sunshine Coast Business Awards for 3 years in a row.

Why work with me?
“Abi is down to earth and to the point”
I know that ideas are exciting, but they’re worth very little without implementation. In all my presentations, I try and get your audience excited about the ‘what’, but I also make sure they’re clear on the ‘how’.
“Abi has helped us gain the traction we needed”
While it’s important that you and your business look good, ultimately, marketing is about results. My business experience means that I keep your business goals front and centre of everything I do.
“Our team loved your energy and you changed how we all think about marketing”
I find that most people learn more when they’re enjoying themselves. I bring energy and enthusiasm to all my sessions because it makes the experience more fun AND valuable for my audience.
