About Denise
Hi, my name is Denise. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit more about me and Denise Loris Marketing. I started Denise Loris Marketing in March 2018, but really, I started my journey many years before that. I had to find my own voice and then, in time, gain the confidence to share my story. I have learned that I am most fulfilled when I help others do the same – especially while creating and growing their own business, but really in all areas of life. Simon Sinek (Author, Speaker, Marketer, Lawyer, and more) told us that people don’t buy WHAT we do, they buy WHY we do it – that WHY is found when we find our voice. Known as the “Father of Modern Branding,” David Aaker argued that a brand needs a higher dimensional purpose to truly differentiate itself. In his work on brand equity, he explains how “signature stories” rooted in a brand’s core values build deep emotional equity that product attributes alone cannot match. I also have seen from experience that we feel most filled and passionate about WHAT we do, when we understand our WHY. That, in a nutshell, is why I am so passionate about Purpose-Led Marketing. Is it the answer to the question we never knew we had.
MY STORY
When I began my journey in web design, over 18 years ago, I first started learning HTML and CSS (after I had completed my 3 Year National Diploma in Business Management). I loved learning and implementing code, and seeing it work! I learned about blogging; I was there at the very beginning when blogs were actually web logs. I loved learning how to share stories online! I had the fortunate experience of working for a web design company that focused on Estate Agencies. After starting my family, I began working for myself. First, I freelanced for a few years and, later, in March 2018 I set up Denise Loris Marketing. I discovered how to find my voice and how to help others find theirs through various marketing courses, therapy (yes, girl!), and most recently a comprehensive Front-End Web Development Certificate – which included web design, graphic design, marketing and more – with an American University – it was phenomenal and worth the blood, sweat and tears!
