At Yarnell, we take the guesswork out of marketing so you can focus on what you do best - running your business.

Whether you need full-service execution or expert strategy, we craft tailored plans that connect, convert, and grow your brand—no fluff, just results-driven marketing.

Hi, I’m Jane. Director @ Yarnell.

With so many agencies and consultants out there, why Yarnell? Simple—we treat our clients the way we’d want to be treated. That’s the foundation of everything we do. After 15 years on the brand side, our founder, Jane, set out to create an agency (though, let’s be honest, we don’t love that word) without the politics and fluff that frustrated her as a senior marketing leader. We don’t take a cut of your media spend, we show up to meetings prepared, and we’re always upfront in our reporting—because that’s just the way it should be.

Why Yarnell?

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It

  • "We've hired Jane to lead our marketing efforts at our new company. I had some marketing experience but needed an expert to take over. After months of searching, I met Jane, and she exceeded my expectations. She understood my needs, expanded on ideas, and enhanced our social advertising strategy. She now manages our email campaigns, aligning SEO with audience-driven content. Her reporting is excellent, and she’s honest with her hours. I highly recommend Jane for any marketing project!"

  • "It has been such a pleasure / life saver working with Jane and the Yarnell team! As a real estate professional I need to spend my time working with clients and in my business. I struggled to do my own marketing for a few years until I finally hired Yarnell. Now I have blogs, email campaigns, social media ads and google ads, all optimised with relevant content for the right platforms. I finally feel like my marketing is going to saturate the market and be another source of lead generation!"

  • "I had the privilege of working with Yarnell (Jane) in 2024. Jane's ability to tailor a plan to nail results-driven marketing is second to none. Jane's collaborative style, taking us all on the journey of the required behavioural change alongside implementing powerful marketing strategies was a Change Manager's dream result. Aligning strategic objectives with commercial outcomes is a unique talent that came so naturally from Jane, right messaging, right audience and at the right time."

    Director, Business Transformation and Change Limited

  • "Jane has been an invaluable asset to our marketing team at Lanocorp, specifically our brand By Nature Skincare as we looked to grow in the U.S. market. She guided us in the launch of our ambassador program and helped us secure a TikTok Ads account — both major wins. Her knowledge of beauty marketing and TikTok was spot on, and her strategy matched our goals for growing in the USA perfectly. Beyond her expertise, she’s just genuinely great to work with!"
