This International Women’s Day, Activ Marketing is bringing together new and established franchise partners for a live conversation celebrating the women building marketing businesses with the right support around them.

Inside every successful marketing journey there is usually a moment where someone offered encouragement, opened a door, shared knowledge or simply said, “you can do this.” Across our network, we see the ripple effect of those moments every day. Confidence grows. Businesses strengthen. Clients benefit.

Hosted by CEO Katie Bullon, this relaxed and honest session will feature women from across the activ community at different stages of their journey, from newly launched businesses to those years into growth.

Together, their stories reflect a common shift happening across the freelance marketing industry. Skilled marketers are seeking independence alongside stability, systems and community, and redefining what sustainable self employment looks like.

These are not polished speeches or highlight reels. They are real experiences from women running marketing businesses, balancing life outside work, winning clients and building sustainable futures with the backing of a proven network.

You will hear:

• how belief from others unlocked new opportunities

• the turning points that changed careers and confidence

• what they would tell their younger selves starting out

• how being supported helps them show up better for their clients
