Lianne says: “Growing up I watched my dad’s two businesses fail because he didn’t seek advice. My dad was always working or tired, and it cost him his marriage as well. This is why I’ve always valued advice and a work-life balance so highly. I encourage my team to smarter not harder as well. Engage Web gives advice and delivers online marketing strategy to help clients grow their business. This gives them their life back, giving them time to spend with their families. This is why I do what I do.”
Company co-founder Lianne Wilkinson was already a business and marketing veteran when she founded Engage Web in 2009. Beginning her career in the more traditional marketing and advertising industry, Lianne made the jump to the world of online marketing with PPC management and, from there, it was a very short step to the world of technical R&D, particularly focusing on SEO and content management, planning and creative online advertising strategies, and then into operations management for Europe’s largest search agency. In 2009, her marketing management and formidable planning skills founded Engage Web.
