The outsourced marketing department for premium services & lifestyle brands. We help founders market their work in a way that matches the considered quality of the work itself.
We’re in the business of connection, creativity and storytelling.
We practise marketing as a craft, not a commodity, and we work exclusively with founders who feel the same way.
Our clients are founders of premium services and lifestyle brands across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds and beyond – businesses delivering genuine excellence, whose marketing doesn’t yet reflect the quality of their work.
As your outsourced marketing department, we bring strategic direction and consistent execution across content marketing, social media management, email marketing and CRM, and web content, SEO and GEO.
We work as your outsourced marketing department; or in other words, a dedicated strategic marketing function without the overhead of an in-house hire.
Every engagement begins with an in-person Strategy Day, where we establish the foundations your marketing is built on. From there, we work together on a retained basis across one of three tiers.

— WHAT IT ISN’T —
A marketing function that brings its own thinking – proactive recommendations, real-time performance data, and decisions made when they need to be made.
— WHAT IT IS —
Strategically led, commercially connected, and consistently active. You own the outcomes. We handle the execution.
— WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT —
We challenge your assumptions, push back when it matters, and measure ourselves on your commercial results – not just our activity.
— ABOUT FRESHBAT —
Freshbat was founded by Catherine Storey: CIM-qualified marketing strategist, fractional Marketing Director, and the person people call when they just want to moan about their CRM.
Catherine started in sales before retraining in marketing and has been embedded in ambitious founder-led businesses since 2021, building marketing functions that actually work – not as a bolt-on, but as a commercial driver.
She brings the strategic rigour, the commercial thinking, and the willingness to say the uncomfortable thing that most agencies quietly avoid.
CIM qualified | Based in Oxfordshire | Working with premium lifestyle businesses across the Cotswolds and beyond.
No pitch decks or hard selling. Just an honest conversation about where your marketing is and whether we’re the right people to take it from here.
