As TLC Business continues to grow, so does the team behind it and Marketing Assistant Ashleigh Page has quickly become an important part of the day-to-day buzz.  

Since joining TLC Business in October 2025, Ashleigh has been supporting client campaigns, creating content and helping keep projects running smoothly across the business. 

We caught up with Ashleigh to talk about starting her marketing career, what she enjoys most about the role and what she’s learned since joining the TLC team… 

Q: Can you tell us a bit about yourself and how you joined TLC Business? 

“I joined TLC Business in October 2025 and honestly, it already feels like I’ve been here much longer in the best way possible. 

I’ve always been interested in marketing because there’s so much variety to it. I like the creative side, but I also enjoy the organisation and planning that goes on behind the scenes. TLC really stood out to me because of how closely the team works with clients, it felt much more personal and hands-on, which is exactly what I was looking for.” 

Q: What does your role as Marketing Assistant involve day to day? 

“No two days are really the same, which keeps things interesting! I support across lots of different areas, from social media scheduling and content creation to helping with websites, email campaigns and client projects. 

I also work closely with our Marketing Manager, Abbie, supporting her with campaign planning, content and making sure everything stays organised and on track. There’s always something going on, so it’s definitely a role where you learn to multitask quite quickly!” 

Q: What have you enjoyed most since joining TLC Business? 

“The people, definitely. Everyone’s really supportive and there’s such a positive atmosphere in the team, which makes a huge difference. 

I’ve also loved getting to work across different industries and clients. One minute you’re writing social content for one business, the next you’re helping with a completely different project. It keeps things fresh and means you’re constantly learning.” 

Q: What’s something that’s surprised you about working in marketing? 

“How much work goes on behind the scenes before anything gets posted! 

You see a social media post or a campaign and think it looks simple, but there’s usually loads of planning, meetings, revisions and ideas behind it. I think people would be surprised by how much organisation marketing actually involves, it’s not just ‘posting on social media’ like some people think!” 

Q: What skills do you think are most important in a marketing support role? 

“Organisation is a big one because there are always lots of moving parts. Communication is also really important, especially when you’re working across different clients and projects. 

I’d also say being adaptable helps a lot. Marketing changes constantly, so being open to learning new things and getting stuck into different tasks is a must.” 

Q: What’s been your biggest learning curve so far? 

“Probably realising just how broad marketing actually is. There are so many different areas to it and every project is different. 

At first it can feel a little overwhelming because there’s so much to learn, but I enjoy that side of it. I like being busy and learning new skills, so it’s been a really exciting experience so far.” 

Q: How would you describe the TLC Business approach? 

“I’d say it’s collaborative and genuine. 

The team genuinely cares about helping clients and there’s a big focus on building relationships rather than just ticking boxes. Everyone takes the time to understand what businesses need and I think clients really value that personal approach.” 

Q: Finally, what advice would you give to someone starting a career in marketing? 

“Don’t put too much pressure on yourself to know everything straight away because marketing covers so much. 

Ask questions, get involved in as much as you can and say yes to opportunities that help you learn. The more experience you get across different areas, the more confident you become – and confidence makes a huge difference in marketing.”
