  • Sue makes social media fun!

    She adds another dimension to social media which I haven’t found anyone else present in such a manner.

    Sue delivered at my workshop for SMEs a fantastic presentation and I have no hesitation in asking her back. If you want someone to bring social media alive ask Sookio.

  • Working with Sookio wasInvaluable to our social media strategy

    I always looked forward to our sessions as Sue was so easy to work with and had an enthusiastic and no-nonsense approach to social media which we took on board in an instant.

    She seemed to get “us” as a company and her input was vital. I am now using social media with confidence and flair and couldn’t have done this without Sookio’s expertise.
