Managing Director @ Forestall Risk Management Ltd
Niall was Mercedes’ client​
I’ve worked with Mercedes at SoBold Marketing for the past three years, and she has been a great support to Forestall’s sales and marketing efforts. What I’ve always appreciated about Mercedes is how practical and straightforward she is. There’s no drama — just clear thinking and solid work.
Mercedes has helped me with campaign planning and digital marketing, and she has a really good way of getting to the heart of what needs to be done. She’s personable, easy to work with, and brings a calm, grounded style that makes even busy periods feel manageable.
It’s been a very positive working relationship, and I’m genuinely grateful for her support. I’m happy to recommend Mercedes to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and effective in the marketing space.
I champion and empower EA, PA & business support professionals with compelling training, learning, networking and connection experiences-Miss Jones Ireland Founder,
Fiona worked with Mercedes but on different teams
I have worked with Mercedes through the PA network and our events business, Zoom In for the past 6 years. Mercedes is extremely knowledgable and consistently has her finger on the pulse with market and industry trends, she has a proactive and dynamic approach to any project we have worked on together. She always has a long-term vision for each project that she works on and can bring together all the various stakeholders through her enviable contacts book. She is dedicated, warm and personable -she treats everybody the same and works collaboratively with all she engages with. I would highly recommend Mercedes for any role.

​Not only is Mercedes an incredibly talented hospitality marketing expert, she also happens to be a wonderful person and a joy to work with.
Innovative, creative, analytical with an eye for detail, while always looking ahead with a bigger picture view. It was a pleasure to work with Mercedes on multiple projects for Trigon Hotel group.
I'd highly recommend Mercedes as a hotel industry digital marketing consultant.
