About

Hello! I’m Lorri Ritchie, the person behind Socially Mindful. I am an American who somehow missed her flight home after coming to the UK over 35 years ago for a 6-month work assignment! I may have literally lived more of my life in the UK, but as soon as I open my mouth my American accent shines through! I also spend my life wishing I was on a beach, I’m quite partial to a gin & tonic, I’m a wife to a very patient husband, and I’m mum to a lovely daughter, a beast of a beagle, and two gorgeous but deadly cats (to mice and other small critters anyway!).

I’m going to be totally honest and say that I feel that with Ads Management I have found the holy grail in the workplace – a job that I love! A job that I look forward to each day. A job that doesn’t actually FEEL like a job!

My philosophy is that the secret ingredients in any successful business are connections and relationships. Business is all about creating meaningful bonds with clients; to me it’s all about being so invested in that business relationship that I celebrate client wins as if they were my own. Maybe that sounds a bit extreme, but I believe that in order for me to be successful, my clients have to be successful.

If you are looking for someone who will take just as much care with creating your advertising campaigns as they would creating their own, and someone who will look after every penny of your ad spend budget as carefully as if it was coming out of her own pocket, then I reckon we could be a pretty good match.

The results probably won’t come overnight. As with all things worth having, they will takes time and patience. And they’ll take hard work. But oh my goodness, when the results start coming in, they will be oh so worth it!

In a nutshell, I am…

Friendly

No question is too daft, no goal too big. I’ll always bend over backwards to accommodate my clients and make sure they are completely informed on how their advertising budget is being spent and the results being obtained.

Results-driven

This is your business, and I know that you have goals. I’ll work with you to develop realistic strategies to reach those goals and keep you informed about how things are going.

Cost-effective

Because I am a small business, my prices are often lower than big agencies. But my expertise means that I deliver the same level of service on a much more personal basis. To me you will always be more than just ‘another client’.

Flexible

As you hit your goals or your business changes, I will work with you to evolve you advertising campaign strategy to reflect where you want to go next.

But in the wrong hands, without a clear objective and understanding of how to harness its value you can waste a lot of time or money. Lorri has worked hard to build her expertise and become a specialist in Facebook Ads. She genuinely cares about driving results and her dedication shines through. You will be in safe hands if you work with Lorri.”
