ABOUT ALEX RICKETTS
Alex has been working in the marketing and media industry for … a really long time. He was Head of Marketing and Communications for MarketReach, Royal Mail’s mail and media business, before spending the last decade as a marketing consultant. Amongst other adventures during this time he co-founded Crowdfinders, an events company in the then new and exciting crowdfunding industry, was Head of Membership for The Marketing Society, and has done pretty much everything from voiceover work to a spell as a PR Account Director.In 2023 he co-founded Wake Up And Smell The Copy with long-time partner in crime Jon Barbuti. Between them, they have a unique mix of marketing and journalism skills to deliver outstanding copy to any brief.His last client described him as “a very good writer, a very good talker and really good with clients”.He lives in Canterbury with his wife and daughter, and is passionate about the environment and wildlife. He is an enthusiastic, if not competent sportsman, and enjoys a good lunch. He is a self-confessed comedy geek and once had a brief and unimpressive career as a stand-up comedian and script writer. He is also a Canterbury City Councillor, hospital governor and general busybody.
