Rach hit the ground running in 2007 after completing a NZ Diploma in Business at Tauranga Polytechnic followed by a Bachelor of Communication Studies, majoring in Marketing and Public Relations, at the University of Waikato. The marketing landscape was in the beginning stages of major changes and she adapted and learnt new skills to keep current.
In her first two years Rach was the Marketing Assistant for a promo company in Tauranga - she was the 'doer' to market the business, and one of her main responsibilities was keeping the websites current. Just as she started in the company they were expanding into holding pre-branded stock for corporate clients, and needed a website that would allow corporates to see what branded material they had in stock and place orders. They had purchased an ecommerce website from Zeald for the task, and Rach worked closely with Zeald to customise the site to meet the business' needs.
Due to this she became very familiar with the Zeald platform, so in 2009 when the company she worked for purchased the license to sell Zeald websites in the Waikato Rach jumped at the opportunity to step into this role. At the time Zeald was the biggest website company in NZ, and she was excited to be their E-Business Consultant in the Waikato. Over the next two and a half years she dedicated herself to the digital space, continuing to learn best practice and help businesses improve their online presence with a successful website.
Rachel is a people person and thrives on sharing what she's learnt for the benefit of others.
Over the last 10+ years Rachel has been a marketing assistant, Google Adwords Certified consultant, SEO specialist, E-Business Consultant, Marketing Consultant, facilitator and managed teams. She has completed contracts with Seed Waikato as Chief Doer of Things and Wintec to co-facilitate an ecommerce paper. She was also a Rotarian for 5 years and sits on the board of trustees for Volunteering Waikato.
