SHE-TALKS with Lisa Jones

If you’ve ever struggled to make influencer marketing actually work for your brand - or wondered if you should be leveraging Employee-Generated Content (EGC) - this episode is for you.

Chantel Brayley has built marketing strategies for some of Australia’s fastest-growing brands, from Petal & Pup to Naked Harvest. She’s worked with big-name influencers (yes, including the Kardashians) and knows what actually works in 2025 when it comes to social media, partnerships, and scaling e-commerce brands.

In this episode, we break down:

✅ How to find the right marketing hires for your e-commerce brand (including tips for small budgets)

✅ Chantel’s personal tips for maintaining work-life balance while thriving in a high-growth marketing role
