From A One Woman Start Up To A Trusted Marketing Team

I’m Kerry-Anne Kitson, and the proud founder of Toucan52 (well, actually that’s my AI twin – a whole other story)!

Here at Toucan52, we have a real passion for working with small UK business owners who are ready to scale up and grow.

It’s a journey I know well, because when I started my business, previously called Toucan Web Design & Marketing, it was just me. I understand how it feels to be ambitious, but overstretched. To need proper systems, but lack the time to set them up. To outgrow your early DIY efforts, but struggle to take the next step alone.

Now, although I still lead on every project, I do it with the Toucan52 team behind me. I’ve worked with many of them for years because, as well as being highly experienced and brilliantly creative, they are all lovely to work with: reliable, friendly and always looking to add real value for every client.

Having grown my own small business, I’m thrilled to now be helping others do the same.

MEET TEAM TOUCAN

These are the brilliant team behind Toucan52. We work hard together to bring you the best results.

TOUCAN TESTIMONIALS

Kerry-Anne at Toucan Web Design & Marketing has been an absolute lifesaver, game changer, and all-round wonderful human being.

My old website wasn’t performing well, and my SEO was falling behind compared to other decorating companies.

After sending her some photos and information it didn’t take long before she produced the best-looking website I’ve ever seen. Once it went live, she worked her magic on the SEO – and now my business consistently appears at the top of Google. The increase in enquiries and workload has been incredible!”
