James Crawford

Turning insight into reality and building the transformation that drives brand growth is something that really excites me.

About James.

A Chartered Fellow of the CIM, James has a real passion for turning insights into reality. He’s been building brands and driving growth since the mid 2000’s and is passionate about seeing marketing effort turn into commercial opportunity, especially in regulated sectors.

With a background in health, wellness and life sciences, James has worked in B2B, B2C and critically, B2B2C where positive customer collaboration has driven growth with consumers. James has been working in the Interim/Fractional space for the last 3 years supporting businesses to transform, change and develop their marketing into the revenue driving function it should be.

"Whilst we all need to enjoy the period of exceeding target, meeting KPI’s and seeing our brands grow – too many marketing teams waste time here instead of war gaming, planning & building strategy for when the competition finally catch up – because they always do."

Marketing Superpowers.

  • Commercial strategy

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

  • By following these tips, you can make sure you’re noticed on LinkedIn and start building the professional connections you need to further your career.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
