About
Julie Coulthard
Founder.
Julie started Inkee with a major passion for storytelling, drawing on a range of skills and obsessions (mostly the literary variety). As a journalist, public relations and marketing whizz, Julie relates with organisations that struggle to find the time to share their stories and connect with their ideal target markets.
Having worked for several not for profits, Julie noticed too often that the opportunity to share incredible stories and connect with the community was missed and funding opportunities and support were missed or lost as a result.
Julie loves showing how easy public relations is, so that organisations can develop their reputation and grow. An Anais Nin quote inspired Julie to start Inkee and she shares the same philosophy with those who struggle to be spokespeople and relationship managers for their brands. People connect with your stories and purpose. Make them known.
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
