I have spent my entire career working in the advertising, marketing, and publishing industries, helping businesses connect with their local communities through trusted publications and effective advertising. Based in Ingleby Barwick, I work with businesses, organisations and councils across Teesside, providing advertising opportunities that deliver genuine local reach.
Having started in the industry in 1979 and holding a First Class qualification in design, I have seen the advertising landscape evolve dramatically. What has remained constant is the importance of reaching the right audience with the right message.
In 2008, I established Lesley Palmer Advertising Company Co Ltd, bringing together decades of industry knowledge to create a business focused on supporting local organisations and businesses through quality publications and dependable advertising solutions.
My experience enables me to understand the challenges businesses face in promoting their services, and I take pride in helping clients maximise the value of their advertising investment.
One of my proudest achievements is Marketplace Magazine, a publication that has become a familiar and trusted name within the local community.
For more than 25 years, Marketplace Magazine has provided businesses with a proven platform to promote their products and services while offering residents useful local information. Its continued success and longevity speak for themselves, making it one of the area's most established advertising publications.
I am proud to publish several respected community publications, including:
Each publication is carefully produced to inform, engage and connect local communities while providing valuable advertising opportunities for businesses of all sizes.
I understand that when businesses invest in advertising, they want confidence that their message is being delivered as promised. That is why all my publication distributions are GPS-tracked. This provides transparency and reassurance that every publication reaches its intended delivery area, giving advertisers greater confidence in their marketing investment.
Building long-term relationships has always been at the heart of what I do. Many of my advertisers have worked with me for years because they know they can rely on my experience, local knowledge and commitment to quality.
