THE PLOT
A PR consultant you can call when you need to grow, recover or reposition.
You’re here because you need to communicate with impact.
Maybe journalists are asking tricky questions or you're preparing for a major change.
Perhaps you've outgrown your first website or you know your content should be driving more leads.
Lucky for you, I’m a communications strategist, copywriting expert and I offer B2B white paper writing services.
UK born
Originally from the UK, I lived the high-octane London life before swapping the hustle for new horizons and bigger adventures.
Zen mode
Crafting comms by day, guiding yogis through sun salutations by night. Being a Yoga practitioner keeps me balanced on and off the mat.
Beach-based
These days, I live a laid-back lifestyle in sunny Queensland, Australia. When I’m not working, you’ll find me (trying to) catch waves.
Almost famous
I was once handpicked at school to audition for 'Young Briony' in the Atonement film. Spoiler: Hollywood missed out.
MEET THE AUTHOR
Or should I say communications strategist?
I'm Caroline Voaden, founder of STORY., communications strategist and occasional (award-winning!) B2B copywriter.
After seeing the good, the bad and the ugly of B2B marketing and PR over nine years and wasting far too many hours in meetings that didn’t really need to be meetings…
I realised most comms were painfully dull or strategically thin. Too often, comms and copy get handed off to people (or agencies) who treat them as a one-off tactic.
They look for stories to use for a campaign or a quote, not as a tool to lead, sell or survive scrutiny.
I’m not interested in just ‘telling stories’.
I work with executives and comms teams in complex, multi-stakeholder environments to drive revenue, build trust and protect their reputation.
When the right stories are used well, they don’t just sound good. They shape outcomes.

MY VALUES
What drives my work

Collaboration
I won't fight for control. I collaborate with internal teams, HR and legal.

Curiosity
I ask questions. A lot of them. You'll always get fresh ideas from me.

Honesty
I'm upfront about everything, from your investment to timelines.

Discretion
I don't turn sensitive work into content. It stays confidential.
