Success Story: How Michelle Killoran EXP Reached Pet Owners

“I met with Chris as he is a local business owner and like me, he wants to support and see other independent businesses grow. His concept helps both sides and it's a fabulous idea.

He did all the work and designed my poster and introduced me to the owner of the shop I'll be in. Thank you!”

– Michelle Killoran, Cheshire Homes EXP

How Spiky Carrot Helped

We loved collaborating with Michelle of Michelle Killoran Cheshire Homes EXP to create a poster campaign that truly stood out, much like her business does for her clients.

Michelle isn’t just another estate agent. As a local, she knows Cheshire inside out, from the best restaurants and hidden gems to community events. This local expertise allows her to give buyers personalised recommendations that enrich the buying journey and highlight the lifestyle benefits of each property she represents.

To give her services the spotlight they deserve, we placed her new poster inside Barking Mad in Sandbach – a brilliant independent shop that locals love. The venue is frequented by pet owners, making it an ideal place for Michelle to connect with potential clients, especially those considering upgrading their home to create more space or comfort for their pets. Reaching people where they already spend time is a simple but powerful way to start meaningful conversations.

The result is a beautifully designed, strategically placed poster that feels completely at home in its setting. It demonstrates how one well-positioned piece of advertising can make a big impact on the right audience.
