ABOUT TIM TUCKER

I’m Tim Tucker. I’m a user experience and digital content consultant based in Bristol, UK. I help people, businesses and organisations, to communicate better through digital media. By ‘digital’ I mean any electronically connected media, including websites, blogs, email, e-books, digital downloads and social networks.

I’m passionate about digital communications and I love working with people who share my enthusiasm.

People tell me that they like working with me because I know what I’m talking about, I don’t talk in jargon and I explain things in an entertaining and easy-to-understand way.

How I do it

I offer consultancy services and training programs. I work with individuals and teams to improve the way they communicate and do business. Email me to discuss your needs in more detail.
