About us
There’s more than enough talk and empty promises in our world. So we bring the power of language to people who are doing something real to make things better.
Why we’re here
We’re here for the people working to improve lives – right here, right now. Who are building net-positive businesses. Who are finding ways to change the course of climate change and biodiversity loss for a brighter future for us all.
Organisations like these are full of people with bold visions, deep knowledge and precise skills. Big brains with big ideas. But what they don’t always have is the ability to put these ideas into simple, powerful words. Words that connect with people who don’t share their depth of knowledge. Words that get under the skin of the abstract and the technical and bring visions to life. Words that make ground-breaking innovations understandable and exciting.
Being able to tell your story in a way that resonates with the people who really matter is not just a nice-to-have. It’s the difference between an organisation that has real impact and one that flares briefly in a little corner of the world and quietly fades away. It can be what turns an idea into a successful business, and even a movement.
Who we are
I’m Heather Atchison, and I head up Enough Said. I’ve spent 20 years helping organisations create a stronger brand experience and reach more people by using words more wisely. I’ve worked with start-ups, charities and some of the most well-known brands in the world. Along the way, I’ve developed and delivered brand messaging and tone of voice, designed content and user journeys, run huge training programmes, written everything from apps to annual reports.
What motivates me is the power of language to change hearts, minds, the world. The impact of simple words, well said. And increasingly, the absolute necessity of telling the kinds of stories that will help each one of us, in whatever way we can, find a better way of living on this planet.
Our team
Our secret to success is having exactly the right people working on each project – people who bring the right skills and experience to the table. So we have a network of trusted partners – strategists, designers, writers, trainers we know can lift any job from good to great. This means we’re not tied to the next body in the office with time on their hands, but can pull in the perfect professional wherever they are: whether that’s Atlanta, Auckland or Aberdeen.

- You need help pinpointing who your most strategically important audiences are, and how to get through to them
- You’d like a practical, useful way to bring your brand to life around your organisation – through the way people write every day
