Meet Katherine Read
Katherine Read founded Leadwood Growth after seeing the same problem repeat itself across the South African market: businesses with genuine potential, held back by marketing that wasn't built to last.
Like the ancient African Leadwood tree—known for its incredible strength and longevity—we believe that business growth should be built on a foundation of integrity, data-driven strategy, and African insight.
"True growth isn't just about traffic; it's about building a legacy that withstands the changing tides of the digital market."
Three Pillars of Growth
Every engagement is designed around your business — your market, your customers, your growth targets. No templates. No guesswork.
Marketing Strategy
A clear, actionable plan for how your business will grow — who to reach, what to say, and where to invest for the highest return.
Digital Presence
Make your business impossible to ignore online. We build and sharpen your digital footprint to attract the right audience and turn them into real enquiries.
Performance Marketing
Every rand tracked, tested, and optimised. We run campaigns that compound — scaling what works, cutting what doesn't, and reporting transparently on what you're getting.
The Leadwood Framework
Our four-step process takes you from where you are to where you want to be — with no guesswork and no wasted spend.
Discovery
We immerse ourselves in your business — your market, your customers, and your competition — to uncover what's driving your growth and what's holding it back.
Strategy
We turn what we've learned into a clear, prioritised growth roadmap: what to do first, why it matters, and what success looks like in measurable terms.
Execution
We put the plan into action — precisely and efficiently — using the tools, channels, and tactics that fit your business, not a generic playbook.
Scaling
We track results, refine what works, and build on momentum — so your growth compounds rather than plateaus.
