Who is Nota Bene?
nota bene / nəʊtə ˈbɛneɪ /
verb – a Latin phrase meaning: “to note well, observe carefully, to take special care of.”
That's exactly what I do.
I help established service businesses take special care of their online presence, with a particular focus on Pinterest. Because getting found online is only half the story. What people find when they get there matters just as much.
Helping your business be found online starts with a strategy
Pinterest is my speciality, but a strong online presence is about more than one platform. It's about making it easy for the right people to discover your business, understand what you do and feel confident getting in touch.
Whether that's through Pinterest, social media, email marketing or the content on your website, every piece plays a part.
That's where I come in.
Hi! I'm Nikki, owner of Nota Bene
I'm the person behind Nota Bene.
Over the years I've worked with businesses across all sorts of industries, helping them with everything from social media and email marketing to blogs, lead magnets and podcasts. One thing has become really clear...
Your online presence isn't made up of one platform.
It's all connected.
Pinterest is my specialty because it's one of the most overlooked ways for businesses to get found online. When it's used strategically, it can keep driving people to your website long after a social media post has disappeared from the feed.
But Pinterest is only part of the picture.
Your social media, website, emails and content all work together to help people discover your business, get to know you and decide whether you're the right fit.
That's why I don't look at Pinterest in isolation. I look at how it fits into your business as a whole, so everything is working together instead of feeling like a collection of disconnected marketing jobs.
How do we take care of your online presence?
Building an online presence isn't about jumping on every platform or posting for the sake of it.
It's about making it easy for the right people to find your business, understand what you do and feel confident taking the next step.
That's why I look at your online presence as a whole.
Pinterest might be where we start, but it rarely ends there. Your website, social media, email marketing and content all play a part in helping your business get found online.
Whether you're looking for a strategy, ongoing support or help with a specific project, there are a few different ways we can work together.

"I booked a Pinterest Power Hour with Nikki because I was completely lost about how to effectively use Pinterest as a service provider. From the start, Nikki was incredible, she quickly identified what I was already doing right and offered practical, immediate improvements I could implement.
Her knowledge of Pinterest strategy was impressive, and she explained everything in a way that made sense for my specific business needs. By the end of our session, I had a clear action plan to follow and finally understood how Pinterest could actually work as a marketing channel for my services.
If you're struggling with Pinterest or unsure how to leverage it for your business, I highly recommend booking a Power Hour with Nikki. Incredibly helpful and worth it!"
Just had a Pinterest Power Hour with Nikki from Note Bene and, wow! As a GenX biz owner starting from scratch (literally 3 pins total!), I now have a clear plan I can actually get going with.
Nikki seriously knows her stuff!! She walked me through everything - from what boards to create and how often to post, to keywords, profile tweaks, and smart pin styles that suit my business.
I came away with really solid advice, lots of notes, and a Pinterest strategy that actually makes sense to me.
Working with Nota Bene was exactly what I needed. I came in with a head full of ideas and no clear direction.
Nikki helped me make sense of it all. Through thoughtful questions and practical guidance, Nikki helped me turn my overwhelming thoughts into a clear, actionable social media and newsletter marketing strategy.
I left our session feeling focused, confident, and ready to show up online with purpose. Highly recommend to anyone needing clarity and structure in their content approach.
