About Us

Officially launched in November 2012, Evolve Business Developments is a social media and marketing consultancy that works with businesses across the UK, but clients are primarily in Northern Lincolnshire. The business is ran by Karen Locking. 

The business was a natural progression from the work Karen undertook while studying for her BA(Hons) in Business Studies back in 2008-12. Karen started delivering social media marketing services to businesses in Scunthorpe and across North Lincolnshire during her time at university and has not stopped! 

Alongside the initial Business Studies Degree Karen has continued her studies, graduating with a PGCE (Post Graduate Certificate in Education) in 2017 and a distinction in her SLMDA (Senior Leadership Masters Degree Apprenticeship, incorporating an MBA). This continued study means that clients get the best version of Karen that they can – all the benefits of an educator with the added skill of theoretical and practical knowledge. 

Karen works with businesses of all sizes to coach and assist them to develop a professional, effective and strategic social media marketing approach and her client-base and activities continue to develop. 

Karen’s skills stretch way beyond my social media experience though – She has spent many years delivering training and development programmes in North Lincolnshire and, alongside the teaching degree, Karen is trained to provide performance development coaching to individuals and groups. It is these skills that she uses during social media marketing training sessions.
