Kathryn Weekley.
Founder, CH Digitals · Built in Emerald, Central Highlands, Queensland
Seven years of building digital systems for regional Australian small businesses — from skincare to trades, accommodation to professional services. Shopify Partner. HubSpot Certified. Klaviyo Certified. Working with the Anthropic API since it shipped.
I started CH Digitals because I kept watching good businesses struggle with bad digital systems: websites that did not convert, tools that did not talk to each other, and marketing that ran on hope. The work I do now is the opposite of that — connected systems built around how a business actually runs.
I write here about what I see in real client work. Practical, plain English, no LinkedIn pitch.
