Struggling to find independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:BIO. Run-of-the-mill businessman. Autobiographical promotional article. BEM is the very bottom rung of the UK honours system. Edwardx (talk) 14:28, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. Vanity page having no RS. Agricola44 (talk) 16:36, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Radio personalities are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist, but the referencing here is not adequate to get her over WP:GNG and nothing claimed in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to get over GNG. I'd also note that after this nomination was initiated, an anonymous IP rewrote the article to be even more advertorialized than it already was — I just had to switch the introduction back to "speaker, best seller expert and book publicist for high-profile entrepreneurs, politicians and celebrities" (i.e. her actual claim to potential notability) rather than "was once a single mother, living in a women's refuge but went on to become an entrepreneur after a career in broadcasting and publishing." I'm happy for her, but people don't get Wikipedia articles just to honour them for making something of themselves out of difficult circumstances — they get articles by being the subject of media coverage about them, but none is being shown here at all.
