Sometimes, it’s all about me

So I walked in a Bar one day and thought “ How do I show people what I Do Differently?”

Well, it's about coming up with the Big Idea, The Story, The Words that will make your Brand, your Business stand out.

About being talked about and challenging conventional thinking.

It's about being a Creactivist and Doing it Differently!

​

But many years, and many bars ago I was an Ad Man – a Mad Man of the ‘80s and ‘90s

Working on some great brands like Tia Maria, Dunhill, Barratt Homes, Scottish and Newcastle Breweries, British Gas, Carrefour, Procter & Gamble the RHM brand groups of Paxo, Bisto and Saxa.

And of course my baby of them all Gillette, with my very own slogan, “The Best a Man can Get”.

[ Good story to tell you about this when we meet up! ]

Great days when lunches lasted for Days!

Life moved on and I ran successful Ad Agencies in the North East. Invested in businesses, sold out and re invested. Got the feel of “running a business” – it literally is the coal face and it’s hard.

Bloody hard.

​

Here is where my marketing approach shifted – real results matter – no bullshit waffle.

Good marketing is hard to come by – so I started Doing it Differently!

​

Getting out of your comfort zone is sometimes hard too. But whatever size or type of business you are in, we come up with the Big Idea. The Story. The Words.

I’m your Strategist, Copywriter, Marketer and all round Brand LEDGE on tap. This is Marketing from a real Marketer who knows his stuff.
