Working together we harness new innovation with focussed marketing and quality launch planning. The result is highly effective, and is achieved through a very hands-on approach to planning with expert campaign execution. All possibilities are researched, every ounce of potential is explored. This is where I have delivered projects for 20 years - providing top-level planning as well as practical implementation across all key disciplines.

And when delivering projects, I'll work with your existing resources, or I can introduce all the services needed to create industry-leading campaigns such as: launch planning, campaign timelines, competitor analysis, product positioning, packaging consultation, evaluation of trade and consumer shows, campaign activation – right through to the hands-on specifics of implementation such as writing trade presentations, representing you at trade exhibitions, providing sampling campaigns and PR roadshows, social media, copywriting and so forth.
