Trusted relationships
Ben provides a highly professional approach to all his clients, recognising the importance of trusted relationships and confidentiality dealing with corporate brands, public sector agencies, rights holders, media owners and agencies.
His approach combines strategy with inspiration: great ideas often being at the heart of great campaigns to engage and connect audiences. Insight and evaluation to add rigour and optimise plans. Activation focused on brand and business objectives.
Ben is a great believer in engaging decision makers and motivating marketing teams: if you involve people in the process, they are far more likely to be inspired and to take forward new ideas.
