THE BULL APPROACH.

  • I WORK WITH CEOs, CGO's, CMO's AND PRESIDENTS TO IMPLEMENT PRINCIPLES AND PROGRAMMES THAT LEAD TO NOT ONLY MORE POWERFUL, IMPACTFUL MARKETING AND ADVERTISING, BUT A MORE INNOVATIVE CULTURE THROUGHOUT THEIR COMPANIES.

  • I WORK CLOSELY WITH BRAND VPs ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS, DEFINING KEY BRAND STRATEGIES, AND WORKING WITH THE TEAM AND THEIR AGENCIES TO ENSURE THOSE STRATEGIES ARE BOUGHT TO LIFE IN A MEANINGFUL, ENGAGING WAY, FOCUSING ON BUILDING A RELATIONSHIP WITH CONSUMERS THAT IS GENUINE AND LONG-TERM.

  • I HELP CLIENTS GET THE BEST OUT OF THEIR CREATIVE PARTNERS...AND THEMSELVES.

  • I AM NOT A CONSULTANT.  I DON'T JUST CHART THE COURSE AND THEN LEAVE.  I STAY FROM BEGINNING TO END.  WHEREVER THE END MAY BE.

  • I AM ONLY INTERESTED IN RESULTS:  RESULTS THAT CAN BE SEEN IN THE HEADLINES AND THE BOTTOM LINES.

  • OSTENSIBLY I WORK AS MY CLIENTS CHIEF CREATIVE OFFICER.
