STRATEGY AND CREATIVE WORK TOGETHER AS A TIGHT-KNIT TEAM ANDY AND VIC WORKING DIRECTLY WITH YOU FROM THE VERY START ON EVERY PROJECT IT ENSURES THAT STRATEGY LEADS SOMEWHERE THAT IS CREATIVELY STRONG AND THAT CREATIVE IS ALWAYS GROUNDED IN COMMERCIALLY SOUND STRATEGY.
WE PIONEERED THIS WAY OF WORKING AND IT HAS BROUGHT GREAT SUCCESS TO OUR CLIENTS FOR TWO DECADES.
ONE OF THEM CALLED IT OUR “SECRET SAUCE”…
THIS ‘EXTRAORDINARY’ CAMPAIGN
REVERSED A LONG-TERM SALES DECLINE AND TURNED IT INTO HEALTHY GROWTH
ANDY’S NEAR LEGENDARY COLLECTION OF FLOWERY SHIRTS HAVE GRACED MANY A BOARDROOM (ALONG WITH HIS STRATEGIC ACUMEN AND COMMERCIAL NOUS). AN ENTREPRENEURIAL BUSINESS LEADER AND BIG THINKER, ANDY HAS OVER 30 YEARS’ EXPERIENCE MASTERMINDING DISTINCTIVE AND IMPACTFUL CAMPAIGNS THAT HAVE HELPED ICONIC BRANDS AND CHALLENGERS TO GROW AND BECOME MORE SUCCESSFUL. ANDY’S NEVER AFRAID TO ASK THE BIG OR DIFFICULT QUESTIONS AND OUR CLIENTS FIND HIS INSIGHT AND COUNSEL EXTREMELY VALUABLE IN THESE COMPETITIVE TIMES.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
“LITTLE DID I KNOW, WHEN I TURNED TO THEM DURING A CREATIVE DROUGHT ON DRAMBUIE, THAT IT WOULD LEAD TO A 10-YEAR RELATIONSHIP WITH ANDY AND VIC (AND SELL SELL) ACROSS THAT BRAND AND, MORE RECENTLY, TIMOTHY TAYLOR’S BREWERY, AND SOME EXCELLENT THINKING AND CREATIVE WORK. I LIKE THE FACT THAT THEY ARE SMALL AND PERSONAL. ANDY AND VIC ALWAYS INVEST THEMSELVES THROUGHOUT. AND BECAUSE THEY INVEST THEMSELVES, THEY ARE NOT ‘YES MEN’ BUT WILL GIVE THEIR OPINIONS CLEARLY AND FRANKLY. MATURE AND CONFIDENT BUSINESS PEOPLE WILL VALUE THAT ENORMOUSLY AS IT IS WHAT LEADS TO THE BEST RESULTS.”
“I WORKED WITH SELL SELL FOR OVER TEN YEARS AND THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS AN ABSOLUTE JOY. WORKING WITH THEM WAS INVIGORATING AND INSPIRING. THEY GET RIGHT UNDER THE SKIN OF THE PROBLEM AND ALWAYS SEE THINGS FROM THE CUSTOMER PERSPECTIVE. THEY PRODUCED CAMPAIGNS WHICH I WILL ALWAYS BE INCREDIBLY PROUD OF, AND WHICH CRUCIALLY MADE A REAL DIFFERENCE TO THE BUSINESS.”
“WORKING WITH VIC AND ANDY WAS PROBABLY MY MOST REWARDING AND SUCCESSFUL AGENCY RELATIONSHIP (AND I’VE WORKED WITH SOME OF THE BIGGEST NAMES IN THE BUSINESS). IT WAS CERTAINLY THE LONGEST. THAT THEY OPTED TO CALL THEMSELVES SELL SELL RATHER THAN PALMER & POLKINGHORNE REFLECTS AN OVER-RIDING HONESTY THAT THEIR QUEST IS TO FIND THE LIMELIGHT FOR THEIR CLIENTS RATHER THAN THEMSELVES.”
“FOR EVERY STEP ALONG THE WAY, THE EXPERIENCED TALENT OF ANDY & VIC WERE ON THE FRONT LINE FOR ALL THE WORK WE DID TOGETHER. THEY BROUGHT THEIR WORLD-CLASS CREATIVE APPROACH DIRECTLY TO LUXEMBOURG AND DELIVERED EXTRAORDINARY WORK THAT WAS A HUGE SUCCESS. THE CAMPAIGN CEMENTED RAMBORN AS THE NUMBER 1 CIDER IN THE REGION AND ESTABLISHING A MEMORABLE SLOGAN IN THE NATIONAL PSYCHE.”
“I HAVE WORKED WITH SELL SELL SINCE 2006 IN FOUR DIFFERENT COMPANIES. OVER THE YEARS ANDY AND VIC HAVE ADVISED ME AND MY TEAM AT A STRATEGIC LEVEL ON BRANDING, MARKET POSITIONING, PRODUCT PACKAGING AND ON THE FULL SUITE OF BRAND-RELATED ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING A FULL-REBRAND, A BRAND-REPOSITIONING, INSPIRATIONAL MARKETING VIDEOS, WEBSITES, INTERNAL COPY AND PLENTY MORE. WORKING WITH THEM IS ALWAYS A PLEASURE AND ANY PROJECT THEY DELIVER ALWAYS RESULTS IN MUCH MORE BANG FOR THE BUCK.”
