Client Testimonials
John is a passionate and visionary Creative Director. Never content with ‘making do’, he is constantly seeking new and better ways, sifting through information to produce insightful, intelligent and integrated campaigns. He also has a prodigious knowledge of the industry and a solid network of supporters which enable him to turn briefs into campaigns quickly, efficiently and with minimum fuss. Probably the most reliable individual I have ever worked with.
John is a genius marketeer. In just 12 months he took our startup from nothing to being a serious contender in our industry. His broad knowledge and creative vision has added immeasurable value to our brand, and his use of social media, search engine optimization, and website analytics have pushed the boundaries of what one might consider achievable - especially for a startup like ours. John continues to manage our media presence, and through his dedication we are seeing unprecedented click-through-rates (CTR) with our web advertising with extremely low cost per click. In addition to our web presence, John has managed virtually every aspect of our brand - our philosophy, print media, product packaging and so on. He is always on point, and has become our most trusted resource.
Though we worked in different groups, our roles frequently crossed paths and I found John to be both wonderfully supportive and extremely easy to collaborate with. It was refreshing to work with someone who truly threw out the traditional and embraced his own brand of unique creativity. I would relish the opportunity to work with John again and highly recommend him.
I recently hired John, who was a colleague at a former company, to design the logo and font design for my business, Royalty IP. Working with a limited budget John's work produced a deceptively simple, but well thought, out logo and font design.
I used this as the front side of my 2-sided business cards. I am currently in SOMA in San Francisco meeting start-ups, investors and other innovative thinkers, where the universal reaction to John's art work is very positive. They often say "Wow" or "Nice" which is a good impact reaction to a piece of white card with a deceptively simple looking design.
John's a legend! Top guy, big brain, charming and definitely worth meeting up with.
John is just one of those people that you want to work with. He makes work experiences enjoyable with his upbeat manner, his immense creativity and his ability to motivate other people and make everything come to life and feel exciting. A skilled writer, artist, creative thinker and all round rock god - John knows brands backwards and could teach Proctor & Gamble how to sell washing up liquid. My vote is a yes.
I have worked with John on a number of high profile marketing and communications projects. As a Creative Director he is an unstoppable ideas engine – his passion and energy never fails to impress clients who are often swept along by his enthusiasm. This makes him a great person to have on your side going into a meeting. John is also thoughtful designer, capable of seeing the 'big picture' and then crafting cross-channel creative campaigns that will deliver results. Highly recommended.
Trying to keep up with, let alone stay ahead of the design demands of a company moving a breakneck speed worldwide is a tall order but that just what John did at SpinVox. Totally engaged and ferociously hard working, John was an integral part of a multiple award-winning team that continually pushed the limits of what could be possible in marketing and communications and did so with an infectious humour and sense of the ridiculous that made working with him a delight.
I've partnered with John on a number of projects, for very good reason. John has both the commercial acuity and the breadth of brand vision, that so many creatives in the industry unfortunately lack. His work has always been exceptional and he will remain one of the few 'go-to' guys that I trust with my own reputation in front of clients.
Ah The Colourer inner, as John calls himself. He is a creative challenger who sees things from very different angles to most of us. I really enjoy working with John and seeing how he brings people's ideas to life and delivers great solutions. He has mastered the migration from offline to online and can integrate the two effortlessly. Highly recommended.
