Strategy

“Richard is an inspiration to anyone with a dream, and the drive to realise it.”

"When we came to Palmer&Co we knew what we were building, but we were struggling to communicate why it mattered.

Ruth and Richard helped us find the story that had been there all along, the one about what's broken in the world of work, and what becomes possible when you fix it. The brand strategy process gave us the clarity to articulate our vision in a way that resonated with everyone we spoke to, investors, potential clients, and the employees we're ultimately trying to help.

The identity, website, animations and pitch deck they created gave us something we're genuinely proud of. For the first time, the outside of the business matched the ambition on the inside. Ruth is simply the best marketer I've ever worked with, and I've worked with a lot."

"Ruth was wholey responsible for creating D3O's brand strategy and executing the formation, communication and embodiment of the brand. It is difficult to find the most appropriate level of praise for her work and attitude; "Utter brilliance" is the closest I can get."

"By the end of the workshop I had a clear vision about what my business brand statement is, what values and processes underlie it and how I can make it work for me. It was great to have such a creative and supportive space in which to really focus on my own branding as it's all too easy to overlook its strategic importance when you're busy!"

In my trade I come across many people who claim to be 'innovators', 'disruptors', 'design thinkers' and the like. A precious few of them are the real thing, and Richard is one of them. He is also great to work with and an all around good guy. I'd work with him again any time!

“Ruth is a tireless self motivator whose experience, commitment, creativity and positivity helped kora come to life. She supported us through our startup phase, wearing multiple hats throughout - project management, copy-writing, web design, research, spreadsheet crunching, financial analysis, email marketing campaigns... She is painstaking in her approach to each task, and her dedication to ensuring that the task is completed on time and to the required quality is exemplary.  Do not overlook her design skills either, as these are fantastic. She created kora’s logo - which is a thing of beauty and brains.”

During my time at Sessions. Rich Palmer was a driving force in D3O's product innovation and leadership. His visionary guidance fostered a culture of excellence, pushing boundaries and inspiring teams to achieve their best.

"It was a pleasure to work with Richard and Ruth on this important project for Dormer Pramet. This was a challenging Global project with multiple considerations and stakeholders to manage. Their ability to create a strong brand strategy, and align the visual identity, tone of voice and our brand behaviours left us feeling we were in safe hands.
 
Richard and Ruth were very keen to equip the team internally with the ability to tell stories and encourage behaviours that would continue to bring the brand to life. The global launch internally and externally at the trade-show was very well received and the supporting videos helping to bring this together were superb.
 
There was a huge amount of work involved from copywriting to video, website redevelopment and design during this project, which the Palmer&Co team delivered on time and to a high quality. The President, Senior management and our parent company Sandvik were all very happy with the work."
