Patrick and his team won the pitch to help create a digital marketing strategy & activation plan for a strategic initiative for Castrol a few years ago. The single most important factor in the decision to award the business to Patrick was his remarkable ability to think beyond the brief and come up with a solution that addressed key business challenges in an innovative manner as well as provided inspiration for the future road map of our business as well. Patrick ensured that the entire team was excited about the project and put in 100% to ensure a successful execution as well. Patrick’s belief is simple – “if we are not excited about a product, why should our customers be? So let’s take our combined intelligence and use to identify an insight that people actually care about! ” This razor sharp ability to get to the “driving insight” combined with his exceptional strategic & creative thinking provide his clients a strong edge. Patrick was instrumental to our success- although battling serious personal calamity at the time- he did not let the ball drop – making sure he finished the job with his team to our satisfaction. I have no qualms at all in recommending his personal integrity, belief and ability in taking a project and making sure it is successful!
Patrick was the client services and strategy director for my creative agency Euro RSCG, now HAVAS. We were impressed by his train of thoughts and he was always able to bring fresh perspective on strategy. Patrick has an appreciation for our business challenges. We were able to engage him to address problems with solutions beyond just communications. He is committed and dependable to make things happen. He was instrumental in our experimentation into social and digital marketing Overall, Patrick is a high spirited and great business and marketing partner.
"Patrick was a student of mine at the New Enterprise Incentive Program. This Federal Government initiative helps Australians with entrepreneurial ideas to set up and manage their own businesses. With a success rate of 65%, NEIS has helped thousands of people succeed in business.
During the training program, Patrick had more challenges than any other student in the class due an accident which saw him hospitalized for 8 weeks. Still, he came back, finished the program, writing with one hand until he fully recovered.
A team player, with an excellent insight into customer behaviour and service, Patrick quickly connected with classmates working along with them to write business profiles and marketing plans as they too began their adventure as the nation's newest entrepreneurs.
I found Patrick to be a deep thinker and an insightful, skilled communicator."
