'Our team loved working with Andy and learned a lot'

‘Andy’s grasp of what matters to consumers, to commercial partners and how he excludes the superfluous is brilliant. He can distill the most important aspects and drivers of success into a roadmap that others follow. His ability to focus on where teams should place their bets to get the best return on their efforts is natural and easily communicated. Whatever the medium he gets it, and more importantly he helps you get it as well’.

Keith Walker, Managing director, Specialist consumer tech, Future PLC

‘Andy has a truly magical touch on strategy, branding, content, and design. I have lost count of how many times I presented apparently new social media ideas when he would be the one who saw the value and meaning before anyone else.’

Cathy Ma, Audience Development Director at Bauer Media, NYC

‘Andy and his team were a significant factor in Vendigital’s success as an FT top 20 ranked management consultancy. Cowles Media developed a brand identity, messaging, and digital marketing that lead to a seismic shift in proposition. They delivered great work, but also a serious approach to accuracy, integrity and compliance.’

Alex Norton, Head of Marketing, Vendigital
