Andrew and I sat down to discuss everything pertaining to my startup from strategy to product development. His insight/ knowledge across multiple industries is extremely valuable. He understands the dynamics of building a business and can steer you in the "right" direction. I will definitely be reaching out to him again!
John Turner
I had the pleasure of working closely with Claire on a Marketing and Communications project. Claire constantly went beyond what was expected of her on the project - providing insight and intelligence to our project execution & delivery strategies - and supplying resources when needed. Claire is super intelligent, bright, and easy to work with.

We consulted with Andrew on CRM and how best to build value through loyalty programs in Canada. Andrew's knowledge of the industry and ability to simplify complex processes was really impressive. Andrew's energy is infectious and his workshop style approach really brings solutions to business problems to the fore.
Whether you are a start-up or enterprise level brand or agency I would definitely recommend spending some time with Andrew.
