Lisa Thompson, NZ Marketing Manager, Icebreaker
“We got St John in from Distinct to help facilitate some breakthrough thinking in regard to our NZ sales and marketing programmes. St John ran a very active and productive idea-generation session using creative, lateral workshop tools that got our brains in different spaces. Most importantly he left us with new ideas we, as a team, could build on.”
Matt Claridge, General Manager, Water Safety New Zealand
“St John came to us to help improve our brand and communication efforts. He opened our eyes to the whole business model, not just the brand. He’s always been professional and responsive to our needs – even when we haven’t always known what they really are.”
Peter Loveridge, Marketing Manager, New Zealand Post
“St John worked for us on contract through Distinct helping us with the New Zealand Post group brand which represents a challenging role but one that St John stepped up to. He is a passionate brand champion who gets to the issues quickly, challenges traditional thinking and delivers on his promises.”
Pattrick Smellie, Brand Manager, Contact Energy
“St John Craner reported to me as Brand Manager at Contact Energy for three years. St John was highly competent, strong on agency management performance, creative and technical execution and was passionate about building better brands. He was very activist. I can't recommend St John highly enough for his mix of skills and dedication to client service and brand building."
Charlie Daily, Owner, Wholly Bagels
“St John has always provided us with straight up, responsible brand advice. He’s always stressed the importance of not short-cutting or diluting the brand and focussing on the in-store experience. He’s always been proactive and passionate about Wholly Bagels and we like that.”
Graeme Clemett, Managing Director, Pivotal
“Pivotal gained tremendous value from St John’s open and honest advice – after we asked him to evaluate our brand. He worked with the team and got them to see things from a different perspective. He got us thinking about opportunities for business growth through focussing on our key brand strengths.”
