Brian Richards

Brian Richard's experience grew from the development of the New Zealand born company Quik Stik International which grew from zero to a world wide force in self-adhesive products.

Brian's people skills and his creative approach to change, have seen him lead a number of national interest projects. He was the principal architect behind the New Zealand Venison Brand, "Cervena:, "The New Zealand Way", national identity brand and the international marketing strategy for the New Zealand Wine Industry.

He speaks with great passion about the values of New Zealand's culture and identity in his brand development work. As a marketing strategist he works internationally, as afar afield as Northern Asia, Europe and the USA.

Brian is a "no nonsense" marketer, his material is fresh and based on New Zealand case studies. He is, in his own words, a "perfectionist" in terms of his presentation detail. He is passionate about delivering maximum impact through his equipment and carefully researched and prepared content. Within this professionalism is a tinge of humour which makes his presentation even more compelling.

He is constantly being asked for his opinions and his articles have appeared in far too many magazines to start to mention.

Brian always tailors his presentations to the needs of the company to which he is presenting, his material can be covered in a keynote presentation of up to 75 minutes or extended to a workshop format where more interaction can take place over a longer period. He can also follow up his presentation with in-house consultancy to implement the programme you require.

When your company wishes to explore their marketing position, when you need to get your team focused on a clear cut marketing strategy, or where you need someone to facilitate a thought process, you should consider Brian Richards - before your competitors do.
