About
I take a genuine, honest and open approach to advising clients on their websites and digital marketing in language they can understand, which isn’t always the case with other agencies with all the jargon and tech mystery which is bandied around.As the front man for the agency, I love getting involved with all aspects of our work from running the core account relationship to guidance on brand, design, technology and advising on marketing strategy and execution. I know we are getting something right when we work on one project and then we are handed a broader brief or other websites to build, those are the great days at work.
As a family man with four children (and I'm only 32!) I have to be organised outside of work as well, and my interests are very much based around the family. That means: dinghy sailing on the local lake (with our eldest), working on the allotment, bucket and spade holidays in Cornwall and attempting to follow England in the Rugby and Cricket. It all sounds very normal, but I love it.
Although XIST2 are Oxfordshire based, I feel clients get the high quality they deserve, but without the London prices and benefit from the family feel to our approach, plus the ecosystem of trusted experts we have built up over the years.
If you want to get in touch please call me on 07554 442583.
