SLINGERLAND REBIRTH
I got the call from Jose Medeles who is now crowned the Brand Manager for Slingerland. I earned a seat at the table as Senior Art Director next to Inigo Del Olmo - the company’s new Creative Director and it was go time.
I connected with Clive at Stromberg through a referral. He had some good creative - I really liked it. Besides moving forward he needed to have one person be in charge of it all. I was lucky enough to get the call. After some e-mail and a phone conversations, it was clear that we were on the same page and fast became fierce and scrappy team. A creative brief was put together with a long to-do list and the rest is history as they say.
Stromberg is one of the best client examples because aside from the great relationship formed, and marketing/branding efforts taken care, Clive is now free to push his new products to market and I’m here at the ready to take care of packaging, manuals and marketing materials as needed.
